Using
Your Trio
Control Panel
Autotune the Control Panel
Before you get started, make sure to auto-tune
your HLT PID controller. This ensures proper system
calculations and helps the heating element run as
efficiently as possible.
NOTE: you only need to auto-tune your HLT PID
before your first brew
1.
Fill your HLT 75% full with water.
2.
On the PID, press the up arrow until you hit 150
degrees Fahrenheit.
3.
Press
set
to lock in the temperature at 150F.
4.
Turn the HLT element switch on to start
heating your water to 150F.
5.
Once water reaches 150F, press
set
and
<
at
the same time.
6.
Press

This will bring up FØØ.
8.

The screen will read AT (Auto Tune) on top with
“no” in green at the bottom of the screen.
10.
Press

to change from “no” to “yes”.
Controlling Your Boil
Ready to boil? The PID has 2 temperature control
options, Auto and Manual. Auto allows you to set a
specific temperature, and the heating element will
hold the liquid at that temperature. Manual mode
will allow us to control heating output by percentage
instead of actual temperature. This works similar to
dialing your gas burner up or down, but on a numeric
scale of 0-100.
We recommend moving your Boil PID to
Manual mode, and keeping it in that mode at all
times. To move from Auto to Manual, follow the
steps below.
1.
Start on the temperature readout screen,
and press
set
until you see AMRS.
2.
Press up to change from Auto to Manual,
and press
set
again.
3.
Click
set
twice to bring you to the Manual
temp screen, and set your temperature.
To begin your boil, make sure your elements are
completely covered in liquid. We recommend
setting the temperature to 100% output until
you are at boil, then dial down to 70-80% for the
duration of your boil.
11.
Press
set
and
<
at the same time.
12.
“ATU” will blink on the bottom left of the screen.
13.
Auto Tuning will take about an hour as the PID
makes adjustments. Auto Tuning is complete
when “ATU” stops blinking!
