I aquired a used no-name analog temperature control with a solid wire from the unit. While I was trying to work the kinks out of the line and bend to fit around teh door of my fermenting fridge the metal line broke :'(
So I am looking for a new temperature control. Ideally I would like to wire it for both heating and cooling. What brands/models does everyone recommend? Are there any benifits of one product over another?
Thanks
If you’re looking to do two-stage temp control I would recommend the Ranco digital control either through MoreBeer or Brewmasters Warehouse (cheaper). I just bought one myself.
There’s also the digtal Johnson controller but it will only control one heating/cooling device. There is the analog version or the digital version. I prefer the digital version though since it seems to have a better accuracy for temp control for fermentation. I use the analog version on my keggerator.

If you can handle the simple wiring this place is cheaper.
