Stainless Herms Coil Released

[Online Brewing Supplies]

Ramp up speed is quicker than I thought it would be. The rocket works really well. I've actually built a HLT (old coopers fermenter) with an element from the same kettle used in the rocket. It takes 25L sparge water 30 mins from 28C to 78C.

[kelbygreen]

yes cant see it being close to that. But least that price will leave you with alot of bling in the brewery Will be looking out for the price when it does come about though.

I was thinking the controller unit will do 3 times more than an stc1000 so the price should be relative :icon_cheers:

Braumeister owners - if you don't want to know the price, look away now ..........

Nice red rocket there BBB,
I'm interested in building a similar contraption and was wondering if it is a completely sealed unit, and if so, how do you go about relieving the pressure inside?

 

[brettprevans]

as Brad pointed out, price will depend on what parts of the kit you need. Ill only need herms 'rocket', controller and temp parts. Ive got a brewery and pumps etc so its wont be anything like $3500.

JDW81 - not completely sealed. Just has a small hole in lid to let the steam out. Simple as. Wait for Nev's pdf on the build.

I would recommend that you use Express from WA as standard satchel post times can be ordinary. We process the orders very quickly and then its at the mercy of Australia post.

Our head office is in Bibra lake and we'd be lucky to recieve goods in 4 days from them using standard post. Even express can take (max) 2 days

At home I had both a KMart (Homemaker) and also a Big W (Abode) kettles.
(was going to use the elements for my HLT but ended up with the KegKing ones)

I noticed the Homemaker was a tight fit, whereas the Abode seems to fit nice. I may keep the kettle and not worry about building the rocket for now to see how it goes. I need to build a basic stand to lift it just of the heating element and all is done.




Nev, was there a reason you moved away from the kettle install?
