Hi All,
I've been merrily reading up on building my own mash tun / boil kettle (going single vessel BIAB initially). I want to be able to brew 25-30L final volume.
I'm trying to decide on a couple of things.
1. Should I go for a Buffalo 40L water boiler, drilling out and fit a temperature gauge and pipe to counter flow chiller.
or
2. Buy something like this (56 L SS pot) http://www.the-home-brew-shop.co.uk/acatalog/Stainless-Steel-56-Ltr-Electric-Boiler.html#.VZ6djmAqnbk and then buy a PID/SSR to control the element temperate?
If (2) then would this be ok: REX-C100 ? or should I fork out for Sestos Digital Temp Controller D1S-VR-220 plus PT100 Probe plus SSR plus Heat Sink ?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Andy
