Here's the schematic that I've used.What's the part numbers for the new parts you added to the schematic. Also can you post the pinout of your shift register.
I appreciate you helping. I have tried to get my lcd up and running a few times now. But all I get is an lcd that lights up with the 1st and 3rd lines with solid blocks.
They still drop 0.3 to 0.7 volts across them depending on if they're silicon or germanium, etc.
FWIW - This is what I'm using on my BrewPi - http://www.ebay.com/itm/5V-Two-2-Ch...345?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2a26055221
But I'm only trying to control one chamber too.
I bet your wrong. I'm working with a 20 year old kenmore stand up that has a starting capacitor controlled by a non-0 crossing timer relay. And the compressor still makes this loud crunching sound when when it starts up.
I'm about ready to give up.
I removed my linux partitions and reinstalled Ubuntu, which worked better than Debian the last time I tried.
I installed brewpi and everything looked ok. When I opened up the web page, I get 404 Not Found. I tried reinstalling brewpi and removing it and reinstalling, but nothing works. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
Do you understand what non-0 crossing relay is basically it's never really off. So it doesn't arc when it makes contact.
By safety relay I mean the timer that keeps the fridge from coming on right away. Some have it some don't.
Well, a non-zero crossing relay is like a normal mechanical relay (not like an SSR).[...]
During the summer, after I get the initial temperature down, I prechill the water to get it down that last bit. I use an old immersion chiller that I place in a bucket of ice to bring the water temp down.

So, I've been so busy at work for the past several weeks that I couldn't get motivated to brew for a long time, but I finally brewed my first batch using my BrewPi setup and everything is going great. Thanks again to everyone who helped me get it up and running.
Quick question. I use an immersion chiller to cool the wort, and usually it can cool it down to 70 no problem. But it's been crazy hot here lately, and since my temp sensors are really accurate now, this batch was 80 degrees when I pitched the yeast. My refrigerator took about 12 hours to get it down to 63 degrees.
Should I cool my carboys down to 63 in the fridge before pitching the yeast the next time? What do you guys do?
Thanks!
