A friend of mine is working on a verison which will be controlled by an arduino, it will have additional features. Since he is planning everything in CAD I stopped drawing my version. I will post as soon as there are news.

The new version 2.1 which is coming soon wil support different hardware devices. This includes using GPIO or PiFace for directly driving the SSR's as well as some USB plugs. If you want to drive other hardware just write to the developper, is open for everything and does also support new...

I am not the developer of this software which means I do not really have an influence on such things. Currently the script asks you if you want to update, so at least you get warned ;-) Details can be found here: https://github.com/Manuel83/craftbeerpi

Install craftbeerpi again with the autostart option, i would even remove it completly an pull it again from github. This should take much less time since the basic updates have already been made and all requirements (almost) have been installed. Traceback (most recent call last): File...

The install script which is included does not only install all necessary requirements but also does a complete update of the os itself (sudo apt-get updaten / sudo apt-get upgrade). Depending of the number of updates required and your internet speed this can take quite some time on the initital...

Thanks. The rollers in that mill are 70mm, about 2,75 inches. The advantages of such big rollers is that they don't need to be synchroniced by a gear cause the grain gets pulled in very nicely. The disadvantage is that you need quite a powerfull motor. My motor is an SEW 400 Volts with...

Yes, I just had a look ad all of ClaudiusB'2 videos and believe me, I am impressed as well! :mug:

Thank you! At the moment there are no plans to sell the machine, but I am in contact with some home-brew-suppliers. However, you wan be able to buy this anytime soon. Somebody is drawing this in 3D (CAD), then it should get simple to reproduce it.

I just uploaded a new video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwk6yL3mSro&feature=youtu.be I hope you like it :mug:

My MattMill Compact looks like this:

Thank you for the positive feedback! No I don't build my cars myself, the germans do that better :D No, I don't have access to a decent shop, I don't even have a workbench. I do this with common home tools in the apartment I live in on the floor. The only tool I bought for the project is a set...

Hello Everybody. I have been working on a labeling machine for quiet a while. I have gone through multiple prototypes and I have documented all of them in the german forum. Since it is no "basically finished" and working I thought it might help to post some informations in english. Video (I...

Hello Everybody. I Am not very active in this forum, but I am in the german home brewing forum (www.hobbybrauer.de). A while ago I posted about a software which I had found on this forum and how I adapted it (https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=451059). I never really got to publish...

I am working on cleaning everything up, at the moment I have made such an mess I don't think this would be usefull. As soon as have done this I will ask for permition to publish this.
