Although, I don't think I have outlet room out there to have one plugged in all the time. Hmmm. Still something to think about. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Now that's a good idea!! I may be rethinking the LCD. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Not necessary, yes. Worthless, I don't think so. I walk by my fermentation chamber many times a day mad like to be able to look at it to see what it's doing. Hehe. To each his own. :-) Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Eh. Yeah. It's not necessary. But I wouldn't mind having a display in case the Pi's web server cores or the Pi loses network connection or whatever. That way, I could tell at a glance that my beer temp didn't climb way over where it should be. I may order an LCD like comes with a BrewPi so...

Thanks for the build info FuzzeWuzze!! I got this up and running just fine! I'm interested in adding one of these LCD shields. I already have it lying around.... RGB LCD Shield Any ideas on how to get that going? I can't install Atmel Studio as I don't own a Windows machine. I'm all...

A couple of times, I've ladled out a couple of cups of boiling wort, chilled it, added a bit of RO water, added yeast, then stuck it on the stir plate. Then I have chilled the wort and stuck it in the chest freezer. (Fermentation chamber) Pitched the starter first thing the next morning. Seems...

Sure nuff. Every time I make a lager, I lager in the keg. Straight from primary to keg. Stick it in the kegerator. Let it ride. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

That bite will go away after a little bit of time. This is one go my favorite recipes. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Thanks! That's what I'm hoping! I know I got krausen in less than 12 hours. That's never happened with Notty before in my experience. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Hehehe. I've done the arm in the fermentor thing. (I won't ask if you don't.) :mug:

Yeah. That's what I'm hoping. It was clean. Fresh out of the cabinet. Just washed a few days ago.

I usually don't rehydrate my dry yeast. Usually, I just sprinkle it on top of the wort when it's cool enough. So yesterday, I decided to rehydrate a packet of Nottingham for the Red Rye I had just brewed. I boiled a cup of water. Put it in a measuring cup. Covered it with saran wrap...

The enclosure is roughly 8x5x3. It's not a Radio Shack enclosure, I got it from a little electronics shop. A radio shack enclosure of roughly the same size should work fine. I use a chest freezer as well. The 10A relays will be fine. As FuzzeWuzze says, the STC1000 uses 10A relays. I...

It occurs to me that it might be helpful to see the database structure so here are screenshots of the tables. "temp" Table on top. "SetPoint" table on bottom. All enclosed in a database called "tempMonitor" There are a few extra things in "temp" that I'm not using yet. I put them in with an...

Ok. Here's the diagram I used. It's not exactly the same relay board, but it's the one I used to figure out how to hook it up because it's close enough. :mug: Oh. The ones that are tied together are HOT. The ground is just running to the ground screw.

Hey!! Creating a GIT repository wasn't as involved as I thought it was going to be. Here's a link to the repository. I'll also add it to the first post. https://github.com/timdsmith72/tempControl

That's the file that inserts the data into your database. The file that draws your chart is called "dashboard.php" I've created a GIT repository. Link coming.

Ha! Yes. Sorry about that. I just used the wire I took out of the extension cord. I screwed up a nice length of one of the colors and didn't want to cut any more off the extension, so used what I had left. I am cleaning up after brewing. I'll do that in a bit. :) Sent from my iPhone...

This is one of the PHP files that lives on your Raspberry Pi. You'll just need to change the username/password to match your database username/password. http://www.nuthausbrewing.com/TempControlUploads/data.zip This is the bit of code that deals with this file. void sendData(float...

Here's the Arduino sketch. One of these days, I'll figure out how to set up a GIT account and upload it there. :drunk: http://www.nuthausbrewing.com/TempControlUploads/tempControl.ino.zip
