If .NET brewed beer…
summary
Build applies .NET on a Meadow F7 featherboard (32 MB RAM, 32-thread limit) to automate a DIY fermentation chamber hacked from a cooler box, using a PT100 probe with an amplifier (PT100+amplifier) for liquid temperature, ambient sensors, and relays for 12 V heater and compressor control. Code runs on Mono with a Raspberry Pi web/API dashboard, uses PID + PWM control to avoid oscillation, includes simulated sensors for the demo, and is a working prototype but heater power and sensor wiring still need refinement.
