    Food Proofer Conversion is happeneing

    Thanks Marc, I know they also have material that is 0.06" if I recall that was about 50.00 for the piece I need cut to size.  As luck would have it my dad has an old stove out at the farm so I will "borrow" the parts from it.  I am going to be price checking some of the electrical components...

I am planning on using two range top elements for my heating source.  Will...

    Food Proofer Conversion is happeneing

    Hey Lance, All really good info.  You are correct the bottom part of the cabinet is removable and does contain all of the heating elements and the fan.  Mine is all still functioning, so just figured leave it in and use the existing fan that is already connected to the plenum that is running up...

    Food Proofer Conversion is happeneing

    I have spoke with Metro Industries who who makes the unit and they told me that the gasket will easily withstand temps in the 225-250 range.  so it should be fine, but is something I will keep an eye on once the unit becomes operational.  For my purposes I do not think I would ever go over the...

    Food Proofer Conversion is happeneing

    Hey Marc, I understand what you are saying.  I would still be getting PID from Auberins so would think that I would have any tech support that I need.  I am in Canada and with a 1.35 exchange rate to buy it complete costs me over 600.00 plus shipping.  I am very confident that I will be able to...

    Food Proofer Conversion is happeneing

    Thanks for the drawings.  My line of thinking was to run two elements to get the smoker up to the big wattage, the primary being a 2600 watt element and the secondary being a 1500 watt.  Having that kind of heating power I would not use either of the heating elements that are factory installed...

    Food Proofer Conversion is happeneing

    Hi Marc, I was looking at the plug and play options on Auberin's website looking for a controller that would suit my needs and called them again  as I had some questions.  I must say Auberin's tech support is fantastic, they are very knowledgable and easy to talk to and It was the tech guy that...

    Food Proofer Conversion is happeneing

    So after doing more research and reading I have decided on my heat source and controller.  I am going to go the 220v route, and have 3000 to 4000 watts of heating power inside.  I know this is more than what is needed but will ensure quick warm ups and fast recoveries when the door gets opened...
