Not bad I suppose. #threefloyds #craftbeernotcrapbeer #craftbeer #barrelaged

One step farther on my #automatedgreenhouse project. I am now logging the data to #sql so I can view the data from anywhere (#phpmyadmin). Next step will be to publish to a website with some fun graphs. #raspberrypi #MySQL #greenhouse #php #databases #mariadb

My mini #automatedgreenhouse is thriving nicely. #raspberrypi #greenhouse #automation #circuitry #gardening

Did some soldering and got rid of the breadboard. I'm monitoring temp, humidity, and light levels. When the light level is low during the day it'll turn on the lights for the plants. Next step to my greenhouse will be monitoring soil moisture to automate watering. #greenhouse #raspberrypi #automatedgreenhouse #sensors #gardening #iot #rpi

We got a little bit of rain yesterday. My backyard is now a small lake. 😊 #water #lake #rain #flooding

The beginnings of my automated greenhouse. Right now I'm monitoring light levels, and if the #raspberrypi sees low light levels during the day, the lights will kick on. I'm also monitoring temp and humidity and that will eventually lead to heating or cooling if necessary, and I will also eventually monitor soil moisture levels to then water automatically. #programming #greenhouse #rpi #gardening

My beginnings of building an automated greenhouse. So far I'm able to monitor temperature, humidity, and light levels. #raspberrypi #computerprogramming #python #sensors #iot #beginnerprogrammer #greenhouse #automation

My wine soaked farmhouse cheddar. Another day Soaking in some red wine and it'll then be time to wax it. #latourbrewingco #drunkencheese #cheese #cheddar #farmhousecheddar #craftbeer #wine #redwine #beer #beercellar

I love my raspberry pi magazine subscription. #raspberrypi

My first attempt at making a beer infused cheese. For this I made a cheddar and used an #uneannee American wild beer to soak in the curds before I pressed it. We'll see what it tastes like in a month or two. #cheese #cheesemaking #beer #chicagocraftbeer #sourbeer #cheddar #latourbrewingco
