All RAPT devices are designed to be used in conjunction with the RAPT Portal. Once connected to WiFi and registered to the RAPT Portal, a world of powerful customisation opens up for the user.
The RAPT Gen 4 BrewZilla can be controlled through the RAPT Portal in two different ways.
Manual Control can be enabled in the Dashboard of the RAPT Portal.
Enabling Manual Control gives the user limited, real time control of the RAPT Gen 4 BrewZilla directly through the RAPT Portal.
The other way to control the RAPT Gen 4 BrewZilla is through the use of Brewing Profiles.
Profiles alllow you to create powerful, complex but easy to setup and use brewing profiels. The use of Profiles allows brew day to be nearly hands off, even with (for example) complex step mashes. Incorporating steps for pre heating strike water, mash out etc are simple to set up and run through the RAPT Portal.
For a guide to setting up and running Brewing Profiles on the RAPT Gen 4 BrewZilla please refer to Profiles
