Brewing controller for an electric brewery
The controller runs the mash through temperature rests, and separate scripts hold boiling and cooling.
- Mash temperature rests, heating and the stirrer follow the scenario.
- A thermostat holds the fermentation temperature by heating or cooling.
- Batches, readings and Telegram reminders are kept in your account.
Layout, passport and parts for a still: Mash kettle
15 basic scripts run next to the scenario, each on its own.
The ready scenario covers mashing only: it has no boil or hop-addition steps, no stepped fermentation profile and no hydrometers. We do not sell breweries: the kettle stays yours.

Common questions
Does it run the whole brew?
No. The ready scenario covers mashing. Boiling and cooling run as separate scripts for now, and you add the hops yourself.
How is it different from an all-in-one brewing system?
An all-in-one system comes with its own kettle. oCBot is firmware for a ready-made board: the kettle, heating elements and sensors can be your own.
Can I try it without hardware?
Yes: the emulator has a mash build with the real firmware and virtual hardware.
