But need/want to switch to electric
Will I be able to run my 95L boiler on on continues 2400wat element
And a larger one 3600 or 4800 for just heat up
Or will I need more then 2400

I would prolly go for one 2400wt and one 3600wt,use both ta heat up and switch to one only for ya run,3600wt will be fine for stripping and the 2400wt for spirit runs, you might get away with both running for stripping but that ta me is pushing it a bit .Glad ta hear its working out for you.cheers hillzabilly ;-)

haha, yes, I've been brewing all grain beer for a few years now, seemed like a good idea to add to the repertoire b-(
A scratch built copper stack on a 50L keg is all I'm going for, something that can do some rum and a few select whiskeys :handgestures-thumbupleft:
