  • My Brewpi Build

    Spent the last 2 weekends putting together the various components required to have a temperature controlled fermentation chamber, along with remote monitoring (via a website).

    (For background, I followed the instructions here)

    After much soldering, poking of fingers, and scratching of heads, my BrewPi fridge is doing its first test run (with the ever important task of regulating the temperature of a glass of water )

    Here are some pics:
    All the various components:

        Cool!

        I might pick your brain on this at a later stage. My Pi was decommissioned as an entertainment centre and needs to do something.

          Very nice? How is the globe working for you? Do you have an air circulation fan to get a even temp all around?

            The globe is temporary, I've got a ceramic reptile heater on the way from eBay.
            That said, the 60w globe seems to work just fine.

            I don't have a fan, might investigate that at some point.
