    Adding salt

    As in table salt to drinks youve bought from shops to drink rather than anything youre brewing yourself? Wouldnt matter really what you add to the finished product right before you drink it as long as it tastes fine. Yeast shouldnt react and produce off flavours or autolyze or any of those...

    Thanks for all your help fellas! Changed it so that the STC-1000 monitors the hlt water instead of the HEx out and am getting much more stable temps with my system but the real issue i came across today was that my stc-100 controller out of the box was off by a whopping 2.5*c+! So my tried and...

    I think youre very right and sort of what i suspected happening. I think the over and undershooting is worse too since my mlt is a super effective igloo cooler so isnt losing any heat and is gaining heat very fast as well as the lag issues

    Ill look into it thanks. Mmm i expected better results myself but that was only the first run using it so ill have to work at it i guess My pump is capable of 19L/min but i throttle it back a fair bit to avoid compacting the grainbed, couldnt put an accurate number but id say 3-9L/min

    Thanks, is it possible to wire a pid in anything other than a less than portable control box? Something the size of the stc controller im currently using? Thanks yob, ill thinking of using a smaller heat exchanger eventually but wouldnt a larger mass hold temperatures better and be less prone...

    Hi all, done a bit of searching but cant for the life of me find anything that address's my question.. I recently put together my ghettolicious herms system (see images). I'm using a pre wired stc-100 with the temperature probe mounted on the Heat exchange outlet which doubles as my immersion...

    Not technically illegal unless you know youre buying illegal kegs, youve got plausable deniability in most instances of gumtree/ebay kegs though More a civil thing than criminal though, essentially one can't sell what he doesnt have true title to, so you wont cop fines or penalties for buying a...

    Its one of the brass compression fitting's sold at masters, has a little compression sleeve on the inside that compress's and seals around the probe. Airtight, but dont think its coming off any time soon without scratching it up pretty good! I think these fittings are commonly used for...

    Dedicated Herms Guide, Problems And Solution Thread

    Anyone ever ran an stc-1000 or any other probe into their Heat exchanger with a compression fitting like this? I use my Chiller as my herms coil and am tinkering with different ways of mounting it inline just before it reenters the MLT. Any possible problems?
