First, Thank you guys for the replies. Second, I apologize for the delays in responding. We had a family emergency we have been dealing with over the past few weeks. I truly appreciate the feedback received from my last post. To answer one of the questions, I do have an external alarm hooked up my c...

I am dialing in very nicely the temps, times, Processes & States are working very well....but, I am struggling with the damn Alarm function.

Good Morning- I've been brewing for a number of years on a 3 burner propane system. Recently, I made the decision to switch to electric. We are the in the process of converting a room behind our bar (4-tap setup) into a brewery. Initially, I was interested in a PID setup. After researching the BCS s...
