I&#39;ve been fascinated by electro-pneumatic process control ever since I attended a technology in production expo when I was at school.</p> <p>How well does the liquid level sensor work with froth bubbles forming on the top of the beer when it is dispensed ?</p> <p>Automatically putting the lids on the cans after filling, looks like a possible future enhancement ?</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=30069&AppID=491&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">https://community.element14.com/challenges-projects/project14/b/show-and-tell/posts/building-the-brains-of-a-home-beer-canning-machineWed, 19 Aug 2026 18:16:55 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:ee11faff-b353-4215-b3ca-46fd3bf98c60nimion_art2<p>This is a really cool project and a fun read! The 12V vs 24V problem would have likely gotten me too. Great work!&nbsp;</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=30069&AppID=491&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
