Profiles
The ability to create, add and edit custom and powerful Profiles is one of the core strengths of the RAPT ecosystem.
The Profiles in your library (both created and imported) are viewable in My Profiles. Note: You must select the appropriate Profile type (BrewZilla, Fermentation etc) in order to view the associated Profiles.
Global Profiles can be found in Search Profiles - this is a curated list of profiles for brewing and fermenting.
Profiles are specific to each RAPT device: BrewZillas, Fermentation Chambers, Temperature Controllers and Pills. Profiles are essentially a set of 'steps' that can be triggered in various ways such as time, temperature, gravity and even rate of fermentation (measureed through gravity velocity).
Using profiles, you can develop an automated profile to ramp the temperature of an ale fermentation, or to perform a complex step mash in a BrewZilla without lifting a finger!
For example a user can set an Ale fementation profile where fermentation is initally at 18°C until a specified gravity is reached*, then gradually ramps the temperature over a specified number of days. Hold at this temperature for two additional days for a diacetyl rest and then crash chill at 0°C for three days. Had the temperatures at each step been set manually, this would require a lot of time and increase the probability of error in the steps which is just one reason why profiles are a great feature to produce repeatable results.
Brewing profiles can be created that allow for complex or simple mash steps that automatically proceed to a mashout step. Alerts can be set up to notify the brewer to add hops etc.
Alerts can be set for the start or end of every profile step.
To receive alerts on your mobile device, you must have the Google Play or Apple App Store app installed.
You also need to allow notifications for the RAPT app on your device. Once this is set up, alerts will be pushed to your phone or any device with the RAPT App.
*Requires a Bluetooth Bonded Pill for gravity triggers
