just did a 30min google and youtube research on stc1000 and wiring them up. thank you.
i will defiantly be getting one of those. i wonder if it can work with heating up the mash/wort. um boiling grains in pot/keg. still not familiar with right term there but im now wondering if i use the stc1000 can i use the heating output and set the temp to say 65 degrees or what ever i need. Like a PID controller in a way? my mate that checked my power controller kept trying to get me to make a PID controller as they are safer in his opinion.
basically wondering if i can use it to cycle the power on/off with the FSD element to boil my grains? considering it wont be reducing power output i dont initially see a need for a fan in the controller as its only an on/off cycle?
i guess ill start a thread for this in the electrical section when the time is right
easiest set up would be a 50L pot from a&j trading in the valley fitted with an electric element.
did a google, found them but no webpage at the moment. you know of any prices of their 50L pots?
If you want to get some beer down straight away try the mangrove jacks kits in the pouch. Kits are miles above what they used to be and when i tasted one recently i didnt believe it was just a kit. I think the kits come with hops and yeast as well. They are a little more expensive than those ones in the can but they shit all over them in terms of quality. Im 90% sure annerely brew store carries the pouches.
been googling brew kits also. found a tooheys extra dry one i might give a go. $40 once i guy the extract dextrose some dry thing yeast and hops. 22L it said.
this is it here. ill give a couple a go while i get my key or pot ready for action. plus ill be a newb 8-}
going the BIAB way. :handgestures-thumbupleft:
is it just my initial research or is an all grain beer cheaper than their extract kits/recipes ?
Cheers
