I have two Spike CF 15 conicals, each with Spike's TC-100 temperature control accessories.
This bundle includes two digital temperature controllers with their own temp probes. Cold outlet turns on a pump in chilled water, hot outlet turns on wrapped heater.
I would love to be able to monitor and possibly adjust the set temperature remotely for greater control over the fermentation. I have been looking into BrewPi, and wondering if this could be a solution. However, I would like to keep the existing temp controllers that the Spike system provided, to avoid additional costs of hardware.
Is there a way to integrate something like BrewPi or similar with these temp controllers I already have?
If possible, are there any good guides on building all of this? I had trouble searching for this particular situation.
Note: This is my first venture into automation and controllers and such, so I apologize if I have no idea what anyone is talking about. I'm trying!
