single controller for multiple FV's?

[Southern_Junior]

I am sure that i am just looking in the wrong forums or poor keyword selections, but I am coming up at a loss.

Is there a product or hack out there to have a single controller for multilple Fermentation Vessels? Ideally, i'd like something that can be wifi connected for logging or control, but if not, even just one controller would clean up my brewing space.

I currently have two Unitanks and two SSB cooling kits. but they are manual and a bit cumbersome. I am close to just building a project box with two STC-1000's but thought i would check before I did that.

I think your best bet is the project box. Even if there were an off the shelf product, it would still be 2 (or more) circuits in single box. But I've never seen one like that. And I've seen and used a lot of different controllers.

next question: have you ever seen a STC-1000 that is wifi enabled? or am i trying to recreate a smartPID to save a buck?

Sure. Amazon.com: Elitech STC-1000Pro WiFi Temperature Controller 2-Stage Outlet Thermostat LCD Screen Heating and Cooling Mode for Reptile Aquarium Carboy Homebrew Seed with TH Sensor 23-158°F 1100W 110V 10A : Industrial & Scientific

ETA: But I haven't used it.

Inkbird carries a wifi-enabled dual-stage controller. Keep an eye on the vendor forums as Inkbird is an HBT sponsor and often runs sales...

Cheers!
