This kit will fix a Mash & Boil that starts to throw an E4 error code near the end of the boil, which often means the Thermal Cutoff Switch is failing or has changed tolerance. Keep in mind the E4 error code can also be caused by using large hop bags inside the unit during the boil, which restrict normal boil circulation and cause the bottom area where the heating element is to get to hot and trip the switch.
This includes a Thermal Cutoff Switch and needed thermal grease for replacing the switch.

Q: Does this work on the grainfather? I'm looking for KSD301-pr 125C. I can't see the part number in the picture. Thank you.
A: No. This is only for the Mash and Boil. What you want is item Z43 Grainfather Thermal Switch.

Q: I'm curious what the specifications are for this? Amps and cutoff temp? Wondering if it might work as a spare for the Grainfather as well....
A: 140 Centigrade is where it shuts off. We have tried, but it does not fit the Grainfather, which has a switch that mounts a little differently.

Q: Will this also work in the Robobrew V2?
A: No, this is a different switch
Spare Parts
I have not installed this item yet. I purchased it in case I need it down the road. If the mash and boil is obsolete in the future I will have parts to keep mine going.
