• The AUX switch powers the plug on the side of the control panel. This can
be used for a phone or laptop charger; however, it was designed to work
with our Steam Condenser Lid package.
BREWING CONTROL PANEL
Autotune your HLT PID
An ‘Autotune’ needs to be performed prior to your
first brew day. The PID will calibrate itself to give
the most efficient and accurate heating. You only
need to do this for your PID before your first brew
and then it’ll be set.
To auto-tune, bring your kettle to approximately
150 degrees, once close to this temperature follow
the bellow steps:
1. Press ‘Set’ and ‘<’ at the same time
2. Press ‘^’ three times, then ‘< ‘once, then ‘^’
three times to get 0033. Press ‘Set’
3. This will bring up FØØ
4. Press ^ x2 to get FØ2 and hit set
5. The screen will read ‘at’ (autotune) on top
with ‘no’ in green at the bottom
6. Press ‘^’ once to change from ‘no’ to ‘yes’
7. Press ‘Set’ and ‘<’ at the same time
8. ATU will blink on the bottom left of the screen
9. Autotuning will take about an hour as the PID
makes adjustments

KETTLE
PRO TIPS:
• All threaded NPT fittings require pipe tape for a leak free seal. You’ll want
to put 3-4 wraps of pipe tape on the threads in a clockwise direction. If your
fitting is not oriented correctly after tightening a combination of tightness
and amount of pipe tape will need to be adjusted.
• Make sure the element is plugged in and the power cord is fully twisted into
position. If not, the resistance will increase and can cause the plug to melt.

PRO TIP:
• To avoid needing hose clamps, we use oversized barbs so the silicon tubing
will be securely attached and creates a full port which doesn’t restrict flow.
