Control Systems Specialist in Process Automation. I was made for this hobby.

I've had alot of the training and work with your kind daily. I can only imagine your setup. Depending on your resources, your system may not require you to even be around on brew day. You just tap a key or two on your lap top, half a world away and the process starts. You monitor and it does it all, right down to the kegging and carbing.

Heck it could be so automated that you only have to work the tap/bottle opener! LOL

So far I'm all manual because I'm fairly new, but I have all kinds of ideas . I want to start with precise temperature control and run thermocouples into a controller that will dump data to a database that runs a trend on my TV upstairs. Then graduate to hot water purge system operated by solenoids for easy clean. Baby steps though :)

Do you get to bring home the old stuff when they upgrade?
I really wish we could, but they wanna see it get destroyed instead.:mad:

Retired Marine Comm Officer...currently a mercenary supporting the Marine Corps on one of the programs I used to run....

Really want to be a gun smith...and headed that way in a year or so.
 
By title I am a machinist. The work I do, however, is on par with what my company calls a "Manufacturing Processing Specialist Engineer". What it boils down to is that I have all the experience and know how to do the job, but I don't have the 4 year degree to qualify for the title or pay. It's a completely backwards system. Idiots straight out of school that cant build a sandwich without mommie's help make twice the money I do because they have a BS in "western tantric mating rituals of the common housefly" or any other such nonsense.
 
I am an accountant. I am also jealous of those who can do every project under the sun like it is second nature to them. I have done a few. Took me 4 months to build my keezer, but it got finished eventually, and worked, so I was pretty pleased in the end... Wish I could weld and do electrical work though...
 
Official title is Systems Administrator, but I am primarily responsible for the HelpDesk for the small investment firm I work for. A jack of all IT trades kinda guy.
 
Neuroscientist. I know more about the effects of beer on the brain than I care to admit. Doesn't stop me though!
 
Ever go back and try to reverse engineer it? Lol. What platform/language do you code?


VB and SQL. More of a cowboy coder. Boss asks me to fix the fired contractors work and I do it. It's like a giant pile of Legos. One day I'll get into the web sphere. Starting to teach myself jscript.

Long way from Forestry School.
 
Technical theatre professional, currently negotiating a PM gig to go along with my TD gig. Hard to schedule brews around the erratic schedule, so I'm admittedly imprecise about certain aspects of brewing, but I've enjoyed some real success at the high abv range recently, so there's that.

I do a little bit of VB at work, mainly because the firm is too cheap to hire a full time IT guy.

I started with Cut & Paste from Google, then fixing it. It's actually pretty impressive what you can learn by doing that.
