Looking good. I like the covers for your pumps. Do they just slide on and off? Another question if you don't mind. Do you just whirlpool with your counterflow chiller? It looks like you start with tap water for chilling then switch to ice water correct?

Got the control panel done and some wiring. Still need pilot lights for the burners. Once I get my shed built I am going to set up the stand and plumb in a sprinkler valve on the water line. I will have a float valve in the HLT that will control the valve to fill with water. The float valve will also be used to control the HLT pump during sparging.

I love how you turned that canister into your control panel.

Thanks for the pics...

Thanks for the compliments guys.

I was going to have a custom plate made for the control panel from a guy I know that does work for hotrods and off-road rigs, but I think I may just etch in some simple labels, then sand down the back side so its rough, then add some back lighting. Ive done this in car audio installs and it looks sweet. 8)
