    TILT HYDROMETER

    Hi I have one of the early tilts. It has changed the wY I brew. They really are not for the definitive SG readings. They are to monitor the brewing process. So you can follow the brewing progress. And you can see when the brewing is finished and the SG stops dropping. You can also do all...

    Matho's controller

    Hi Nzbrad As one of the designers for the Lael controller I can help you. But you did things ass about. Boards from pcbway! Why did you not just buy one from Lael? There were changes made along the way. Including a resistor inline with the temp sensor to stop it blowing up when plugged and...

    The Brauduino (Matho’s Controller) Build/Advice/Question Thread

    The Brauduino (Matho’s Controller) Build/Advice/Question Thread

    Hey Brendandrage The problem you are experiencing is indeed EMF or basically noise caused by the relay switching the current to the pump. When the relay opens and closes it causes a spark and along with that an RF output that then is “ received” by some of the sensitive circuits in the display...

    I would suggest you contact Lael as he has the spares. Alternatively you could buy a plug and solder it on the cable? Zwitter James
