The way I scripted the totalizer allows for both automated as well as manual control. I have the script set to auto start so it runs all the time. I have a global to display the total volume and a switch to enable/disable & reset the totalizer. The script monitors the switch so you can...

I have a few of the IFM SM6004s in my setup. I use one for controlling the flow rate of my HLT pump and one for controlling the ground water flow rate through my counter flow chiller. Both work very well for that. I have another that I use with a script to add up the total volume going into the...

The cheapest will be coming from overseas. $24 shipped is what I paid. Haven't had any issues with them. US $12.00 | CWX-15 series motorized ball valve stainless steel material DN15 DN20 DC3-6v DC12v DC24v CR01 CR02 CR04 for irrigation system https://a.aliexpress.com/_msPuQKx

Anybody ever seen this before? Everything was working fine 2 days ago, but stopped working today. Figured out it was a license issue, but I get this error when I try clicking on the activate button... Every other time I have had the license stop working, clicking on the activate button fixed...

Why not choose a different mosfet with lower Vgs threshold such that 3.3V will turn on the mosfet fully?

I have a rather long "extension cord" from the laundry room to the garage to get 220V 30A to the brew rig. For my setup 110V won't cut it.

From my experience of owning both element housings, go with the more expensive brewers hardware one. The case on bobby's is hard to screw on, and falls off if you bump it. It's also not as water proof as the other.

I was never really thrilled about the first mini PC I had for running BruControl. I bought a minis forum pc for the remote display in the garage and was satisfied with it. I then bought another one with more horsepower. The first one I bought had the bios setting to automatically boot...

I don't have any suggestions regarding storage. I built wooden shelving for all my assortment of different kegs. However, this is my solution for keeping track of the state of kegs and what's in them. Bought a bunch of luggage tags off of Amazon. Green if it's clean. Blue if it's sanitized and...

Here is the dosing pump ready for action. And the accompanying dashboard graphics update. I had a nice open space in the bottom right corner to add in the dosing pump. I do have to say my Paint 3D skills are becoming more proficient. Did not take much time at all to whip those renderings...

I'm glad other people can make use of this. In terms of packaging this into a library, that is a little beyond my reach in terms of skills and time. Mostly time these days. However, I did post this for others to use (and improve on) so maybe someone who has the time and knowhow can put in that...

I got the nodeMCU mounted into the case nice and clean by reusing the ribbon cable from the original control board. I added a USB connector so I can change the FW without having to open it up. I decided to go a different route for calibrating it. In favor of laziness and increased accuracy, I...

yeah that looks to be correct

I plan on using it to acidify strike and sparge water as well as dosing for the acid rinse at the end of the CIP routine. It uses an SNx4HC595 8-Bit Shift Register to select which pump to activate (0-3) and 4 ULN2003A darlington transistor arrrays to drive the pumps. You could write a script...

I bought one of these...

I think your biggest problem might be running sql server. Looks like that is 64 bit only and the surface pro can only run 32 bit x86 programs. Anything 64 bit currently needs to be natively ported to the ARM architecture. BTW, the team I work on contributed to the design of the SQ1 processor in...

I use sanke kegs for fermentation. I can get some random readings from it without the spear installed. With the spear installed, I can't get any signal out of it. I have tried a few different phones, different esp32's as well as a number of antennas on an esp32 with no avail. Works great...

Trying to recreate some other controllers interface seems silly to me. I understand that may be what your are comfortable, but why not take full advantage of BruControl? I do effectively the same thing you are trying to accomplish, but I skin the cat very differently. I do pretty much...

Microsoft Paint 3D is what he mentioned previously, which is why I used it for my background also.

Here is how I modified it for longer boil times. BoilHrs = 0; BoilTime = msg.BoilTime; while(BoilTime >= 60){ BoilTime -= 60; BoilHrs ++; } BoilTime = BoilHrs + ":" + BoilTime;
