ISO BCS-462

Searching for a BCS-462. Got one laying around that you haven't gotten to doing anything with? Would love to take it off of your hands. PM me with what you might have around, need one for a commercial brewery FV controller enclosure. Cheers!

Re: PID and slow changes

So we're over(under)shooting by 3-4F, and yes, the temp does go back up after the undershoot, and since it's such a large amount of liquid, it took about 15 hours to get back to where it needed to be. Example - on one of our states we have the temp going from 66-61F after diacetyl rest. I went to 61...

PID and slow changes

Perhaps not the best title, so I'll try to explain the best I can. So, we have a 13BBL fermenter with 5BBL of beer in our fermenter right now. We are lagering and want to crash the beer slowly, something like 5F/day. When we did our calibration batch with the default PID settings, we had trouble sto...

Set min limits in Data Log?

Just wondering if I'm perhaps doing something wrong here, but I can't seem to adjust the left and right min values in version 3.3's Data Log page. Despite my distain towards Flash in 3.2, having the ability to see the finer details in my charts was something the HTML5 charts don't have. Then again, ...

Re: Temperature fluctuations

JonW got the winning answer! As soon as I grounded both ends of the drain wire in my ethernet cable, all my readings settled down. Thanks for everyone's suggestions and tips! JonW, if you're in Denver, look us up, we owe you a beer. :) Danny Wang - Overlord/Head Brewer CAUTION: Brewing Company - Den...

Re: Temperature fluctuations

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll play around with grounding configurations and see if this issue goes away. I did at one point use one cat6 cable for both probes, but for troubleshooting I've just tried getting one probe to behave correctly. The cat6 cable does have a drain wire which is not grounde...

Temperature fluctuations

So, I'm out of ideas, and want to see if anyone has anything else clever I can try. We are a new microbrewery in Denver, CAUTION: Brewing Company, and we are planning to use a BCS in the brewery. Right now, we are looking to control glycol solenoids to our 13BBL fermenters with the BCS. Trouble is, ...
