I have built anything for some time I have a GF now, it's a competent system but simply less fun than my own efforts as a result I'm again thinking about building a 'thing'.
I'd probably use CBPi to control it as it's well supported and I have a Pi to hand.
The Countertop Burtus20 (my first brewery) seems a good place to start and simple enough to modify until I get to the Hop and Adjunct additions.
The options seem to be :-
Drop cages of hops into the boil which is simply untidy and more difficult if I'm adding Candy Syrup which would need mixing.
A flow through system like the Picobrew or Minibrew, I like this as an idea but I don't know how they did it. Unless they used lots of valves and pumps.
If you have built a system with automated additions I'd appreciate it if you would be willing to share your design.
Many Thanks. Aamcle
