Wow, what an end of year it has been! Over the past couple of weeks I've been working hard at remodeling a room in my basement to be an all electric brewery. This project began really about a year ago when I began getting fed up with using propane and being at mercy to the outside elements.
I started by using a lot of inspiration from the electric brewery. He has some really easy to follow documentation that I used to modify the system to meet my needs. I have two PIDs on the box. One controls the element, the other is just for temperature monitoring out of the mash tun. I'm hoping this will let me maintain a nice mash temp throughout and easily go up to a boil.
The next true test will be doing a brew day. I have one (or two!) slotted up so I'll have beer in kegs before the new year's eve. Life is good! Happy brewing
