Advise on a keggle build.

[Motorbikeman]

Thanks for all the advise so far. 

My next project is a cheap simple temperature control for my keg HLT.   Was a bit tricky to get the strike temp spot on on my last brew. I was turning it off and on manually.     

I have two 1500w elements fitted . Together pulling 12.5amps

The stc1000  spec is 10 amp so I may need a relay im guessing. 

DOes anyone have a circuit plan for this sort of thing?   Or a better option of temp control?   

[dcalnan]

I found this schematic online, looks like it will do the job,

[nigel_c]

You could just have one wired to the stc. One would be enough to maintain temp once you l hit it. Turn one off and let one run off the remp controller.

[Motorbikeman]

is the stc1000 temp probe waterproof in hot water?

[Leann ull]

not recommended in boiling water you need a thermowell

Lads anybody know how to buy from back electric? Do you have to phone the orders through? The alternative website
http://www.heatingelementcompany.co.uk/ does not find those 2.75kw elements (or at least I could not figure out the magic combo on their search function).

Quick word of warning. 

They send an invoice separately to your parcel motel.   Costing another 4 quid with parcel motel.    Make sure you request the invoice to be sent together.

Problem was with the website not working correctly on a mobile web browser. Using the search with a desktop browser it works (sort of . Thanks for the nudge.

Spares to go sell the 1500w ones.  I got two of them already.     I have them on my HLT.   

I have one spare backing nut if you need it ..  for free.     Let me know I will post it on.

Ah I see I actually want the larger ones. Explains why previous ones I bought were so slow to heat stuff up.

Hola.org I was sure you were in IT

Hola.org I was sure you were in IT

Did not realise their site was country locked hence the query Have never ordered from them so will be using a proxy to execute the order.
