Home Brewing Temperature Monitor Kit
Home Brewing Temperature Monitor Kit – Master Fermentation with Arduino Data Logging
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Whether you’re perfecting a lager at 12°C or a saison pushing 28°C, this kit turns an Arduino Uno into a rugged, water-resistant data logger that tracks liquid temperature, ambient pressure, and even fermentation activity through IMU-derived motion sensing. All data is timestamped and stored to a MicroSD card, so you can analyse every batch with scientific rigour. The sealed enclosure and waterproof probes keep your electronics safe in the humid, unpredictable world of a brew shed.
What You'll Build
A self-contained monitor that immerses two waterproof DS18B20 probes directly into your brew vessel and water bath, displaying real-time temperatures on an OLED screen while logging temperature, air pressure, and gyroscope-estimated wave vigour to SD card. The sealed enclosure, fitted with cable glands, protects against condensation and accidental spills, giving you a reliable companion through days of fermentation.
What You'll Learn
- Calibrating and reading precise temperatures from one-wire digital sensors
- Logging multi-sensor data with accurate timestamps using a DS3231 RTC
- Interfacing a barometric pressure sensor for atmospheric corrections and process insight
- Using an IMU to detect subtle vibration and estimate fermentation activity
- Soldering and waterproofing connections for sustained use in damp environments

Who This Kit Is For
This advanced kit suits B.Tech ECE/EEE students building industrial instrumentation projects, home brewers with a taste for DIY tech who want to log every variable, and Smart India Hackathon teams designing low-cost process monitors. If you’ve already built basic Arduino circuits and are comfortable soldering, you’ll stretch your skills into real-world data acquisition that pairs perfectly with microbiology coursework.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code and start a conversation with the AI companion, or drop us a message on WhatsApp. We’ll talk you through the exact wiring and code for this project.
Can I submerge the enclosure in the brew?
No, the enclosure is splash‑proof, not submersible. The waterproof probes go into the liquid; keep the enclosure above the fill line, with glands sealing the cable entries.
How accurate is the wave height estimate?
The MPU6050 provides an indirect estimate based on acceleration—not a true height. It’s useful for tracking relative fermentation vigour, not absolute millimetres.
Do I need my own brew kettle or fermenter?
Yes, this kit supplies only the electronics and sensors. You provide the brewing vessel, tubing, and ingredients to complete your setup.
Brewing — Waterproof DS18B20 water temp, BMP280 air pressure and IMU wave height estimate logged to SD. Housed in sealed enclosure.
