Hey guys, it's been quiet in this thread lately; how's your projects coming along? Any headway on the force sensors or flow sensors?
I see on the Seeduino link earlier in this thread (
here it is again..) under the Q&A tab, page 6 of the questions... someone specifically asks if it is food grade, and the answer is no.
With that being said, "Food Grade" tends to be very conservatively used, and let's be perfectly honest, as home brewers we often weigh our options (example: we sometimes use brass fittings instead of nylon or stainless, although we all know beer can corrode brass. So what. we're not running production breweries and 10,000 Gal of FDA-approved beer thru that fitting. (trolls, please leave me alone on this)).
Can anyone confirm whether this unit has liquid contact with the ferrite, and if so, if the ferrite is held in with an ahesive, or if it is compressed in to the pinwheel? I just want to consider what all materials come in to contact with the beer.
Thanks guys! I am a long-time Arduino developer, so I will be sharing my project details soon!
