== Arduino Keg Meter/Barbot ==
Basically a way to measure how much beer has left a keg and the ability to log who drank how much beer. Similar project: http://kegbot.org/wiki/Main_Page
We could place the keg on a scale and measure how much less a keg weighs after a user has finished pouring, place the glass on a scale zero out the reading and then measure how much the glass weighs afterwards, or find a food safe flow meter to measure how much beer passed through the hose. I would like to use RFID to recognize each user and log the results to a webpage or a projector display of the current standings. This would be a great way to run a fund raiser and once the initial hardware was built super cheap to order extra RFID tags. I have all the supplies needed to build a kegerator except for a fridge to cool it. [[User:Mehuman|Mehuman]] 19:03, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

* Via Hackaday, if you have 27 minutes to kill, it seems that these guys talk you through making a remote control kegbot: [http://revision3.com/systm/kegbot/?ffp=true&autoStart=false] [[User:Sylviachi|Sylviachi]] 22:59, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
