    30A 240v 3 wire control panel

    Right on Doug, we all need to help each other...at 240V this is some pretty dangerous stuff. This has been one of the most rewarding projects I've ever taken on...& educational! I paint cars for a living!

    30A 240v 3 wire control panel

    All I did was delete the HLT from the original design, how does that change the need for relays? How would I wire it with just one relay?

    30A 240v 3 wire control panel

    Two relays seems like a good idea according to Kal from theelectricbrewery.com. I modeled my diagram after his,eventually I will get into all grain, then there will be 3 relays. He knows more about this stuff than I do. One relay might have worked but I'm not sure how to wire it that way. I'll...

    30A 240v 3 wire control panel

    Unfortunately, the switches I have are single pole, but I'll order a double pole, no voltage to either bus makes sense. I also can just unplug the control panel from the wall, but I dig safety! I wired the panel like my last diagram & it all worked great once I changed a few things on the PID. I...

    30A 240v 3 wire control panel

    After even more research, switch controlling the element makes a lot of sense. I updated my diagram, I assume just a switch on the bus 1 line would do the trick.

    30A 240v 3 wire control panel

    Lots of 240v 4 wire set ups out there, if only I did more research before I built my house! I have a 3 wire, no neutral. I bought all my components & the book from theelectricbrewery.com, they have been great to work with. Is there anyone out there willing to take a look at my wiring diagram? I...

    boil keggle siphon

    Don't I want oxygen introduced to the wort at that point?

    boil keggle siphon

    I'm building my first keggle, sounds like most use a ball valve with a dip tube to drain the boil kettle into the fermentor. Is there anything wrong with just using my auto siphon that I use to rack to my secondary. The wort would be cooled already and it would be one less hole in the pot. Am I...

    No sign of fermentation in 20 hours

    Make sure your stopper is tight. I've been brewing for 20+ years on and off...and I just got caught on that one. Never assume...ever

    So im in the process of building my rig...

    Yes I'm using propane....I want to pipe it to the burners with copper. I think it will look cool with the stainless steel stand.

    I have the same burners for the rig I'm building. How far from the pot are you going to mount the burner?

    dishwasher sanitation

    My dishwasher has a sanitation cycle that I've used to sanitize my bottles & it works. I've always rinsed the bottles under cold tap water just to cool them down a bit. Is that necessary? Will the heat give my beer off-flavors?
