Temperature Probe Setup (6/28/16)

NOTE: I have basically no experience with any of this, other than a few starter projects using a breadboard. I have been using the internet to figure things out. I also do not know C/C++ (used with the arduino) - it is totally possible to figure out how to write code for it based on examples online!

I finally got together my supplies to make the temperature probe. I have also ordered a water heater and the other things I need to eventually automate the heating during brewing, but I will figure the rest of that out once it arrives. For now, here is how I hooked up the temperature probe:

The temperature probe is the DS18B20 model. I downloaded the OneWire library for my Arduino and used the example code called "DS18x20_Temperature." After uploading that to my Arduino, I opened Tools>Serial Monitor to view the outputs of my sensor: the temperature showed up in Fahrenheit and Celsius, measured accurately each second. I might eventually get a screen to display it but for now this works.

What the Serial Monitor reads each second:

ROM = 28 51 C1 4C 7 0 0 60
  Chip = DS18B20
  Data = 1 A 6 4B 46 7F FF 6 10 D  CRC=D
  Temperature = 96.62 Celsius, 205.92 Fahrenheit
