    CraftBeerPI Brew Controller

    I understand the DS18B20 needs from 3 to 5V to work. If you are using your RPi3's 3.3V, have you checked that you have at least 3V at the connectors and cable joints ? I personally am terminating my DS18B20s with RJ45 plugs (+5V, Gnd & 1-wire on pins 4, 5 and 6 respectively). I am using 4-way...

    An internal-keg filtering system

    Dent The accolades "best brew tip in ages", "nice one", "great idea", "genius" and "awesome" have all been said earlier in this thread and I concur. In a recent thread on AHB people were lamenting the loss of innovators. This thread makes it clear that they are still with us. Well done. Steve

    Using the average is only OK if half the minimum to maximum range is relatively small compared to the value you want to achieve.

    Repurposing Fermtroller as Brewpi

    Although the BrewPi code is readily available, I doubt that reworking the code is either a cost or time effective option considering the under $5 cost of an Arduino Uno R3.
