So the adcraft burner can be used with a PID to be switched on and off easily?
This is interesting since theres very little info on this forum or side by side comparisions where people have used different power and watt density elements and reported a change in the flavors produced by it...I replaced the 5500 watt element with a 3750 watt boil coil, as I didn't like the flavors I was getting, and the boil with the bigger element. LOVE, the boil coil, no scorching, no off flavors. Was able to get my boil off to a nicer 12%/hr with 75% on the PID. I would still like to lower it to 10%, so I will be working on that.

I Too wondered about this and thus far im using an ULWD 4500w element which only puts out 4026 w or power and have been reluctant to replace it with something more powerful for fear that it could cause heavier flavors somehow ... if what you say is true there should be quite a drastic flavor difference on a beer produced with a boil coil vs those using lwd or even HWD elements...
I have thought about wiring 2 4500w elements and using a manual potentiometer ssvr setup to limit there top output but have not been able to find any evidence to suggest it would actually have an effect or not.
It does make sense though that it could since the heat intensity can effects the flavors of some sauces and caramel type mixtures from what Ive been told... and breweries tend to use a gentler method yet for applying heat to the wort with stem jackets so...
...I fought with youtube all weekend. Uploading a bunch of HD videos that youtube decided to make SD now.. So the video sucks, as does the editing....
You're good. The videos are HD, you just have to select that after it starts. Hover your mouse over the video panel, a gear will appear, click that and then click "quality". You'll see a bunch of video resolution options.
No, I know that. But the videos themselves are HD, but upon the upload it downrezed them( read: fuzzy, grainy). The originals are much better quality.
Gotcha. In that case, I apologize if I came off pandering or insulting your intelligence. That's not what was intended.
It's automated with the raspberry pi.

That video may help. I may not have any finished ones. Basically I set the speed on the rake via a router speed controller. When the burner is on the rake turns on, controlled via the program.
Thanks! Does it flow free, or does it create a restriction? Last question: how did you order without fittings?
