Though there are nay-sayers about using a Pi 4 to run BruControl, I spent time because I own 7 Pi’s. I started with the original model, to build a wireless fermentation/keggerator monitor with temp sensors (Teensynet with 3.2 Teensy circa 2013). I own 2 - 4 G Pi 4’s, and wanted to put one to use rather than buy a mini PC. I looked at CraftbrewPi, but it did not have not enough I/O for my needs and it doesn’t do propane.
Admittedly, it takes a bit longer to load the large amount of data and programs than a PC would (unless you have a 3 year-old laptop with a A-12 chip like I do) but once up, It’s fast enough for brewing. I am happy enough. Maybe you will be too.
