SilverHalo's Digital thermostatic beer refreshment regulator - he writes...

This is my work in building an Arduino based digital thermostat for controlling my DIY kegerator.

The project is based around the Arduino and uses a LM35 sensor for temperature measurement, a solid state relay for turning on/off the refridgerator, and a serial LCD panel for displaying the temperature inside the fridge and a handy-dandy button to turn the back-light on for reading beer temperature in the dark! WoW!! .

I consider this v1.0 and plan to update this instructable as I add new and fun things that make beer drinking more pleasurable... as if that can really happen!
