Re: BCS RIMS Build
First Brew day in the record books. I love the BSC. Other than a few tweaks, everything worked flawlessly. First brew is my Vanilla, Bourbon Barrel Porter. I guess I need to update my firmware now and work on a HMI screen. Adam, thanks for your help today, I'll let you know the results.

Re: BCS RIMS Build
Here's my old rig, the prototype for the process. A very reliable, easy to brew on system, but when I saw the BCS platform, I just had to build a new rig around it. Not to worry, we are are growing club, and having two rigs will give more people the opportunity to brew!

Re: BCS RIMS Build
There's a couple swtiched to add to the control panel for the gas valves, but here's a peek so far. The box beneath the rig will house all the SSR's, power supplies and transformers.

Hello all. I wanted to post the latest progress on my RiMS build. I'm down to having the control panel left, and I'll start brew trials.

Re: Temperature Association with Digi 16
I suspected that was what I needed to do. I've been playing with this thing in the virtual sense for a couple months now. Not a big deal to reassign some outputs and do some re-programing. I see why my pic's wont upload, they are too large. Thanks so much for your edvice and help.
