A new system is born!

Automated mashing systems are common. Direct-fired gas recirculating mash systems are common enough in the USA, but not so much here. Single-vessel, direct-fired, gas recirculating mash systems are probably the smallest subset of the species. I've been brewing with the G&G 2Pot Screamer system (40litre pot with a perforated base inside a 60litre pot) on gas for several months now and love it: to the point where I prefer it over BIAB. I've been recirculating with a pump and slowly ramping mash temperatures from 55degC through to 76degC. A brief photoplay can be found on the Grain and Grape Facebook page. Next: Automating it with a PID controller and stuff...
