In brewing beer, it is essential to precisely control the temperature, especially during processes such as mashing, fermentation, and cooling. The goal was to design a system that would not only record temperature data throughout the entire process but also allow real-time monitoring to ensure the optimal brewing process and achieve the desired beer quality.
For this solution, we used a Raspberry Pi running a Python script that communicates with the thermometer and simultaneously creates a web server to which we also connected a DS18B2 thermometer. This setup allows us to record temperature data and display it graphically through a web interface on an iPad. The system also provides the ability to monitor the rate of temperature changes, helping brewers maintain the correct temperature curve throughout the brewing process.
Thanks to remote access to this data, it is possible to continuously monitor the temperature even outside the brewing site, which is primarily used during long-term processes such as beer lagering or fermentation. This remote access allows for tracking the temperature development and responding to any deviations.
