If you are comfortable with electricity, get one of these http://www.screwfix.com/p/dual-safety-thermostat-7/21275
and one of these http://www.screwfix.com/p/tank-coupler-15mm/82376
Cap an 8" bit of 15mm copper pipe, mount inside tank using tank coupler, put thermostat probe inside pipe(from the outside!), set to 65C and use it to switch the supply of the steamer. Don't forget to earth it and insulate it well! Dont see why it would not work.

Good score!

For any UK based readers having difficulty finding these in food grade, you might consider copper water heating tanks,- they are about the same size when you cut the top off and despite the price of copper cabn still be picked up used quite cheaply.
