Hi, I'm trying to find a temperature controller for my RIMS setup that I can remotely control (say, with an Arduino).
Before I go any farther, I would think that this is a question that has been asked/answered a 100 times, and, if so, I really hate to be one of those guys, but I've spent an hour now searching this forum and haven't found anything beyond a handful of RS-485 connected controllers.
Ideally, I'd like to use a simpler connection, like I2C, SPI, or even a TTL-level serial input. Does anything like this exist?
I know that many just bypass the controller and run their own PID firmware to make this happen, but I was thinking that if something is easily available that I could replace my "MyPin" PID controller with, it would be a quick and simple upgrade to my setup.
All I really want to do for now is to just be able to run a stepped profile for the mash temp.
Thanks for any pointers.
