Data Logging

What are the options for logging temperature to a file? I would like to track fermentation mash and temperatures so that I can save them with my batch notes. Here are my goals:

-Start logging when I hit a certain step in a process
-Record the temperature and setpoint of multiple probes, as well as the state of certain outputs
-Stop logging when I reach another step in the process
-Save this file to disk; Excel, csv, whatever
-Run multiple logging operations for different processes/fermenters simultaneously and independently

Is this something I can accomplish? It doesn't look like the built in data log can write to a file in 4.0. Are there external tools that can do this or parts of what I'm looking for?

The BCS does not log to files, it is only maintained in memory on the BCS.

However, if you can write some code, then yes, everything you want to do can be done using the API.
