How long do folk find these last? On my 5th brew and I just failed to get a 60 min boil. Hopefully beer will come out acceptable after 45 min boil.
I have two homebase value elements in a fv, and use 2 to get up to temp and one for boil. Last time, one cut out after 35 mins so i switched to other. Now, they cut out after 20ish mins each. I clean them well after each boil to get rid of buildup but i suspect they are past it now.
Is it worth replacing them or should I just get some shiny and a proper element? (can only use 13 amp plug socket)
