Yeah I wanted a long handle but I think this turned out a bit too long. Never mind, just an excuse to make another!

G'day fellas! Just finished my kegerator - let me know what you think! Got a fair bit of inspiration from this forum when I was designing it I've got a complete build log too for those who are interested http://imgur.com/a/AfgnY

For those students who see this thread and are interested I have made a Facebook page! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Monash-Uni-Brewers-Club/1510782745810052?ref=bookmarks Im still working out the details for non-student members.. Hoping to start doing some events next semester!

Yeah Grainer i definitely emphasised our aim of teaching the art of brewing rather than the art of getting drunk. The official word was that high competition made numbers tight and they simply couldn't squeeze us in. Try pressing for a better reason but it was hardly worth the effort. Might have...

Bad news! Found out that the clubs and societies association at Monash has regrettably rejected our application. At least we still have the board game society.. For those interested, I am still pressing ahead without MSA affiliation however it will take a bit more planning.

Progress has slowed up considerably Marksy as I have been forced to turn my attention away to less important things (namely uni). I have have distracted myself with other silly projects such as aqauponics and cider. But I really like where the controller is going. I have a few more ideas on...

thats just amazing! great job man

Thanks for the tips guys. Anyways just an update: sent off the club application form to the clubs and society admin so fingers crossed we can get approval!

Strange that it only locks up after half an hour. Possibly your sensor decoding is lagging up the system? The benefits of being a uni student on holidays :D

Ah well I only had a glimpse at it when I went into see my friend do the prac, still better than nothing! Yeah that would be pretty good, but would probably be a nightmare of regulations and paperwork. What kind of certification do you think would be required to brew for events?

Yep not much has changed! :chug:

Sounds good Dave, what language is matho's code written in? Are you just going to upload it to a microprocessor? -Michael

Hey guys thought I would share my home made arduino PID controller. It uses a DS18b20 temperature sensor connected to an arduino uno which in turn controls a relay connected to my keg king element. I use it mainly to heat my strike water and to maintain my mash temps, but sometimes to control...

Well I did do a search for brewing books and articles at the uni library :P didnt get many hits though yeah with O'week coming up soon I'll probably wander around and have a chat to other clubs about how they got started. On another note I heard back from the chem eng department and they are...

Yeah that would be fantastic, especially with student safety being one of the key barriers to starting the club! Are they lecturers/researchers? Cheers -Michael

Are there any Monash students around here that are interested in brewing beer? Im in the process of starting a new brewing club at Monash Uni and Im trying to gauge student interest. Also does anyone else have experience with brewing clubs at universities? I'd love to hear from you about your...
