So can you walk us through the process, start to finish, with pics? What do you anticipate the price range to be?
This is still in the beta stage and I haven't even got to brew on the system yet.
It's been in development for around 2 years and is finally coming to fruition.
Once the system is fully up and running an operational many documentaries will be posted on YouTube.
To date I have not been able to find a truly fully automated Brewing System.
We went with the AVG PLC because it's iiot ready and I can already control the system from an Android based tablet sitting in my living room.
I'm hoping in the end I can manufacture and sell this product for around $35,000.
The current build has cost $72,000 from testing out different equipment and changing pumps and mixers...
The production model will probably not have a 15in HMI. The screen Alone cast$2,000 and I'm hoping to find a cheaper refractometer as the one we purchased was around $6,000. The mixer is manufactured by MDX processes and was $4,200. And the only reason it cost so much was we opted in for stainless steel everything including the internals and externals of the motor and gearbox.
You can give galvanized and powder-coated finishes on a lot of this equipment for a lot less.
We didn't want to spare any expense as this is going to be the flagship.
