Looking good Dan!
Using the STC like thing for the HLT are you just putting the temp probe directly into the HLT. You said its a 30A controller - is it a modified STC or something different?? ANy ideas whether a normal STC temp probe is happy being in mash and sparge temp water??!!
Also - what are you using for wort cooling? I think I remember you have a soak-away to drain your water(??) (I started reading this post ages ago) does it cope with the water? I'm considering rigging up an old square sink and just drain the water onto my drive at the back of my house.... Might work..... :wha:

The etc is the 30a single relay controller so will only heat or cool not both. I made a small copper thermowell for the probe to sit in and works fine.
I have a twin coil I/c and runs straight into the sink. Can have the tap on full for half hour without any problems.

I'm getting a little concerned with trend of having end of garden sheds with insulation & heating...
You know Police Helicopter's have taskings is to look for sheds with heating - if your rudely awoken one morning in your bedroom by 10+ people in riot gear standing over you dont be surprised! And remember that Hops are of the same familiy as Marajuana, therefore the doggies will make a-b line to your stash of EKG's! :lol:
Might be worth chatting to your Neighbourhood bobby and offering them a free sample - always works a treat :

Being new to brewing and this forum, I have only just seen this thread. Wow, what a great project and nicely done sir!! You have given me inspiration to try something like this myself, but will have to use part of my garage......
