Second Post - About a year later

I've been working on building equipment for my homebrewing. As a tech-geek, I have been interested in adding some computer control to my homebrew process.

I have built an electric HLT (Hot Liquor Tank) using a cooler, a 240V hot-water heater element, and some other components.

The idea of using electricity to heat water, or boil wort is appealing ecomically. There are some elements of danger when working with electricity. Electricity needs to be understood, then systems centered around safe use can be designed.

More on this later...
