Meshing BCS with Brewmation

Post by ArmstrongBrew »

Good Morning

This is my first post and I'm a newbie so please bare with me. I am currently controlling a 2bbl brew system with a brewmation setup. I really like it but I would like the option to remote control it with an iPad like the BCS. I'll give the specs of the system:

(3) LOVE controllers that control 3 sets of heaters (HLT, RIMS and Kettle)
(5) heaters total - (2) 6kW in the HLT, (1) 5kW in the RIMS and (2) 6kW in the Kettle [kettle has a potentiometer on the panel to control boil, panel has an on/off switch for these
(2) pumps - water and wort pumps, panel has an on/off switch for these
(1) double headed peristaltic pump with potentiometer to vary the flow rate, on/off switch and dial on the panel.

If I could tap the BCS into the board to monitor, that would be good. If I could actually use it to control, that would be great! I'm just not sure how possible it is because things are wired to manual on/off switches.

Thanks
Nick
