Stuffed that up...here is the corrct pic for this paragraph! If this sensor is going into a liquid, get your brass or s/s tubing and squash one end in a vice. Fold it over and squash a gain, or do as I did with my s/s ones and give the bloke up the road a few beers to weld over the end: Cheers!

More Pics: this is the logger kit in it's box: More logger internal pics: Make sure the grey bands on the capacitors are pointing the right way or it won't work! Also note the order of the yellow, black, and red wires coming into the logger from the sensors. Cheers!

Got an old windows 98 computer cluttering up the place? Use it in your brewery to monitor and display temperature! About a year ago I posted a similar thread to this, but now that I have a digital camera its time to post again but with better explanations and pics added to it. Here is a simple...

Hi Bagnol, Yup, I have the relay board/temp system/program as Greg. I took an old computer around to him and he set it up. Works like a treat, I access it from this platform thingy called "KDE". If I ever have a hassle with it I take it back to him with a few beers to fix. This system controls...

Hi all, Thisll be a long question. I use DS18S20 temp sensors connected to a microcontroller-based circuit DIY kit (a picture of it is here http://quozl.netrek.org/ts/ ) which in turn connects via the serial port to an old windows 98 computer. On the screen I can read as I brew, the current...

Thanks for all the suggestions! n00ch's PictoWin link is pretty much what I am after. Will give it a run for a month to see if I want to fork out the $20 for it. Once again thanks for all the replies, we truly do have a top forum here! :super: Cheers :D

Sorry Rob, not quite what I'm after. :( Ultramon works for multiple monitors. I have one monitor but want only certain shortcut icons on my desktop to appear on certain desktops, not all to appear on all desktops. Thanks anyway. :) Cheers

Thought I'd ask my fellow brewers who are known to dabble in computer related things a question... :blink: I currently have a desktop thingy called MSVDM, its basic. It gives me four desktops on my monitor to choose from, open different programs on different desktops etc...but all four...

Hey Peter, my 2-bobs worth... Avoid anything with the word "Port" in it, you might be confused with the Port Dock Brewery... :P Think carefully about your wheat name, there will be two wheat beers coming out of the Barossa eventually (If you believe the papers). <_< Whales or Anchors? well...

Mmmmm...coco-pops....a new ingredient for a porter perhaps? Kenny, have you tried this from your pantry cupboard yet? :-) Cheers!

Be strong, brother, be strong. :lol: Looking forward to swapping the occasional keg... :beer:

And one day the Sheik gives the chauffeur the day off to impress his latest babe, forgets his sunnies, and goes blind from the reflection off the bonnet!

Brizbrew its obvious that you're hooked. Don't fight it any longer...go the kegs! Cheers

Hey Pedro, I rekon between us we could start up a side-business and put Palmer to shame by writing a very successful book: "Patience and perseverance - how to build a micro in Australia from absolute scratch". Be a bestseller... Cheers!

Hi Doc, And the answer isthere is NO straight answer.. There are probably hundreds of ways you can approach this. Here is JUST ONEand this is a very basic explanation, I do not mean to intentionally insult anyones intelligence I just like simple explanations!Now, lets say you approach the whole...

This isn't home-brew, but I remember about 15 years ago I was working in a rather special town (!) called Whyalla sharing a government house with an English teacher who was the most scabby-arsed bastard around. I mean he would leave kitchen cupboard doors open to save energy just in case he...

Actually it's Telstra working out how the f#@%k they are going to get some 'thing' I think they call 'ISDN' (?) down to the wharf at Goolwa so we can take fantastic plastic in future when we eventually open. I love it when someone from Perth has to ring me here in SA to tell me it will take...

No worries guys...looking forward to having a few beers and putting some faces to names/avatars! :party: Cheers

Hi all, Just a link to some more recent pics of the restoration work being done on the Railway Goods Shed at Goolwa. Will the brewery be up and running by Christmas? At this point your guess is as good as mine - mind you we have had some sunny weather lately which has given the builders a chance...

Oh, for f#*ks sake lads...
