Description:
picobrewserver 1.0.1
picobrew-server
This project reverse-engineers a server for the proprietary PicoBrew protocol for use with the PicoBrew Zymatic, a homebrewing machine. It is intended to provide an alternative to run the machine without a connection to the official servers at picobrew.com. Run your own server and sync your recipes offline.
HTTP API
The PicoBrew Zymatic's built-in Ardunio uses an unencrypted HTTP communication protocol. All request are GET requests and are not authenticated. The following documentation is based on Firmware 1.1.8.
