Brewtools FCS gives you brewery-grade fermentation control at home. Monitor temperature, pressure, and gravity in real time, automate cooling and spunding, and log every detail of your brew for consistent, repeatable results.
The Brewtools FCS (Fluid Control System) is a modular, expandable platform that brings professional-level fermentation control into the home brewery or small commercial setup.
At its core, the system combines smart sensors, a control hub, and intuitive software to give you real-time insight and control over your fermentation.
Monitor fermentation in real time – track temperature, pressure, and gravity (with the Density Sensor) so you always know exactly what’s happening inside your fermenter.
Automate control – use the system to drive cooling, heating, and spunding valves automatically, following a fermentation profile you set.
Protect your batch – the system constantly checks that connected devices (pumps, solenoids, heaters) are behaving as expected, and will alert you if something is wrong.
Log and review data – everything is recorded and accessible via the display module and Brewtools cloud services, so you can compare batches and refine your process.
Grow with your brewery – the modular design means you can start simple (basic sensors and control) and expand later with more modules and automation as your setup evolves.
Sensors (temperature, pressure, density, and more) are installed into your fermenter using sanitary TC fittings.
These sensors connect to the I/O Module, which powers them and links them to the system.
The Display Module (a touch-screen controller) runs the software, connects via Wi-Fi, and lets you build fermentation profiles, monitor progress, and make adjustments.
The FCS then operates valves, solenoids, or relays to control temperature, pressure, and other parameters automatically, based on your set profile.
Traditional fermentation controllers often only handle temperature. The FCS takes things much further—bringing together temperature, pressure, and gravity monitoring with automation and data logging in one platform. It’s designed to give you repeatability, consistency, and confidence that every batch is on track.
Whether you’re a dedicated homebrewer or a small craft operation, the Brewtools FCS offers brewery-grade control at a scale and price suited to hobby and pilot brewing.
