I am looking at adding RIMS or HERMS to my current single vessel BIAB rig. I have a long piece of straight 1/2" copper pipe laying around as well as a long piece of 1 1/2" galvanized steel pipe and most of the fittings for both. I even have a spare water heater element. Obviously I wouldn't want wort to come in contact with the galvanized pipe but would it be feasible to build a "RIMS tube" out of the galvanized pipe, then run the copper pipe through the galvanized rims tube to act as a HEX? Would a 3' or 4' HEX of this type be enough to maintain wort temps? Would I want to monitor temps in the rims tube, or on the herms output? I know it would be simpler to just buy a RIMS tube from Brewers Hardware or add an HLT with a proper HERMS coil, but If I could build something with the parts I have on hand I could spend the extra money on ingredients.
