The test tube sounds like a good "standard" where there is none with the widely varying size of brew containers. HOWEVER, I want to try the following setup under different conditions, perhaps, not likely I admit, it might not be necessary. Just a short note on my initial experiment with the laser/cds photocell. Taking my trusty Fluke DVM, my keychain laser pointer and a rat shack cds cell, I hooked up the DVM to the cds cell and, after noting ambient reading for the light present in the room and setting the scale accordingly, I hit the cds with the laser from about 5 inches and I get a reading of about 0.153 ohms. This varied since (?) I was unable to hold it steady while looking at the meter. I had rather expected the laser to be too "powerful" for the cds, but, at least, the initial test looks encouraging. I'll try to put together a test stand today to see what kind of results that brings, it should be a challenge for my Swiss Army knife machine shop :). > WE WILL bring this beast under control.
