looks a lot like the electric brewery controller, did they buy your design?

Nice overview video. Very pretty system (how long did you have to polish those kegs???? LoL). Great high level function of your setup and quick views of how you run your brews.

Hey man, hope you get this message..the wiring diagram has helped me no end thank you...I was just worried about having the 2 negatives on the HLT and Mash PID (the SSR outputs) commoned up...no issue with backfeeding from one to another when one switches on? Or are the negative terminals always negative and it just switches the positive on when it needs to? Thanks

Bad ass brother..🍻

I know I’m late to the party.. but thank you for producing this. It was very informative

Incredible system... Well done... Great inspiration for myself....favourited for future reference

"That I designed and built" (facepalm)

Nice job! Congratulations! Where did you get your diptubes? Thx in advance

Where did you get the name plates for the control panel made? They look nice.

pretty impressive ..good job ! I like the fact you showed your whirlpooling and all...question...who confident are you on welds being sanitary...i have a 3 barrel unit that I want to convert..but I dont want to fuck it up...was it hard to do right !?

I hate you. That's the best system I've seen. Kudos to you. I'd love a system like that. You lucky dog. Come on lottery.

How many liters are the kegs (i thing 75L??), and how much beer you can make. For larger kegs it will be better like 100L..??

great build by the way... a few points of note that may help... (1) you may want to shorten the pick-up tube in the boil kettle so that you pick up from the very edge of the pot vs the center... where you have it now, the tube will get a ton of the gunk from the center of the bot via the whirl pool... (2) any whirl pools typically work best when they are submerged. Your Hot Water Tank has it coming back above the liquid level. The one in the boil kettle looks low enough but points down...whirl pooling typically work best when the flow is radially "flat" vs oriented up or down... (3) during your start of the mash, it went quickly when you added water but you should try under-letting (fill the tun via the outlet) which helps absorption and eliminated dough balls. Based on your set up, it's just a matter of moving the hose. It helps immensely especially on larger grain bills rather then stirring a ton of grain to get it mixed...

That is one impressive Herms system you have no matter what some may say. I for one am very impressed and jealous. Cheers

Nice job. A lot of up-front work but I expect it is paying dividends. I like your approach where all the necessities are taken care of and no overkill. Thanks for posting that

Good work mate.

amazing

I'd love to know how much this entire set up cost.

Alex just wanted to tell you that you, your video, and you responding to so many question's here have helped a lot of us that are trying to set up our E-HERMS system's. And for all that I just wanted to say thanks my brother brewer. I put together my system in 09 to be gas fired, but am now modifying it to also brew E-HERMS, and your video here has helped me so much. I'm a keggle brewer as well. And you have really inspired me in so many direction's with my system.

Amazing, thanks for sharing!

you may want to consider in the boil kettle to change the straight NPT x Compression Straight fitting for your outlet to a NPT x 90deg Compression Elbow so that you pull off closer to the edge of your pot. it looks like your pickup may be too close to the center that you may be picking up the gunk from the center of the whirlpool.

Alex you are a brewing GOD! Great job! very well done

ёханны бабоханны!

Where I can buy brewing system?

1-What you use to polish this Kegs? 2-Where I can buy this False botton.?? Nice vid, Thanks!!

Very Very Cool System man, Cheers 🍺 🍻 🍺

Hi, Would you mind listing the parts you used for each vessel? Thanks

8 coat of paint? That s too much!

If you use a shorter thermocouple, you can mount it on the side of the tee and avoid the probe sticking out

dude you are a stud, i just watched this whole thing and was excited the whole time

Wow that is some incredible worksmanship! Awesome job!

This is amazing!

good work dude

19:30...aeration holes are clever

First of all, excellent system you've put together. I am also on the path to having a HERM system. I'm curious how long it takes to cool your wort using your HLT? I had the idea I would be building a counter flow wort chiller as most do, until I saw this video. Cheers

Just a minor point which could be a source of confusion.. A couple of times you refer to your temperature sensing elements as 'PT100 thermocouples' There is no such thing.!!. PT 100's are RTD's (resistive temperature devices) Thermocouples generate voltage (at the junction of dissimilar metals) - A completely different principle. If someone didn't understand the distinction and bought a PT100 rtd and tried to connect it to a thermocouple PID controller, they would end up confused and ultimately pissed off once they discovered it was never going to work. 2c

Great work! Please help me comprehend how it functions. What does the mashtun pid control? I would make it control the pump so than when my mash temp goes down the mashtun pid turns on the pump and makes the wort recirculate till the temp rises to where its set. I cant understand the way you have it setup... Sorry for my ignorance :)

Hi, How do you controll the scorching on boiling and thermal inertia on mashing? thanks

Hi Alex, I'm building 5500w elements now for the HLT and the BK. I like the LED bling on the element boxes. Can you provide info on what you used and how you wired this? Thanks!

Man your system is extremely impressive! Hope to build a similar system someday. Do you have an engineering background or just a great ability to research and tinker?

Absolutely amazing setup!

Wow! You be wired tight. Good job with your system and your video.

Looks great man. Excellent job with your setup. Now you just need to motorize that mill!

Excellent system. Any chance of a wiring schematic for the control box?

Wow nice work!

That's smart putting the LED on the junction box. I don't really see how anybody would go poking around a live brewery anyway but that's definitely a great last-ditch foolproof system.

Nice system. How many batches in a year would you brew? And have you noticed a large increase in your electric bill?

Great Video. I've been looking at a ton of RIMS videos lately, and yours was one of the best. Great ideas on the fermentation chamber as well.
