    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    I read over doing a multiple chamber setup, and I'm curious why there needs to be more than one Arduino? Is there a reason you can't use another pair of GPIOs to control an 8-relay board on a three chamber setup?

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    Yeah, I've searched for a couple days now without finding anything. Bummer. I'll have to work at it and see where I get before giving up and getting another pi.

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    Has anyone successfully used a Beaglebone Black for this? I got one on clearance from RadioShack. Maybe I'm being overly ambitious (as per usual), but I'm building my kegerator, which is a side-by-side fridge, and have hopes of having rpints on a vertical monitor on the freezer/tap side and a...

    A little ways into my Raspberry Pi Strangebrew Elsinore build and thought I's share.

    So I haven't had a chance to update my version yet. My Pi isn't networked since I use the monitor, but I'll get that done soon. Here's what she looks like when up and running. My cheap Fotek SSR bit the dust during first use. I have it on a heat sink, with thermal paste, and next to fan but it...

    A little ways into my Raspberry Pi Strangebrew Elsinore build and thought I's share.

    So, I didn't get quite as far as I wanted to yesterday, and I'm questioning some elements of my design. I got most of the high voltage wired up but I'm not liking the wire coming in for service. It's just cumbersome. I think I want to put a receptacle there and make it able to disconnected but...

    I'm wiring everything up today. Just getting the Pi Zero configured and then I'll start taking progress shots.

    I've already done one brew without the use of the web UI. Didn't have any issues. I'll have to do a couple more "dry" runs just to make sure. Thanks for the heads up.

    A little ways into my Raspberry Pi Strangebrew Elsinore build and thought I's share.

    First post. I haven't been brewing for long at all. Only three batches in and wasn't thrilled at how different they tasted. Already having a fermentation chamber, I didn't think that was my problem. But I did know that my brewday temps were the hardest to control on the stove. So going...
