I like the idea of taking the brewing into account. It’s clear that the added cold water from the pump will result in cooling of the boiler water, and the amount of cooling is easy to calculate. But you probably need to add a sensor to measure the water flow.
- lmilcin 9y agoI have a sensor for water flow (bought replacement part from Saeco machine) and also sensor that measures the tank water temperature. The sensor is on a spring touching the bottom of the tank so that nothing has to be disconnected:) I also have a water level sensor which is a small plastic pipe mounted to the side of the tank. Inside it there is a floating magnet. On outside of the tank, there is a flat spring which pushes two reed switches to touch the side of the tank where the pipe is. This allows me to detect when water falls below acceptable level.
