      Hi all,
      Here is my first post on this great forum.
      
      I have designed, for my son, a BIAB system.
      
      eBrewery.jpg
      
      It's composed of :
      - one 70 liters stainless steel kettle
      - a 12V recirculating pump
      - a 4500W electric heater, controled via a 40A Solid State Relay
      - a temperature probe
      - all this controled with a custom ESP8266 wifi board
      - and an android application ;)
      
      ESP8266 handles all the sensors and controls the PID temperature regulation
      Android App does all the glue and GUI
      
      - import...

      Hi JP,
      
      That looks like a lot of work... I applaud your efforts.
      
      What was your EIB number (Efficiency Into Boil), and your wort OG? I take a more basic approach where the mash gets agitated with a potato masher a few times throughout the mashing process. Did not want to have a pump and additional hoses to set up and clean. For your additional labor, hope you can get at least a couple points higher efficiency numbers... ;) You may, and you may not. ;)
      
      Thanks for sharing. You must be involved...
