    I think you may have 2 problems here: (1) for the inability to select a keg, are you sure you have at least one keg configured which is in the correct state to be eligible for selection? If you do, then the fix below may help here as well. (2) As for the quotes, I may have left a bug in an...

    Sorry, was out of town for a bit, didn't have much internet... X1 supplies 5V power to the relay board. In addition I just use it to have a spot to connect incoming power (from the voltage converter hooked up to the 1st pin on X1) and outgoing leads (to alamode + pi hooked up on 2nd pin of...

    Jessie did away with SysV init and uses systemd instead, so no more /etc/inittab. That's where the alamode install script croaks on. Use Wheezy. Wonder if the alamode people gonna fix that... Cheers, -Th

    Chromecast is a bit of a walled garden, not easy to get a "unapproved" app on there - at least I haven't tried in a few years. If you could get a amazon firetv (stick or box), it's possible to get firefox running there (that's what I'm using, I got a Chromecast too, but didn't get it to work...

    The valve solenoid and flow meters are pretty much completely seperate cicuitry, even tho I'm using the same 6-pin connector per solenoid/flow counter stack. The solenoid relays have noting to do with the flow counters. 3 of the pins on each connector are for flow counters, the 3 remaining pins...

    Awesome setup! Guess where I'm coming from :) https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=487694&page=139 Would be cool to have the tap handle displays animated when someone walks up to the taps - with little hop faces yelling "Take me, I'm Hoppy", "No take me, I'm Dunkel" and then start...

    Hi Mafoley, your package arrived yesterday, much thanks for that, I appreciate it. I hope to get around to that in the next few weeks. Here as said earlier, a few schematics and pictures of the breakout board that I made for hooking my RPints build together. Attached first is the schematic...

    You can use pretty much any pin on the Pi that's labeled GPIO, *but do not use Pin 18*. Google around a bit for the GPIO pin layout for your Pi model (different between Pi1 and Pi2, a diagram also came with your Pi packaging), anything GPIO is good, and you just set it in the tap config screen...

    Well, electrically you should be able to make them work. I'd be a tad worried about the .5 bar min pressure (which amounts to somewhere around 7 PSI). With solenoids, it helps to have long lines to settle the beer after it goes thru the valve. But most of your pressure differential may already...

    It's ok, the B's will do. Hope you also ordered the usb wifi adapters. They can be a tad fiddely in Linux, esp. if you don't start the X window system (which you don't need for the server side), but there is good how-to's around. Cheers, -Th
