Where did you get your heatsink from for the SSR?

from here - https://www.robotics.org.za/SSR-HEAT but looks like they're out of stick at the moment.
Looks like communica has some stock of suitable heatsinks (depending on the form factor you're after)

Thanks for the pics - this assisted me to "hotwire" a basterfield urn for a buddy this weekend - sommer mid brew!

The element itself has 5 connections. 2 tabbed connectors for the dry boil sensor, 2 connections coming off the actual element heater, and a ground.
Essentially amounts to just connecting the live and neutral directly to the element connections (making sure that the earth stays connected!)
I used a 16amp ceramic chocolate block to make sure that that it can handle the current and the heat. A mechanical connection is much less likely to fail that a soldered connection under higher current/heat scenarios.
