Hi all,
I currently have a very simple recirculated mash setup. A pot with a false bottom, pump and temp sensor (using an STC-1000 in a T piece as the wort re-enters the mash tun).
I am currently having to manually light the burner under the pot every so often to keep the mash temp where I want it.
What I would like, is either a pilot light and then a gas solenoid that is temp activated (from STC-1000), or if not a pilot light (which I don't like the idea of as it could be blown out), then I was thinking a piezo style ignitor that clicked on for 5 seconds or so when the gas solenoid turned on.
Is what I'm asking something that has been done before? I know there are a lot of pilot light options. But for fear of the pilot getting blown out, I'd really rather an ignitor setup that clicked on for +5 seconds....
Thoughts?
Cheers
Hunt
