    StrangeBrew Elsinore - Raspberry Pi based brewery controller

    Force close and reopen. Still on brew day when it opened up. Adding to Etc/modules didn't work for me so I added mod probe lines to launch script

    Should android be set to local IP or cosm feed?

    StrangeBrew Elsinore - Raspberry Pi based brewery controller

    I added them but are not working. I have had the same problem with the boot/config.txt file when adjusting the resolution. I opened the Android piece and it is stuck on the Brew day screen. In settings I set the server to my local IP and port 8080.

    Sorry about the Noob question, but how do we set modprobe in Linux? I tried editing the /boot/config.txt file but it didnt seem to work.

    Ah, I should have known that. I removed the hash and recieved some message about a missing directory. I ran the following commands and it started working. sudo modprobe w1-gpio sudo modprobe w1-therm

    StrangeBrew Elsinore - Raspberry Pi based brewery controller

    Finally had some time to play with the raspberry pi again. Setup LAMP, configured rpibrew.cfg, and Installed probes. I also setup an xively account for the cosm but I havent readup on it yet. I think I pulled the right data over to the config file. I set #cosm= to the Auto-generated BrewPi...

    Anyone from MI going to the pickup. We had a baby a week ago and the wife is giving me grief about taking a road trip.

    Any Hop Rhizome deals?

    I wouldn't worry about it. I am sure the mg will work. Adding vermiculite would help if using a planter as they tend to dry out faster. Best place I have found to buy vermiculite is at Menards in the housing insulation section. It is much cheaper per cubic foot than the garden section.

    WaterWeld DS18B20 temperature sensor to side of keggle

    That makes sense. I suppose I will have to bite the bullet and go with a well. I do have premade stainless probes, but I wanted to limit the number of holes in my kettle.

    Soil mix is just compost, peat moss and vermiculate. Compost is for nutrients, vermiculite holds water and peat moss helps it drain.

    Any Hop Rhizome deals?

    Some people use totes (18gal or bigger) but they will get frail if left out in the sun over time. Also look up mel's mix for dirt recipe

    GOOD on Netflix STREAMING?

    Bsg was great even got my wife hooked on it. Didn't know blood and chrome came out yet. I will have to look for it. They also made a straight to video movie that followed the show from the Cylon perspective.

    WaterWeld DS18B20 temperature sensor to side of keggle

    Thank you for the insight. I think I can get around the fragile legs by tacking the head of the sensor, heat shrinked legs and the wire with water weld epoxy. This should immobilize the sensor and transfer stress point to where the wire is attached. My admittedly noon question is how does a...

    +1 on great lakes hops. Owner is happy to answer any questions and sell crowns instead of rhizomes so you will have a better first year harvest.

    WaterWeld DS18B20 temperature sensor to side of keggle

    Has anyone attached a ds18b20 directly to the side of a kettle or keggle? I am not talking about using a well or compression fittings or drilling any new holes. I was thinking of using a DS18B20 sensor with thermal grease and a tab of JB waterweld to hold the sensor tight to the kettle. Would...

    StrangeBrew Elsinore - Raspberry Pi based brewery controller

    The command I had was for 6 but I upgraded to 7. Now it looks like it is running. It says waiting for input. Is this because I have not installed the sensors yet or are there commands we need to enter at this point? Thanks for your help!
