    Spring 2024 Corny Keg Giveaway

    Nice! My latest brew was a British Brown. It's wrapping up as we speak.

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I think I might have an issue with ESP32 firmware v.46F. I installed it on an ESP32 that I have for one fermenter the other day, and it is reading 0.768. My other ESP32 with v46D (I believe) and my Tilt app (calibrated and uncalibrated) show a closer-to-accurate 1.011. The uncalibrated...

    Node-Red and BruContriol

    Ah, very cool all around. Welp, let me know if you get stuck somewhere or have questions about some NR features. Sounds like you've made great progress.

    Node-Red and BruContriol

    When you say "we," are you running a brewery? CSV is a good call for storage, but the files will stack up take up a lot of space. If just storing brewday data, it might not stack up quickly, but it will in time. You can work a way to save the data as a Google Sheet for cloud storage (put the...

    Node-Red and BruContriol

    It was my pleasure to help. Sorry I haven't gotten back to you on our thread yet. Busy work week then busy weekend with the homebrew club (I'm a cabinet member, and we hosted the greater DC-area clubs for a get together). As a note, you can either change the .txt file to a .json file or open...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I was asked about a basic Node-RED flow to get started with using BruControl's data exchange server. I figured I'd share the sample flow code here as well. Just copy the following code, then in Node-RED, go to the menu and select Import. Paste the code and click okay, and the flow will appear...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Seconding this. Mine got really large as well, so I deleted it and did away with SQL. I have my brew stats pulled from Brucontrol by Node-RED and sent to Supabase (a free database like Firebase) and Brewfather, so I can see both historical and current data when needed. Saves me from very large...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Now if Lilygo or Robodyn woule make a S3 board with integrated relays and such, we'd be in business. Does the firmware support the S3 yet?

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Yeah, I know... so much MCU power though! I'm playing with the S3 and C3 on some scale and tap display projects. I'm liking them a lot.

    TiltBridge - Tilt-to-WiFi Device for Tilt Hydrometer

    Thanks! I'll use a plain ESP32 to try it out. Still selecting which one with a TFT that I want :) might go the Lilygo T-display.

    TiltBridge - Tilt-to-WiFi Device for Tilt Hydrometer

    Hey everyone! Sorry if this has been asked already, but I couldn't find anything in a thread search. I currently use BruControl on my PC to control my fermentation devices, and I use Node-RED to get/put info between BruControl, my main Node-RED server, my Supabase database, and Brewfather...

    Mod to CF10 coil TC cap for BrewBuilt Uni+

    Good questions. I do have the neoprene jacket, and the linked cooling jacket does fit. Just have to stuff it down there on the back side. I have one pump from MoreBeer and another I got from Amazon. They aren't high flow, but I wanted to slow down the flow to give the glycol more contact time...

    Mod to CF10 coil TC cap for BrewBuilt Uni+

    I bought it from here: Conical Cooling Jacket I didn't get any extras, just one per fermenter. I'm not sure how it does by itself with these fermenters, and I didn't test it with the CoolStix that came with the BrewBuilt, but it pairs well with the Spike cooling coil mod.

    Mod to CF10 coil TC cap for BrewBuilt Uni+

    Oh, at least you have access to that then. I like the Spike CF10 a tadbit more (it's obvious that the BrewBuilt is copied from the Spike CF series), but the BrewBuilt has been very reliable. Well made, easy to clean, and just pretty. As an another update, I added a cooling jacket around the...

    Mod to CF10 coil TC cap for BrewBuilt Uni+

    Oh yeah! I meant to come back with an update. No pressure issues at all. It holds 14 PSI steady at the end of fermentation. I ended up getting a Spike CF10 as well and did this again for that fermenter. I wanted to save my lid ports for other things. Pressure holds fine there as well. Just...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I have two normal ones that sit on top of my fermenters for Tilt readings. They have occasional drops but always reconnect. I haven't had one completely drop and not come back online. They don't control anything, just take Bluetooth readings. My keezer uses a Lilygo ESP32 relay module and same...
