Another Temperature controller

[Batz]

Is anyone using one of these ATM? It looks the goods for times I'm called away to work, will sit at fermentation and then can raise for Diacetyl rest, then crash chill. Looks the same as the Keg King one.

Any feedback on these?

Been using the cheeky peak one on my fermentation freezer, going on a year and a half now and it hasn't so far given me any grief.

Good to hear pauly, how many temperature changes do you normally program in?

Still using this one that I bought 10 years ago.

Ah, I must have the previous model, no temp change option. Still, if it's the same controller with updated firmware it should be just as reliable and now even more awesome.

Yes I have several of them too, but not capable of doing what I'm looking for now.

Yes have them too.

for that price you could put together a brew pi if you're feeling handy

We sell them at work, never had one returned. But not sure if anyone has used them for the stepping profile.

Now I'm tempted to update.

That is good to see.

Had a crack at the programming last night after a couple of sherbs and confused myself. Will try with a clearer head over the weekend.

Now I did look at the instructions and it's not easy for poor old me. I think I have read they are not straight forward, and straight forward is needed for this old dude.

Might be getting confused here but what about the stc 1000 that you can flash to put you're temperature profile on for lagers ales kolsch styles up to 6 profiles ???

OK now I need your help. What stc 1000 do I need? I know someone who can flash it for me.

Search for the thread its on here somewhere

Hopeless on my phone will dig it up when I get home

I think Moad is you're man

 

[paulyman]

The stc 1000+ is a separate unrelated, but still awesome, entity to this unit though isn't it? Just so we are all on the same page.

Sorry thought I might have been on the wrong page but doesn't it do the job Batz is after once reprogrammed
It was Noscos thread stc1000+
