I'm in! Thanks.

Second the recommendation for Centennial Blonde.

Couldn't agree more with the last post. Original poster is lucky to be alive as that circuit is a death trap; 240 volts going through an completely unsuitable switch that he was directly touching. Please chuck everything attached to this setup and start over with some professional guidance.

Is is just me or are the image files missing/broken. I can see the videos but not the pictures.

My guess is that your controller is configured to vary the voltage of the signal going the SSR (you described as controlling the "gain"). Therefore, if you set it at 50%, then it sends 50% of the voltage to SSR which would not be enough to switch it off. The duty cycle of your SSR needs to...

Count me in! Thanks.

Trash compactor bags. They are a heavier gauge plastic to accommodate the compaction and resulting heavier loads. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Brute-Super-Tuff-20-Gallon-Size-Compactor-Bags-20-Ct/10997361

I'm also in Chandler (Chandler mall area). I'm just finishing up an eBIAB system which means I'm not mobile for brew days so I'm not sure how that's going to work out. I'd be willing to host a session when we get back into suitable weather.

Sorry, just re-read your post and realized you were referring to the switches, not the temp sensors. May I ask what you have connected to line 3? That pin is essentially the output of the switch and should be connected to whatever you are trying to turn on (typically a relay). If so, what...

Sounds like the sensors are only operating in parasitic mode? My first impression is it has to be something in the connections. There should be one and only one resistor between the "Data" and V+ line for the entire chain. Another thing that Jim has emphasized is that the sensors should be...

Couldn't hurt! I'll try that tonight. My recollection is that the debug .ino was generated before Jim put the debug code into the main .ino but, again, can't hurt.

Correct. I'm using the 3.1. The PRJC page for the EEPROM doesn't mention the 3.1 but I assumed that the 3.1 would act the same in that case. Anyway, I tried the EEPROM Clear on both my brew system and the test setup and no change. Browser still hangs when pushing the "Modify" button...

...on the other hand, it does say this on the PJRC site: https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_EEPROM.html Will still give it a try. Thanks!...Jon

That sounds promising. I often have big issues starting up the teensypi after making a hardware tweak. This may be the fix. I'll try it out this evening!

No, I've never done that. Would I use this method: http://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/EEPROMClear or is there an easier way?

I'm using the model B (https://www.adafruit.com/product/998). I have the B+ but haven't used it due to the issues you saw with the Teensynet; may use it with my Teensynet setup and the B+ specific RPI image if I can't get it up on the Galileo (which isn't going well so far...) The PID...

I'm having trouble with the PID function. I finished my brew system and started testing. Everything seems to load correctly and I was able to start an action and bring the kettle to a boil without issue. When I tried to test the PID, it let's me access the PID setup page but when I push the...

Hello: I'm not the expert here but just to throw in my two cents: When I have that issue I find that it's one of two issues: a) my sensors/switches are wired incorrectly or aren't connect; or b) I need to reflash the Teesny. You do need to have at least one sensor and switch wired to the...

Hello Again: You noted earlier in the thread that you were working on some guidance for converting TeensyPi to TeensyNet. Is that still on your roadmap? I have the Teensypi running as a fermentation fridge controller and am in the final stages of using it as a brew controller (control box...

I did find some blue terminals sized to fit what I believe to be .187" tabs (versus the .250" tabs that seem to be more readily available). They are a secure fit. Still wondering if it's okay to use fuse holders that will hold 1A quick blow or 5A or 10A fuse in line after a 15a supplementary...
