Be aware of buying this as a "complete unit". It doesn't have the parts to use it per the Brewhaus intrstuctions. POT mode is fine, Reflux you'll need more hose. Without informing consummers. A real sham or shame?

I believe what Rick is referring to is using the water control system. While most users just cut the supplied return line to allow for the two returns created when using the water control system, for some this is not a viable option. We have made an adjustment to the water control system to resolve this issue.

"Maybe I'll use the hose from Ultimate Siphon for the extra return hose. I'll need to tie that wiggling thing down to an icejug-berg. Almost had small flood when one of regular hoses loosened up from getting warm watered. For now pot mode is working perfectly.

From what I've been reading, when using in reflux temp control at the top of the column is very important.

Thanks, Rick2014"

The water control valve is essential if you ask me, without it it would just run to cold as i have to run at about 1/4 open.
