Brewtroller or BCS

[Otto]

Hi all,

Is anyone running the Brewtroller or BCS controller on there system?

Was hoping to get a little feedback on them.

I am planning on implementing the BCS system http://www.embeddedcontrolconcepts.com/

On another note, is anyone interested in a device to measure the consumption of your Kegs, and let you know when they are nearly empty. Also display temperature. I am in the process of building some up.

All of it! Lots of questions but for starters, what flow meter did you use, is it just for cold water or mash/boil?

Cheers!

Hi,

I used a Flow sensor similar to thishttp://www.ebay.com/itm/Flow-Meter-Sensor-beer-liquid-stock-control...

From

There are cheaper ones that are $12 and go up to 80C if you want to use it on the mash

I got the Arduino and the LCD from ebay as well.

I set the flow meter now to measure the level of the corny kegs for my brothers beer Fridge and display it on the LCD Screen

Thanks Paul. much appriciated. I've got an Ardunio Mega and screen already. One project I would like to tackle is flow measurement, and then PWM control of my pump for flow control.

Cheers,
