Playing around with this tonight, I think i've got my python code that will gather my data from my remote sensors, and i'm ready to return it to cpbi, but I dont see in the w1_thermometer.py file where i'm to replace the methods listed. I see some similar method calling available. Right now...

No Joke I was JUST looking at this last night. Originally I was going to write some custom scripts that would mount the one wire device folders into a custom folder and then point the cbpi python files to look there instead. This may be a much cleaner way to do it. Once i get something...

I'm using these relays for them as well. You can go on ebay and find a 4 relay board that has jumper pins and transistor switches to isolate your RPi pins for like 5 bucks. Here is a link to one of a million listings out there. a 4 relay board would work well for most applications. if you...

good news is that it makes it very simple to mimic a sensor. The bad news is that changing its location in the scripts to another location locks it into that location without rewriting changes to the python script. Going to have to rethink this one for a while. maybe I can do a symbolic...

Ran into a little snag after a bit of testing. I have my esp8266-01 modules connected to my ds18b20 and they are serving up web pages fine. started to write the scripts that would run periodically to gather this information from them and then drop that information into a file. The problem i'm...

Yeah, sorry, inches. I mount the heat sink on the outside of the box. gives it a bit of an industrial look. then I put the relays mounted through drilled holes through the steel. To each their own though for the look they want. I probably could get all of the heat sinks inside the box if...

My box is 12x12x4. I have room for a 12v/5v power supply (dell laptop power brick), Pi, 5 relays, 2 twist lock outputs, autosparge water level circuit, and about 10 buttons/switches. What are you putting in yours that is consuming your real estate?

the organization of people's wiring astounds me. If I was as anal as that, my circuits would never get built. VERY nice on the layout. Simple is best, i've always been a big fan.

Pics or it didnt happen.

looking into how the ds18b20's are read in the rpi, they create a directory within the w1 tree for each sensor's address, and you can cat the w1_slave file out to read the sensor data. i've been wanting to make my temperature probes wireless for a while now, and i think using my esp8266, and a...

Do any of you have a mounted LCD touch screen display for your panels? If so what do you use (model/part number) and how do you mount it in your panel?

Didnt get around to doing a boil today in the shop. I did get a lot done IN said shop though, so happy with that. Right now i'm kind of battling the bug where the graph doesnt display properly. I delete the templog files in the log directory to fix it but that hardly seems like a permanent...

Thanks for the reply. I'm new to CBP, so didnt know the new control logics were just introduced. Today i'm doing just what you suggested to bring the system online with a water boil. Do you find the P, I, and D settings are sufficient for all size batches, or is it geared more towards a 5...

Does anyone have a link to the different control logics listed for a kettle and how they are intended to be operated? Spent tonight reading the entire thread and it doesnt mention what all of the different options and parameters are for them.

Zombie thread alert... I grabbed a 4 pack of this from a buddy making the new glarus run a few months ago and this is an awesome beer. Not sure if it's the same as what's described up here in this thread (The new IIPA is called Scream in the thumbprint series). I found this article that...

Not a traditional group buy where the order is created and bought as a whole. A couple friends and I went in together on 4x 44lb bags of hops, and we've got 1 pound and half pound bags of the following: Cluster (pellet) 2012, 7.8% AA Northern Brewer (pellet) 2012, 4.9 AA Vacuum sealed and...

Thanks for all the input guys. Will try to address questions here: Drilling by hand... yes and no. I've got a drill press, and don't mind putting in a little time. The angle grinder idea I had considered, but I just don't like the way it looks in the end. I'm also skeptical of the pieces...

inspired by this thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/cut-keg-top-false-bottom-192413/index11.html I'm in the process of building my own false bottom. My trouble here... i'm trying to find a pattern of holes on the internet, or a configurable printable PDF document that I can iron on...

Thanks for the info guys. the M8 connectors actually give me a great idea. I have quite a few computer mice laying around. thinking maybe I can just cut the cords off of those and manufacture them from there. for 1/8" audio jacks, where did you source yours? I can find the panel mountable...
