Actually that is something that could easily be obtainable through IFTTT.

No unfortunately work has pushed that part of the project way back. And because of this grain will have to be crushed and poured in a traditional manner.

Okay so new update. The system is able to brew beer now, not in an Automated Manor but by selecting valves and set points manually. I'm slightly behind schedule due to some complications with programming but I think it's time for its maiden voyage manually controlled. If anyone is curious and...

YouTube is an amazing platform for learning any new skill. Anytime I have any questions or concerns about a project I'm working on I turn to YouTube for answers so I can see exactly what other people did and how they did it. I've built my complete electric system all from information obtained...

I was faced with thr same problem... Ended up buying better RTD probes to fix the issue... Very frustrating!

Update. The last few weeks have been a fun and challenging time. I was able to get the plumbing from the Brewing System to the biodigester installed on the other side of my house. This will take the spent grain from the system to the tank in the ground that holds upwards of 800 gallons and...

So I did order one of these condensers from the link provided and it is of pretty decent quality. The 3/8 tubing inside the shell could use a little bit of cleaning and the welds are fairly decent. I probably wouldn't use this on the cold side of things but on the hot side it should work pretty...

http://www.skolnik.com/seamless_process_drums The drums where using are manufactured by Skolnik. We opted in for the stainless steel seamless process drum which gives you a rounded corner at the bottom of the drum and no seam. Each drum cost around $800 with a lid that includes an edpm seal...

Failures are inherent in all designs regardless of their complexity or cost. It's just a thing of life. Everything fails. But that never stopped me from trying.

If you have a TIG welder, weld it from the inside and use a purge gas on the outside to pervent chromium oxidization. It'll also wet-in really nicely.

Because not everyone is technologically advanced.

LOL, love the reply but all jokes aside I do appreciate your input.

Yes, yes and yes. This is definitely not for beginners in any way. A background in electronics, thermal Dynamics and mechanics are definitely a prerequisite. As for repeatability on recipes... This becomes a little interesting. There's maximums and minimums for time-temperature, recirculation...

Fair enough! Lol Yes the tops of the mash tun and boil Kettle both have 3-inch Tri clamp viewing ports that can be removed to add whatever additions you would like. In terms of water adjustments, these can also be made through these 3 inch Tri clamp viewing ports. The entire hop addition will...

1,5" (OD50.5) Stainless steel 304 condenser 350mm. http://s.aliexpress.com/UNNzUVfU This appears to be and identical heat exchanger to what I used for $50 exactly with free shipping. Doesn't get much better than that! I placed an order for two of these to check the quality and I'll let...

That would be an amazing price point unfortunately the sensors used on the system cost more than that. I think the atago refractometer cost $8,000 alone. Fairline fitting, 0-100 Brixs, inline, temperature compensated, 5-100c operating, 160c CIP. 4-20ma output. Once this system is 100%...

Let me see if I can find something.

The shell and Tube heat exchanger was sourced from various companies. And yes it will not plug up which is really nice. There are three parts to the shell and Tube heat exchanger. The 15 in shell and Tube shotgun style heat exchanger. X10 180 degree elbows. X10 1 foot whip. X10 The 180...

24v controls with SSR's is what I use for a 8.5kw setup. I can't seem to open up your PDF. Would really like to check out what you have in store.

Oh yes it can. I'm about 30 minutes north of Sacramento and it gets into the triple digits often.
