Oooh, I'm digging that clay tile roof and solid masonry construction -- they don't build 'em like that anymore! (okay, I do have some questions about the capacity of that lexan roof on the entryway -- it will be subjected to snow drift and sliding snow loads... Also, grade is not positively sloped away from the foundation)

The micro in that circuit is a PIC 16F57 - cost me about $0.75.

Ha - in Italy that's the only way do they build them.

Interesting, as during my trips I saw quite a few that had concrete frames, and the wall openings were infilled with (non-load-bearing) masonry. Don't make me dig through the photo albums and scan pics...

really cool, is the micro a program once type or can you wipe it and program it again?

This thread is awesome.

Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes:

"Anyone can make something that works. Only an engineer can make something that barely works."

To an optimist, the glass is half full.
To a pessimist, the glass is half empty.
To an engineer, the glass is twice a big as it should be.

What, no instrumentation to view water level, input voltage, or boiler pressure?

X2

How do adjust timing for tamp, grind and bean moisture content?
