I've been slowly gathering all of the parts to build an electronic HERMS 3 Keggle system and am getting closer each day.
My Keggles are all set up, HLT and BK with 5,500 heating elements, 2 pumps, the usual build, etc.
Now I'm wondering what to do for the controller. I have read everything I can so far on this board, and some other pages, but am somewhat stuck on where to go from here.
Right now I have the 3 SSR's, the 3 contactors, box, electrical plugs (240 and 120) lights, switches, and all of the temp probes.
Based on the attached picture I would still need to order a good amount of items to go with the Raspberry Pi build.
Based on the information I found on a PID controller, I would still need to order the PID's, and the boil controller. Is there anything else that I would need for that build?
If you have one or the other, why did you decide to go that way vs the other?
I'm OK going with either build, I have an extra Pi laying around, and seems user friendly to set everything up.
Just looking for opinions to push me one way or the other here.
Thanks in advance
