Like JamesB says, wiring looks fine, AN RCD basically makes sure that there is a balance between phase and neutral, there is a chance that when the controller switches between heat and cool, it is only switching the live, thus for a very quick time there could be an imbalance, and the RCD does...

Surley a keg is a great cheap boiler / hlt if you keep quiet and they are not legitimate - not that I would promote such a thing :whistle: , however at £75 a pop, you would be mad not to go for a 50L thermobox and 2 100L stockpots, at around £160 delivered. they are then legally yours, the MT...

Here are two of mine, these are 3/8", with hose tail barbs screwed in, if you use 1/2" you could screw directly onto 1/2" tap, with some form of thread lock liquid. there are no seals, it seals on the taper, and it is quite surprising that you only need to get them hand tight, i used 3/8" as i'm...

I use Cone Seat unions with hose tails, cheaper than cam locks and SS

Don't want to step on anybodies toes (MD), but I have a 500mm Sq section of 316 SS plate, 1.5mm holes 1mm thick plate. had to buy two so this one is surplus, cost me 18 quid, so up for grab if you want to make your own.

Yep, the legs are secured with 2 bolts each, and as you said can be turned either way around. You can have the larger diameter on the floor or on the pot. Just measured the ring and you get a diameter of 360mm or 420mm approx. I had mine set up - temporary just sat on a paving stone and the...

i'm changing to gas and used a large Tripod burner from Hamilton Gas products. I've got a 100l Stock pot on order but used it last week with my keg, it took about 25 mins to get to temp (50 deg to boil), there is a possibility I might need a larger one for 80L of wort, but I think it is ample...

Got Mine from Cromwell Tools, quick delivery and good prices,

My first 5 AG brews were electric, but the element played up on my 6th brew this weekend, so I have switched to Gas, I am in the process of upgrading from 5 gallon kegs to 100L Stock pots, and like the idea of gas. Making beer and playing with fire - it don't get better IMO

:cheers: Cheers AT - only just found out it won, put £16 on the nose at 5/2, £64 back. :cheers: ...... Been busy Brewing Wez's erection and both elements have gone kaput, switched to gas thanks to homebase and there extortionate bottled gas .. swings and roundabouts.... :lol:

WOW, that's some setup :clap: , and seems to work, :thumb: the only comment i'd make is you might be able to justify another pump instead of all the valves and pipe work?

Does anybody know if you can buy the above, I am using cone seat couplers for my herms set up and they are 3/8 bsp female, I want to attach them directly to the taps on my HLT, MT, and boiler so that the pipes can be removed easily for cleaning, the taps are 1/2BSP male thus need the above; I...

I Got a discount :clap: I've just ordered a 50L thermobox, and 2 100l Stock pots, 64Eur for the thermo, and 44Eur for the stock pots - not loads but a discount nonetheless

Do you mean 90 deg tank connector? I think the main reasion for using screws is to eliminate the lip inside and thus allowing you to drain the tun completley

looks good, :thumb: did you go for hacksaw slots in the manifoild?

Would a hung parliment be that bad? they would spend there time bickering like little kids and never change anything. can't be worse than letting one of them have control, if cony's get in it'll be yeah sorry about this and that were fixing what labour did blah blah and labour we'll be paying 15...

Nice work - that sparge arm is cool :thumb: - please tell me how do you make it spin and not leak?
