Here's some screenshots after my brew. I know it's recorded the times, but I manually controlled the kettle the entire time. It never ran the timer.

Today I used the craftbeerpi controller to do a brew for the first time. I couldn't get the mash schedule recipe to actually control the kettle. I only have one kettle (BIAB) and no pumps/agitators etc. It reads temp ok, and i can manually activate the element using the flame button on the...

I will be all over this!

Also interested in the keg if it doesn't go.

The four buttons he's playing with on the video are a diamond shape, a car, a flame, and a refresh logo. What are the first 2 for (as far as I can tell the flame just manually turns it on) and I'm guessig the last one just refreshes it. Ok, so the first one (diamond) sets target temp, but isn't...

Hi tumi2, Can I make a suggestion that you've probably already tried? I'm at the same stage as you and have just wired up my prototype and also found the pi wouldn't activate the SSR (also using a dodgy ebay Fotek). A 9V battery did however. I was annoyed thinking I was having the same problem...

I just did exactly that, and have done it a few times in the past. I see no issues with it. I would put a rubber band or something around the foil to stop any contaminants creeping in. The reason for the loose foil is to allow CO2 to escape during it's fermentation, which shouldn't be an issue...

Oh, I just figured it out. I needed to use the Rpi's IP, not the router's one. Found it and now it works. Thanks for the help sittingaround!

I am yeah. I'm using my network's IP address (from the router) and adding 5000 as you describe. Doesn't work. The only thing I can see where I'm not in line with the instructions is running the script: sudo python runserver.py On Manuel's instructions, it says to run that, then it will be...

Hi Manuel, I have been trying to get this set-up for days with no success. I have installed in my pi following your online guide/video and that seems successful. Whenever I try to access the 5000 server from another device on my network, nothing happens. I also tried running the script sudo...

In like flynn

Turns out I'm just a massive moron and had typed Manuel183 instead of Manuel83. My eyes saw a 1. I'll put my head in the sand now.

Just tried your suggestion. No go. It says to enter username for 'github.com' and password for '[email protected]' I might email Manuel.

Yep. On one page he says to use a line ending with craftbeerpi.git and on another he says to use a line just ending with craftbeerpi I've tried both, and both resulted in the cloning happening (just like on the instruction video) but they both then result in a line prompting for username, then...

Ok, I've been trying for ages and I'm pretty confident that I'm following the install instructions correctly. Each time I clone from github using the command line program on Raspbian, it clones then asks me for a username and password, which I can't find anywhere online. Anyone had this issue?

Has anyone tried this beer? I had it at Brisbane Airport, and understand Green Beacon is a local microbrewery there. I really enjoyed it and wouldn't mind having a crack at cloning it. Interested to see if anyone has any idea what hops is in it? From what I've read it's a wheat ale, but suspect...

Thanks Manuel, This unit looks exactly the same as yours, but is just a different brand. It also supports 3 - 32VDC. So I'm guessing the 20A & 40A versions will both be suitable? Cheers Mat

Hi Manuel, I'm going to give this a crack with my raspberry pi. I found your build instructions following your website's links and it calls for a SS relay. The one you have is 20A. On ebay you can get pretty affordable FOTEK ones that are 20A and 40A. Does it matter which one? Cheers, Mat

I just purchased grain to make a similar recipe for Oatmeal Stout. After reading a lot about rolled oats from supermarket vs flaked oats etc, I ended up getting the quick oats. Apparently that's more effective that the rolled ones. I'll find out when I brew I guess.

I decided to brew a US Amber with the Chinook and other grains I had. It's a nice recipe actually. I'll order the Target tomorrow and do the LP properly. Cheers everyone!
