    Tight Arse Herms Setup

    I did some experimenting late last year pumping water through my MT then through an old immersion chiller sitting in a temp controlled HLT but didn't get the control I needed and it sure took far too long to come up to temp and also too long to step up in temp.

    Tight Arse Herms Setup

    I jumped on tonight to ask what HERMS owners were using as a HE and this topic was alive - brilliant! I had an electric jug noted among my possibilities - it's good to see it's a workable solution. However, if I may slightly hijack the topic, what else are people using as a HE? Cheers, L.
