Brewery temperature alerts before problems become batch loss
The problem
Temperature problems rarely happen at convenient times. Without reliable alerts, drift overnight, chiller failures, and cold storage issues may go unnoticed until the next manual check—when response options are more limited.
The FermaStat solution
FermaStat sends smart alerts when temperatures drift or equipment stops responding on configured devices. Your team gets earlier notice on tanks, chillers, freezers, and fridges so you can respond before small issues become expensive losses.
What you can monitor or control
- Fermentation tank drift alerts
- Chiller and glycol supply warnings
- Freezer and fridge temperature notifications
- Equipment offline or non-responsive alerts
Example setup
A taproom brewery might monitor two fermentation tanks, one chiller, and one walk-in cooler: platform ($100/month) plus four monitored devices ($40/month). Alerts reach the head brewer overnight when the chiller supply rises unexpectedly.

Frequently asked questions
- What triggers a temperature alert?
- Alerts are sent when configured devices report temperatures outside expected ranges or when equipment stops responding as expected, depending on your alert settings.
- Can alerts reach staff who are off-site?
- Yes. Alerts are designed to notify your team through configured notification channels so cellar and off-site staff can respond.
- Can FermaStat monitor freezers and fridges?
- Yes. Cold storage, hop freezers, and fridges can be configured as monitored devices with the same alert workflow as tanks and chillers.
- Do alerts replace manual checks?
- Alerts reduce reliance on scheduled manual checks by surfacing drift and failures between visits. Many breweries still combine both during early adoption.
