Temperature tool for mashing and sparging beer

brewtool

Description

A small web application for monitoring brewing and sparging temperature when brewing beer or really anything. It also provides a calculator and has a log thingy. It is intended to be used with an Arduino but also include a fake daemon to "simulate" temperature changes.

Prerequisites

Application	Link/Command
nodejs	https://nodejs.org/en/
npm	https://nodejs.org/en/download/

Simplified setup (without Arduino sensing)

To get started; clone the run the setup. This will clear any cached dependencies, if they exists, and install them from scratch:

git clone https://github.com/jmrnilsson/brewtool.git
cd brewtool
make fake-run

Navigate to url below or simply type;

open http://localhost:3000/

That's it. Have fun!

Setup with sensing

Prerequisites before sensing with Arduino

Application	Link/Command	Comment
python 2.7.*	https://www.python.org	Only needed during build of SerialPort by node-gyp
An Arduino board
A USB-cable		i.e. Rev3 or something similar
Waterproof OneWire temperature sensor		i.e. DS18B20, DS1822, DS1820
Dallas Temperature	https://github.com/milesburton/Arduino-Temperature-Control-Library	Library
OneWire	http://playground.arduino.cc/Learning/OneWire	Library
Install Arduino Software	IDE https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/HomePage	Other tools can be used of course

Preparation

• Connect the thermometer with a correct resistor (according attached instructions).
• Look at the script in the IC folder. The thermomenter variable needs to be configured to the identity of the temperature sensor. This is the OneWire DeviceAddress. The script is called ./arduino/arduino_temperature_sensing.ino
• Connect temperature sensor with a USB
• Make sure all the node packages are installed (see below)
• Browse to http://localhost:3000/

To start type:

make run
