VIZHON

Your ferment, watched around the clock

VIZHON is a WiFi temperature sensor with cloud monitoring and alerts, built for craft brewers. Its stainless steel probe screws straight into your fermenters, tanks and lines, and it works just as well in a cold room or fridge.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Fit the probe

    Screw the probe into a ½-inch port on your fermenter, brite tank or line, or put the Basic probe in a fridge or cold room. Power the unit from USB (24 V on the Industrial) and connect it to your WiFi from your phone. No app to install.

  2. Step 2

    We watch it for you

    The sensor reports temperature and WiFi signal to the VIZHON cloud around the clock.

  3. Step 3

    Get alerted in time

    Set your own high and low limits per tank. If a ferment runs warm, the glycol fails, or the sensor goes quiet, you get an email or SMS straight away.

What you get

  • Live temperature and signal strength on your dashboard
  • Your own high and low temperature limits for each tank
  • Alert if a sensor stops reporting, not only when it's too warm
  • Email alerts included; SMS alerts from prepaid credits
  • Temperature history for every batch, so you can see what happened
  • Add a sensor per fermenter or tank, all on one dashboard

Pricing

You buy the sensor once and keep it. A monitoring subscription is required for each sensor. All prices are in South African rand.
