Hello all,
Ok, I am an amateur home brewer and need to control the temperature of the wort during fermentation. So I’m looking for a cheap temperature probe to connect to an Allen-Bradley 1746-IV8 card for a SLC 500 process to read the temperature and then turn on a heater when the temp falls below a set point, then turn off the heater when the wort gets to high set point. I put the fermeter in my basement, were it’s cool so I won’t have to worry about turning on a chiller….I hope!
My fermenters are a 5gal. pal and a 5gal. glass carboy.
Any ideas of what I'll need for this?
Thanks.
