Yes SmartPID is the right choice for any brewing process automation...completely configurable, absolutely flexible and rich of smart features…much more than a PID or a thermoregulatory
About SSR you should select one suitable for you heating power,…you can dirve any load any power. For 3500W 220V ...

Long time since last post and lot of things happens !
Many homebrewers adopted SmartPID controller and I got lot of feedback that allow me to enhance and improve either HW and SW
Before summer break (at least in north hemisphere it’s summer time !) just few update on the project

Still working on ...

arzaman

New major feature for the smartPID temperature controller !

I have implemented on top of the smart thermostat the temperature profile management, something similar to the step mash feature of the brewing app

You can define up to 10 different profiles made by set point, ramp time and soak time than ...

Quick update on the project with special focus on new feature and enhancements of application SW
Delay Fridge start and PID auto tuning has been released and I have also added the configuration support for different beta coefficient for NTC sensors plus other minor changes coming from the beta ...

arzaman

Since I got few questions I would like to provide you an update of the project after the strategy review post indiegogo campaign.

I can confirm you that finally I have distributed 12 SmartPID to selected beta tester, it's an important milestone since after one year of work smartpid leave my ...

Hi
short project update for this beginning 2017
Development continue and I'm happy to share a couple of news

From HW perspective I succeed adding an I2C expansion port on the back panel that provides lot of flexibility and expansion capabilities. The port has “grove” pin out and there are lot of ...

End of the year is time for balance !
2016 has been very hard and exciting, one year of design, development, prototypes, test ..lot of work and effort but also satisfaction

Working to a plug-n-play and easy retrofit solution to upgrade original grinfather controller with Smartpid and need some suggestions and ideas from GF community

The idea is to keep the original case and switches, just removing STC200 and rewiring Smartpid in order to get full process automation ...

arzaman

SmartPID is not a simple controller or thermostat, is more an “open platform” powerful and flexible where the resources and I/O can be used for different applications, different environments and integration. My idea is to develop an ecosystem of “vertical” applications on top of a common set of ...

arzaman

During this month after launching we have collected lot of feedback and also questions either technical and commercial.
We have collected in the FAQ section on the web site, have a look for any doubt on the project !

[quote="arzaman"I have to wait until you have implemented the stirrers Logic somehow, before I can buy the controller.

In this phase I'm collecting feedback and I will take a note of your request and insert in feature roadmap
I'm afraid that no many people has this low level custom request for ...

arzaman

Understood your point generally speaking consider that SmartPID is completely programmable, if you have a complete flow charts with all conditions and variables and you are able to program ATMEL ARM processor you can code your custom request easily

Step Mash Pump = YES means that during all the ...

arzaman

exactly, under the setup menu-→ process parameter you can define two timers for ON/OFF cycle of the pump or stirrer (remember that you can assign the “pump” process to any output you like )

http://smartpid.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/pump-cycle.png

than you can define in what stages you want ...

arzaman

thank you for your interest and support in the project

I try to provide some ideas and suggestion on stirrer mangement

firs of all you can assing the pump/stirrer output to any not used output, since it seems you have a big motor my suggestion is to use either one of the two mechanical relay, or ...

Hi,
It Looks Great! I have Seen the Demo Video

That means i have just To Connect the 250v Part, the Temperature Sensor and install everything in a Nice Housing - that's it?!

If i would like To use a hendi with 3500 Watts i Need also a solid State Relais. The Relais ...

arzaman

Well...any idea about the estimated final pricing?

Good question..I can't provide the exact price now, I'm working with manufacturer to review production costs and preparing a business model
In electronic production costs are really dependent by volume and scale factor...the more people like the ...

I have prepared a feature comparison table between SmartPID and most common used thermostat

As you can easily see...there's no match :-(

When I complete the table I realize that comparing a fully programmable device with process automation capabilities and smart features like wifi and IoT ...

Following the thread (with the help of google translator)

Is the heating element stitched only to the bottom or is there any element on the side wall ?
