Arduino automation with TFT

[Cyclops]

Hi everyone just making this thread as a bit of a log to my automation on my 100l brewery.

At the moment i am still writing all the code for the tft touchscren so i can navigate and put different values in.

I have put a little video of the menu system on youtube and can be found here :)

looking good.. but i didnt catch the big red brew button

Im with Baldbrewer and would like to read about and see pics of the build, you must have found a few tft features and the way round em useful to anyone wanting to copy your work.. so keep us updated..

I will make this my build thread but my code is not the greatest and there probably is better a better way of writing it.

I have the UTFT library which works wonders for buttons. The hardest part Is making the buttons to display, then you have to have the touch information inside the loop so that it keeps recording that part.
I will get some pics of the build up from the start and then use this as I update it :)
