UniFlex Brewing Control System
Updated October 18, 2021
Description
The UniFlex Control System is a turnkey, 30A, 240VAC, “plug-and-brew” controller for brewing
or distillation applications. This is the first modular based control system of its kind, allowing for
both user-definable options during order and a future-upgradeable architecture. For example,
the controller can be made initially or later upgraded to include the following options: choice of
power feed and plug(s), single or dual vessel power, single or dual pump/accessory power,
integrated user I/O, proportional power control, DIN rail mount, internal cooling option, and
plug-and-play temperature probes.
The UniFlex is built on a foundation of BruControl technology and integrates into the
BruControl application’s ecosphere. The UniFlex’s core is an ESP32 micro-controller, which
communicates with the BruControl application via Wi-Fi network. BruControl, along with
UniFlex, UniCon, UniShield, or DIY-built control interfaces facilitates a continuous upgrade and
integration path across the whole brewery including brewing, fermentation, refrigeration,
dispensing, and cleaning. This means a brewery can be incrementally updated over time to
include higher and more advanced degrees of control, monitoring, data logging, and
automation.

operations associated with the BruControl application is provided in the BruControl User
