Automation without removing the fun of brewing, be as involved as you want to be! More automation means you can multitask or simply relax while brewing and then be alerted when to return for your next step.

  • Change between celsius and fahrenheit easily
  • Waterproof graphic display
  • Lugs at rear which can be changed to suit any Grainfather currently on the market

Can this device be used on any grainfather, either 110v or 220v?
Andres on Jul 8, 2020
BEST ANSWER: This box is not cross compatible with 110v and 220v. This box is intended for 110v only.
Does control box have the temperature probe cord attached?
Alan L Bowen on Mar 14, 2023
BEST ANSWER: Yes, the control box has the temperature prob with the box connected together
Anyone can confirm if Is there a version that can work with 220V?

So far, so good
I finally had to replace the original controller when it died on brew # 84. I’ve only used the new one once so far, and I didn’t use the app (I’ve seen quite a few difficulties with it online, so I decided to avoid that variable for now). It does a MUCH better job of controlling the temperature, and makes step mashing a breeze. Being able to set the timer to heat the mash water so it’s ready when I get up in the morning is a great feature.
