HERMSStep

Plugin for CraftBeerPi3 to support temperature monitoring of two kettles simultaneously for HERMS process where the HLT is maintained at temperature x while the mash is recirculated through it until it reaches temperature y. This also gives one indirect control over the rate of temprature change in the mash tun; depending upon the delta between x and y.

PROPERTIES

HLT: The kettle serving as the hot liquor tank

HLT Offset: Number of degrees above mash tun target to maintain the HLT during step

Mash Tun: The kettle serving as the mash tun

Recirculation Pump: The pump responsible for moving wort through the HLT and back into the mash tun

Target Temp: Desired temperature of mash tun at start of rest

Rest: Rest in minutes after hitting Target Temp

CONTROL FLOW

Init -> Recirculation Pump On, HLT On

Begin Loop
   Mash target not reached -> Maintain HLT temp offset
   Mash target reached -> Pump off, HLT Off, goto Rest
End Loop

Rest -> wait for z minutes
Rest Time Remaining < Ramp Next -> Begin to re-heat HLT 
Rest expired -> proceed to next step
