This is a nice, starter kit that includes an enclosure, power supply, and heat-sinks. The micro SD card needed for the Raspberry Pi comes in this kit. Recognize that the Pi 3 will take up to 32 Gig. so this SD card reaches the full capacity for the Pi 3.

I used a type K thermocouple. This may be overkill since I only see temperatures up to about 180 degF, but it is robust, accurate and will allow you to install it in hotter areas of your stove if you choose.

It turns out that the thermocouple lead in the above kit is pretty short, only about 3 feet. I'm sure I could have made it work, but I opted to get a 2 meter long lead just in case.

This is the crown jewel for my project. This linear actuator has the precise stroke (1 inch) and has built in limit switches so I don't have to worry about over-driving the unit. It operates in temperatures up to 120 deg.F as well. Progressive Automations makes a number of these with different stroke lengths.

You'll need a set of digital relays. I purchased this set of 5. Always nice to have a couples spares.

And here are some jumpers you'll need to attach to the GPIO pins of the Pi...

You'll need a project box to place the Pi and relays in. This one is slightly bigger than mine (6.5x4x2.5 inch) but would work just fine.
