Oh man, I'm so jealous you can have Bells Two Hearted on tap. One of my favorite beers I can't get here in NorCal.

Which version are you using? I'm having to restart the flowmon services pretty often. Flowmon is stopping randomly for me. It resolves if I go to the management portal and restart flowmon services. It doesn't stay restarted too long.

Reviving a dead thread. Has no one in the last 4 years come up with a recipe? OP, what did you use. I'd like to brew this...

You won't be disappointed in the meter. I got a couple more meters with similar results. I don't know which version you are planning to install. If you use the RandR+ version it takes advantage of MySQL. He has analytics on the management portal that give you pour history, beer statistics...

Welcome, I'd go ahead and load the sample data and configure it for 6 taps. You don't need flow sensors to display information on each tap and it doesn't affect anything. You also need flow meter support if you want to add temp sensor. I've done some research on the newer versions of the...

Did you try setting up 8 taps and see if it numbers properly? If so, you can set up a 'blank' tap in that position.

You can edit out the tap numbers I put in at the bottom of Index.php. You will see where I set up a table with them. Just put a # in front of lines 256-265. Yours looks a bit wonky, did you happen to select vertical in the config screen? If not, then set up 8 taps with the last one being...

It's in var/log

You set up the screen saver in the preference tab on the linux home screen. So go to preferences > screensaver > xscreensaver. Mine worked immediately. You did install xscreensaver, right?

You aren't wrong. When I saw your power post I bought an Uno power supply. It wasn't a big thing for me, since RandR+ said it would all get decremented from my kegs anyway. I then looked at my logs tonight since I started using the power supply and no more split pours. Just found out...

Yeah, I said that I thought it was fine to power the Uno with the USB, while simultaneously complaining I was getting weird double pours reported on my taps. Guess what solved that problem? At least for our application, the Uno needs the external power supply.

Dude I feel your pain on 8 taps. Check out what RandR+ did to help me get 8 taps on one screen. I modified it to get the temp and last pour too. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/version-2-release-raspberrypints-digital-taplist-solution.487694/page-138#post-8776711 I have 4 extra...

There doesn't seem to be any less expensive SwissFlow meters out there. Check out my post on some cheaper meters ($10) that seem to have upped the pulse count per gallon...

Thanks for this info day_trippr, I'm making some progress. I got the python script working to play mp3 sounds you used in your example. I used the echo routines skill to respond with my text input in her voice. The Copper Cat Brewery Band stage mike recorded it and convert it to an mp3...

On another note. I have an Amazon Echo Show next to my taps. I'm going to try to use bluetooth to set it up as a speaker. I thought I'd try to capture some wave files from Alexa and randomly play them to it. It would be funny to have Alexa make snide comments to my friends when they...
