" summary

Garage all-grain brewery uses a Grainfather for mashing and a hacked fridge with two relays to control compressor and heater, feeding temperature data into InfluxDB + Grafana for long-term graphs and alerts; control stack runs docker on Raspberry Pi with Python/.NET Core and moves from Arduino to ESP8266-based sensors (WeMos D1 mini, Sonoff TH10) and Particle Photon for wireless units. Built features include a running BrewPi/BRWY controller that holds fermentation profiles, a digital hydrometer prototype and keg-level monitoring via a Bluetooth scale; system achieves repeatable fermentation temperatures and consistently good beer.
