Re: Joyride Brewing Company
CD, We use 24VAC George Fischer motorized ball valves to open and close the 2" steam supply to the boil kettle. The 10" probe in the boil kettle inputs to the BCS, and through a simple temp loop statement in the BCS, sends the output signal to a solid state relay board to open and close a ...

Re: Joyride Brewery
Thanks for the props! It's made by Panduit and comes in different widths and heights. It's the only way to go building a clean looking control panel that you can revise, you buy it at an electrical supply house, (or maybe online?). Here's the Panduit website link: http://www.panduit.com/en/products-...

Re: Float Switch Issue
Sorry, I knew OUT0 was the HLT element SSR input, I didn't know if you had a parallel process for it in the logic for the HLT temp probe, I know you can't control the same output from a process and ladder logic at the same time.

Re: BCS control from an iPad
np0x, Jon mentioned that you are considering updating Brew Buddy to work with the BCS-462 with the 4.0 firmware upgrade? If so we would welcome the additional control from 4-6. It's a great app btw!

Re: Joyride Brewery
Thanks Jon, the BCS-462 systems are working great. After a few months of operation, they want me to modify some temperature controls on the fermenters to a 5 degree swing timed temperature process for 24-48 hours higher to lower then stabilize at an ending fermentation temperature, so I want to get ...
