Total cost was USD 2197.67.
It's a 1-inch diameter aluminum rod submerged in tap water. I'm testing it as part of a immersion cooling system for homebrew (beer making). It has been submerged for 31 days. I intend to use it as part of a peltier system that will control the temperature of fermentation.
Here's a link to the rod

My question is regarding the "fuzz" in the photo. I suspect it is either:
I chose aluminum because it is generally regarded as safe for food and has much better thermal conductivity than stainless steel.
Any ideas?
Something silver/gray in color, between 1/4" and 1/2" in diameter. I'll probably end up ordering some of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000H9FW16/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=A1DJZA8PZBRKWH unless I can find something today when I go out and check the hardware stores and Home Depot.
Sooo, I've bought the dongle but have yet to set it up. I have a few questions about what I'm doing though, since I'm not really sure what I'm doing.
I'm following this
tutorial, and planning on building an antenna (info here and here)
so my qustions are:
2b) If 1/4" rods are a problem, will these be OK? I am assuming so, but just want to be 100% sure there isn't anything I'm missing or didn't know
Thanks! I'm excited to get started!
What are people thinking in terms of the rod? I found a few cheap ones on amazon that could probably be clipped at a hardware store:
