    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    And here here on BruControl. Hell, if I were a total homebrew nut (...), I could just make my whole house run on the same platform I manage my homebrewing with... Lights, coffeemaker, and all. I love the open and easy way BruControl connects to cheap mainstream controllers for anything.

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Well, I'll have a probe and Tilt at least. I'm currently working on auto-spunding to be controlled by BC, and a glycol chiller is on the way. And now that BC has kickstarted my techy and scripting interest, I'll be scouring these forums for more ideas :) so your layout could be great for...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Oh, very cool. I've treated my workspaces like a one-stop shop, but the separate workspaces does allow for full deep dives into what is happening. I'll consider this route.

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    [Edit: Now that I have posted this, I finally came across a previous discussion on this thread where it seems most go with barebone backround of equipment and then use the element backgrounds.... but still curious what most people have found most preferable in their setup] On that note, and...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Oh @exoticatom, I just read that you already have a 30psi. Sorry! Why was 30psi considered too much? I assume the measured psi amount was too much for you to have precise measurements. I am using my 30psi for pressure fermentation purposes, so I assume that will be more than adequate when I...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I can't vouch yet if it works, but I just ordered this last night: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0748BXFYQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I figured I'd just give it a go before asking anyone if there are any obvious reasons it wouldn't work :)

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I'm redoing my centralized fermentation controller with the ESP32-DevKitC-VIE (ESP32-WROVER-IE), which allows for an external antenna. It has an integrated antenna too, but you have to do some soldering to activate it. Here it is on Amazon: Amazon.com: ESP32-DevKitC-VIE Development Board...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Dang, this is a much better idea than dealing with antenna splitters to my fermenters at the risk of signal loss. I don't know why I didn't think to just make my own cheapo repeater than than spenting $130 on the Tilt repeater. I found that this can be done easily on an ESP32 with this code...

    Oh, good input. I'll look for those, thanks!

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Yeah, that loss was my concern. I am looking at the ESP32-DevKitC-VIE, which lists a -97 dBm (comapred with the ESP42-DevKitC-UE's ~-89dBm), which will hopefully help with this. But, that's what this is all about! Trial...error...error...error...beer...fix! I'll update once I get this update...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I am glad to hear this success story. I am about to redo my whole fermentation control setup so it runs on a single ESP32 and 8-channel relay board (I'm currently using multiple converted Sonoff DUAlR2 switches [thank for the clear instructions on those, BrunDog!]), and I've been considering...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Hey @BrunDog! I'm having some issues with the Beta when it comes to the graphs. I have a workspace dedicated to graphs (mostly temps of my ferm chambers and tilt gravity readings). First, I had to reset the input devices for the graphs when I first opened the Beta version, which wasn't a big...

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    Nice! Yeah, dealing with weight/scales just seems a little too involved, and sometimes I have to play musical kegs in my keezer, so shifting the scale systems would be a pain. I look forward to word about BruControl integration. I might have to stimulate the homebrewing economy if these...

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    I see you have the moral support of @BrunDog :) does this mean that BruControl can read the sensor data? It seems each sensor needs its own controller (+display). That makes sense if you want a display for each tap. But can multiple sensors be connected to a central controller to be read by...

    Need Help Locating a Replacement Regulator Washer

    I'm not sure that is a Japanese CGA-320 if he is in the U.S. and is able to get it on a CO2 tank. My regulator's original nut looked like that one too, before I found a new, wider nut that works here. Jhalloran, I PM'd back, but for others in the same position, I found a set of 6 nylon washers...

    Japan standard tank to US standard regulator?

    Hey Drifting, Glad you find this information useful. Let's see if I can help. For my keg, I ordered from the U.S. on eBay. Since I have a mail box on the Army base I get good priced shipping. Antenna America in Yokohama may can help hook you up with a keg, but for corny kegs, America is...

    Japan standard tank to US standard regulator?

    Just just for the size I mentioned, you should be fine (keep the receipt just in case). As for the operation and connection, it is still working just fine. Let me know if you have any issues after tomorrow!
