If this was my setup, I would add another pump and eliminate some of the valves and piping. You are going to find the cost for those parts are going to be more than an additional pump. You can add a float switch to the MT. Once the fluid from the HLT rises to a certain level in the MT, the valve wou...

likely the adapter is grabbing that address for itself (so that it can be configured when it is being used for something besides a computer, such as a game console or BCS) Install guide says you have to use it on a computer that is not connected to any network first: ftp://downloads.netgear.com/fil...

Can anyone provide the purpose of a contactor in a 240v SSR controlled electric brewery? Why are they needed? Are they needed?

Right on thanks for the reply! I just hope that even if I buy the latest version, when you come out with new version there is a way to update it without having to pay all over again.

The switch is located at an upward angle, so the non-metallic tool should be tilted slightly. The control...

GBrewer, where did you get that nice 3 tier stand? Did you build it? It will be a while before it is built, but I am sure I will have more questions as I go... Don Don, I did build my stand. I enjoy building stands more than drinking the beer they make. I'm actually starting another stand in a few ...

I already have a working panel but am planning on a seperate venture. I don't have any parts for the new panel. I would rather not put any extra power loads on the bcs and risk damage to the controller. I want to keep this installation as clean as possible and possibly (not for certain) use a din ra...
