The Brautomat is operated via web browser. You can use your tablet, smartphone or pc.
Brautomat offers three different display views:
- Overview: all kettles are displayed
- Mash tun: MaischeSud kettle (first kettle) ist displayed
- Manual control cooking: only usable with induction hob GGM IDS2
Note: the display is an optional extension. Only Nextion ITEAD HMI 3.5" Touchdisplays are supported.
Brautomat32 supports (almost) any number of languages. Each language has its own language file. The language files in JSON format are stored in the folder data/language.
Support this project and translate Brautomat into a new language or correct existing language files!
A ciruit board for the ESP32 D1 Mini NodeMCU is available. In addition to the screw terminal blocks for the GPIOs, the board also offers a separate connection for the induction hob GGM IDS and three connections for temperature sensors Dallas DS18B20. The Gerber file is stored in the Gehaeuse folder. The board 2.1 can be operated with ESP32 D1 mini variant only.
The pin assignment shown is based on the ESP32 D1 Mini NodeMCU module from AZ-Delivery
