Build & Test control panel
March was spent testing and building the brewery control panel. The panel runs CraftBeerPi and this handle all the electrics. This gives us manual or automatic control of the 2 heating elements (hot liquor tank and boil kettle), as well as 2 electric pumps. We have programmed the control panel logic to allow us to maintain the temperature of the mash tun automatically using a counter flow heat exchanger.
