One of the goals for my homebrewing is automation (such that when my son asks me to play a game of catch, I feel okay doing it while making a simplier recipe).
I also brew indoors, so electronic brewing is almost amust (for now, but easier than modifying vents for propane). I cam across this site:

I'd like to implement something similar, but use an Arduino board to control the details. This would perhaps allow automatic adjustment of the boiling rate to yield the target volume of wort in a given time as well as other features.
Has anyone used an arduino board to give almost 'set-and-forget' automation to their wort boil? Any plans?
