All screw connectors on

First row of screw connectors on

I have decided to use the Arduino Mega as my interface and got it on Ebay for $9.99 and also purchased a screw shield for $15. I have never built a board kit, and it was super easy

Here is the BCS all wired in and about to get removed. It is for sale in the for sale forum!

I installed a BCS-462 on my 50 amp HERMS system and I was never really happy with it. In fact I never did a brew with the BCS due to that I found it very clunky to edit and run and it did not handle automation well. Then I saw Brudogs Brucontrol and got really excited as I have no programming...

Hello All, I have a brand new BCS-462 for sale $250. I Installed this and then changed to another system. It has only been powered up for testing and has never seen a brew day. The Item is located in Canmore, Alberta Canada and shipping will be at my cost to you. Cheers, Todd

Great video! What are you using for a flow sensor? Cheers, CBG

It sounds simple but in fact the process will be slow going and the fit has to be bang on. Be careful of you materials, make sure that the funnel is 304 or 316 stainless, any thing else and you will have issues. It will need to be sanitary which means you will have to purge with Argon to stop...

Hello All, I am wondering if anyone has some information on a filter that will remove calcium. Cheers, CBG

Hey Brundog, I just finished my BCS 462 panel and stumbled upon this. Would switching to your Brucontrol set up be as easy as using the same wiring and just hooking up all of the inputs, outputs and temp probes? If it is I will be purchasing one ASAP! Cheers, Todd

Wiring is continuing at a slow pace...

Started to rip apart the new panel enclosure

If all else fail you can send them to Canada and I will tack on a few tabs. CBG

Hello All, I am building some BCS thermistor temp probes and I was wondering if I should fill the thermowell with thermal paste to improve the transfer? Cheers, CBG

I am not to worried about the outside, it is the inner plate where the stainless plate seal against that is a problem. There is quite a bit of aluminum missing and I don't this the plates will seal unless I fix it. It is from my families dairy farm, it has only seen milk but it has been sitting...

Hello all, I have happened upon this plate chiller and it is in need of some repair. The fittings caused a galvanic reaction and corroded the front plate. I thought about building it up with a tig weld then machine it all but that is a huge amount of work. Has any one used aluminum epoxies...

Could you please send me or post the PJ schematic as I am just planning my BCS 462 build. Cheers, CBG

Sir you are a gentleman and a scholar! Thank you for the quick response and the help. Cheers, Todd

I tried using a calculator from the bcs website but after I enter the last temp the graph wipes out. Then I saw that there are 4 different values of resistance in the 10K range so now I am confused
