Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Looking over the net to find ideas to build a automatic brewing setup
and so far have only found a thriving bunch using brew troller.....seems
to be about the only software/hardware system being developed......seems
like they are working hard to create a new touchscreen system that has
the features of some of the things Geoff has already done/offered.....can
you tell me if anyone is doing this with Maximite which being a new
person just recently finding this machine, seems to be the better
choice.....any help most appreciated....would like to see software ideas for touchscreen and how to manage brewing operations.....thanks .regards,,,Lee

I'm just beginning to get my RIMS setup. I'm planning on using a Duinomite to PWM the heat tube element to begin with. Eventually my aim is to automate as much of the process as possible. At the very least I'd like to have a process diagram to list/monitor the current state of all the vessels, HLT, Mash Tun, Boiler, Chiller, pump, and I might as well use it to log all the data while I'm collecting it I guess....

What are your plans lcat45?
