I bought a spike kettle a while ago with an extra 1.5” TC port I had intended on using for an electric element to help stabilize mash temps. Just wanted to know if anyone has a recommendation for an element/controller combo for this purpose?
Not really trying to boil but if it helps to reduce propane consumption that would be a big plus. Currently looking at the brau supply element with cord for $100. And maybe the inkbird IPB-16S controller (~$100?).
Seems like I can get a separate unit for mashing for about the same price nowadays, digiboil or whatever but I’d like to finish out my kettle and just stick to what I have for the lowest price possible.
Thanks for any input.
