    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I need some visual aid. Is there a way to make element "flashing" by changing images ? Image 1-> 500ms pause -> image 2 -> repeat. If I use script below it would stop at sleep 500: or flash text message: "text" -> "nothing" -> text Reason I am asking is issue I am having with passing sound...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I managed to make my UI like this. I hope it helps, I know it's not "inside" :cool: Please note I just started and I am learning, so this is for sure not final. Some of the devices, like Valve is just provisional, to be used in the future. I really like to keep things simple :-D- if possible so...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Yes it's in the RIMS tube at the top of it, where flow exits. Sensor (NTC) is inserted into thermowell at the top of the tube. I would estimate that thermowell goes almost to the top of the heater. Flow is passing sensor on the way out, and to the top of the mash. I will double (or more) the...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    At or a bit before 11:30, I changed target temp to 52C. System just followed my inputs. Temp probe is just above heater, maybe 2cm or less above it. heater is 3.5 kW. System reacts quite fast after heater is on / or when it's pulsing. With PID 20/ 1 / 5 swings are way to big for my system...

    Hi everyone, Sorry for redirecting the topic, just want to share couple picture with you. For past weeks and months, as I was building my setup and silently followed this group. Finally I am ready, and I did my first PID tuning :-) : I I think I should be ok with1st PID tuning - for my...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    hi everyone, just wanted to say hi. Nice to meet yall. :-) I am brewing since 2010 and throughout this time I was using physical PIDs. 3 vessel system, HERMS, 70L batches. I also integrated CraftbeerPi3 into my setup but that development seems to be not moving forward past 1+ year.(not the only...

    Hi there, I am just a beginner trying to find my way around. I find your post immensely helpful and educational. Would you copy paste/ attach your latest version of the code.?

    Fermentrack showing extreme high ABV 1999% or 2300% :-S

    if someone finds this post: with fermentrack you MUST use formula calibrated to SG. Fermentrack has no option to calculate ABV when gravity is calculated in plato.

    yes that was it, I had to switch my calibration formula to SG.

    Hi guys, Sorry for spamming and if this is wrong thread. I posted already in fermenters. My configuration is iSpindel with Fermentrack (I am using it only to follow fermentation) and recently I noticed that gravity shows extreme ABV. Specific gravity seems to be ok as plato. Do you know maybe...

    craftbeerpi control panel

    I am impressed with first picture. Good job. SSR have tendency to fail shortened. It is important to protect from that. I fully support your 1st diagram and I think it's an idea in good direction. Did you developed it more? How to detect if SSR failed and shortened , how to protect wort to...
