The new interface looks good. Just ordered my spa panel today should be in next week then I can start building the beast. The temperature sensors i have are these ones from adafruit http://www.adafruit.com/products/642 Is this the same sensor everyone else is using? If so where and how are you...

That is what i am thinking too. I only brew 5 gallon batches. So my current 9 gallon pot and 5 gallon cooler mash tun is almost perfect for the styles i brew. Could always use a bigger pot and Fermcap helps keep the boil overs under control. I really like the idea behind this design its simple...

It looks like we have success. I did rebuild my PI install with the latest Raspbian Wheezy today. So it might have been the OS or the PID setting or a combination of both. Small scale testing is working great. Now its time to decide if I want to go 3 vessel like Kal or something like a brutus...

Here you go... I started up the server went to Auto hit start duty cycle dial went to -100 and element did not come on. Then could not go over to manual tab and manually turn element on. =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= PuTTY log 2013.09.04 22:18:48 =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= login as: pi [email protected]'s...

Still did not work. I am going to have a closer look at the Linux itself. Are you using the Raspbian Wheezy? I have the Adafruit Occidentalis installed.

OK. if i start the server. Go in and set manual to say 60% everything is fine. Click off then press send command. The element goes off. Go over to pid set temp and hit send command. Nothing happens then go over and try the manual again. It does not turn on. Here is the captured output...

This is what it gave me. Funny thing is once I click send command on the PID screen the manual screen stops working. pi@raspberrypi ~/strange/SB_Elsinore_Server $ sudo java -jar Elsinore.jar -Ddebu g=INFO Sep 04, 2013 9:23:15 PM com.sb.elsinore.LaunchControl main INFO: Running Brewery...

Getting there have made a few configuration changes. I dont get the errors anymore. I can toggle the element manually but the PID control does not work. Here is my config now. Attached is a screen shot [general] scale = C [kettle] probe = 28-000004473de9 gpio = 11 set_point = 175.0...

GPIO is configured in the rpibrew.cfg file. I dont see where i have an empty string. [general] scale = F [kettle] set_point = 175.0 duty_cycle = 100.0 cycle_time = 2.0 k_param = 41.0 i_param = 169.0 d_param = 4.0 probe = 28-000004473de9 gpio = GPIO11 proportional = 41.0 integral = 169.0...

Just came across this project and thought I would give it a shot and see how it works... Got a new SD card installed in my pi. Wired temp sensor connected and a relay connected. I see temp updates but cannot toggle the PID state to be on or off. Here is a dump from my console Sep 04, 2013...

Finally a use for my Pi. I am in the process of switching to an electric setup. Due to limited space this will just be a single kettle batch sparge setup in the basement. I think this might be the solution I have been looking for the ability to set some parameters and monitor remotely and come...

I have been home brewing for about a year now and finally decided to make the jump from store bought kits to a partial mash. So tonight i mashed, boiled and cooled... Shortly after pitching and letting the wort settle down i already start to see some trub forming? This seems awfully quick to...
