OCD much.? hahahaYeah I agree... I wish I didn't open the can of worms!

So I finally got around to producing this video you prompted me to actually make it thanks for the suggestion! Cheers! -Brian

Looking forward to this as well. I've got the nuts and bolts of how to put it together, just seeing someone wire one from start to finish would be a great comfort and resource as I put my long delayed panel together.
Subscribed to the YouTube channel. This is going to be so helpful to me. I've been eyeing up this kit for a while but have been hesitant with the wiring myself.
Really sweet work again Brian! I don't know if people appreciate this, but you clearly put a lot of work into proper capture and production. The lighting, audio, and scripting are really top notch. Congrats and keep up the great (and no doubt laborious) work!
No schivt Sherlock!

You know I was kidding right? Like Captain Obvious!
My hat is off to you, that was a huge endeavor to take the time to document the complete wiring process. This will help countless brewers out there looking to take the plunge into building this kind of system! Your the man!
John
Agreed!
Glad I found you on YouTube. I have an automated system (dead) that has most of the components. I run 20 gallon system (3 pots) to yield 12 gallons for my Blichman 14 gallon conicals (been brewing since '91). Anyway I want to gut my system changing it to PID control (I run HERMS exclusively). I cannot seem to get to the schematic/electrical drawing to print it, and I noticed that your HERMS parts list only has two of the PID units listed. Thanks for all the work and links for surportive purchasing, I will do that as soon as I finish my buy list.
Ok the latest in the Series is out. Covering the HERMS control panel this time. And an announcement regarding the series.

HUGE THANKS to Doug Again!! @doug293cz you are the man!

Don't have an Aussie (or European) version of this yet, but might be able to get one done over the next few days. I won't call out plug/receptacle types, since I am not familiar with what's used in Australia. Do you happen to know what typical breaker sizes are in the 20 - 60 amp range?Great video series.
Would you or Doug have an Australian 240V version of this circuit diagram?

I am checking out the different designs for control boxes and I want to keep it simple since I only plan on using one heating element and one pump. The only problem I am running into is that my 240v 30A GFCI circuit is 3 wire. In your schematics, I see you have a 4 wire setup and can use one hot and one neutral to get 120V to power the pump and the SSR. In short, am I screwed? I do have a separate circuit that is 120 nearby, but it would mean I would have to run two different power inputs into the box that I would like to avoid, if possible. What are my options? Thanks in advance!
