Mashmaster temp controller kit.

G'day all,

To try to fix my inconsisent water strike temps and resulting mash temps, i have purchased a Mashmaster Temp controller kit for my urn....

I am expecting its arrival tonight (along with a bag of galaxy hops), and would like to know whether it is wired up the same way as the fridgemate? I have managed to wire up the fridgemate before and have the wiring diagrams, so if its the same, i'm laughing... Can anyone shed some light?

From memory it was a little different - requiring a little more work

I looked the schematics... which was ok... i understood that...

But both the wires coming out of the display box, and the wires coming out of the transformer are the same farken colour so you cant tell which of the two is supposed to be positive, and which on is negative... unless it doesnt matter... somehow i thought it would...

It seems as though the whole thing runs off AC power, so the orders of the wires isnt critical... thank god for brothers who are electrictians
