    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I wired another resistor in parallel, changed red wire to 3V3 pin. Is there another method to reset the bus? Perhaps one of the physical buttons on the ESP board? I have a BOOT and EN button. I ask because I am connected WIFI, I only know how to connect to the interface (to send commands) via...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    What is the fundamental difference between how we traditionally use Arduino vs a PLC? In other words, why does this appear to not have been accomplished yet? Is it not just a computer carrying out a set of instructions? I run a Unitronics PLC on our keg washer we have limited knowledge on...

    DIY AC initial charge

    The unit was empty, previous owners left the valves open and cut the linesm We ended up just weighing the 410a per manufacturers spec and accounting for the line length we installed. Everything was running great until my thermometer caught on the evaporator fan. New one should be here sometime...

    When you say ice detector are you referring to a thermometer or do you know of a sensor specifically designed to detect ice?

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Feature request: Ability to click on a graph element (minimally sized) and maximize to a larger window. A minimize button will bring it back to its original state, similar to how Windows interface works with restore up and restore down.

    Can the ESP32 drive a 10watt heater without intermediate driver? If I took @clearwaterbrewer suggested approach and BC lost connection, would the cold storage continue to function?

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Fin probe is on Thermostat A. Room probe is on Thermostat B. Thermostat B is plugged into thermostat A. Thermostat B drives the heater. Naturally the controller I have takes 45sec to reinitiate, this helps with the additional time needed to defrost Your proposal seems like a sound/simple...

    I currently have a DIY coolbot so I am aware of the heater and the two probes. Im looking to have BC take the place of the two thermostats I currently have. Can I have two hysteresis elements controlling a single output?

    DIY AC initial charge

    Looking to perform an initial charge on a used split unit we bought for our cold storage. This is a split unit and we have installed about 40' of service line in which we need to vacuum. I spoke with an AC technician and this is about as much information I could gather. I have gauges...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Feature request: A tool that duplicates the appearance of one element and applies it to the other. One step further would be to allow the user to select which properties are copied when using the tool- size, text size/location, etc..

    Re-using Stainless Steel Compression Fittings

    Yes you can reuse the compression fittings other than the ferrule that is bound to the tube. They make a plastic ferrule you can use instead of a metal one. Also two o rings will work as well
