I just purchased:
Adafruit Beagle Bone Black Starter Pack ( 1)
Micro HDMI to HDMI Cable - 2 meter ( 1)
Waterproof DS18B20 Digital temperature sensor + extras ( 4)
Adafruit Perma-Proto Half-sized Breadboard PCB - Single ( 1)
My plan is to have it run a eHERMs single tier. I am currently researching a touch screen as the interface and I must be crazy because I have no electronics or programming knowledge. I plan on using (2) 5500w elements in the HLT and BK. I will be doing 5-10 gal batches. I currently have 1 chugger pump and 1 propane burner which I have been working with for years.
Any wiring schematics and or thoughts that you feel would help, please discuss. I am not interested in automation of valves or pumps. I like doing that part and just want to touch screen to turn pumps on and off. This should make the programming side easier. I just want to build a touch screen Kal clone for now with automation maybe later.
I was following the "senior build" on this forum but he has not posted in a while.
I plan on posting all the steps as the build progresses, and I have a few friends in various professions that are going to be helping along the way.
I currently have a keggle for BK which I am mounting a quick disconnect immersion chiller inside of. A 10 gallon igloo MT, and a ss pot for HLT. BK & HLT are silver soldered 1/2" couplings and currently work great. New larger ss pot will be added when controller is built. (possibly adding inline pH if anyone has seen that used?)
Thanks in advance for all the good advice and info.
