I'm just digging into this and have a question about the computer side of the build. Has anyone tried to substitute a Linux laptop to take the place of the RPi? I have done this with an Arduino Uno for a beer fermentation controller using the BrewPi software and didn't know if the HM project could work the same way.
If the WiFi side is RPi dependent, which is the preferable model, A or B? I'm thinking that if you put the wireless shield on the Arduino you can use the Model A. Or use the Model B and it's ethernet to get to the router and serve the web GUI. I'm also not as smart as I look so I hope this isn't too much of a throwaway question.
