Too bad I can't get them here in Japan.

In Japan, you used US plug,right? You can order in JP amazon.

I have wired up two STCs for my brew fridges - I now have an ITC-308. Wish I had found them sooner. Now considering a 310 so I can step mash.....

Note that it is 10amp so your boiler will need to be less than 2.4KW.

That's why I got the thing I got, it does 30amp so switches my Burco no problem. Doesn't have a timer but it's really accurate and updates the temp multiple times per second.

Cheers. My elements are 3kW so was considering the SSR route but I might have a look at the one you linked when I get time!

Brewing is a great hobby for all those handy DIYers, prepared to put in the time and effort to build their own Mash Tuns, Immersion Chillers, fit brew kettles with sight glasses and ball valves etc etc

I am not one of those people. I have little to no interest in being handy. The downside of this, of course, is that people like me have to pay a little more for the privilege of someone else putting something together and flogging it. I'm OK with that. I know my limitations :)

Which is why I'm quite pleased to come across the following. A brew fridge is a natural progression down this never ending pathway. However pushing bits of wire through rubber grommets, stabbing myself with a miniature screw driver (after searching high and low for it because I haven't used it for 10 Years and then giving up and going to B&Q to buy a new one) and then risking burning down my garage after failing to read a wiring diagram, is not my idea of fun..

Yes it costs more than trailing ebay for all the individual components, but for us DIY phobes..

If its for a fermentation cabinet....a simple plug in thermostsat and a small electric heater is about as simple as it gets
