About this app

PLAATO is a reinvented airlock that monitors your ongoing fermentation, sending
the key parameters directly to your phone.

PLAATO lets you:
- Monitor the fermentation activity
- Measure the ambient temperature [°F/°C]
- Estimate the Specific gravity and alcohol content [°Oe, %w/w]

PLAATO features:
• WiFi-connection - Access and share your data from wherever you are, using
the PLAATO-app.
• Versatile - Works on beer, cider, wine and all other alcoholic fermentations.
• Replaces your ordinary airlock - Simply switch to PLAATO, and monitoring will
start
• Real time access to data - During the fermentation, you have access to the
essential parameters in real-time, giving you an unique insight of how different
strains of yeast work, how temperature affects the rate of fermentation and much
more.
• Export data - Understand the unique data generated from each batch, and use
the information to compare techniques and taste, and increase you
understanding of whats going on.

How PLAATO works
Plaato measures continously the flow of CO2 from the fermenter, and knows at any
time the total amount of CO2 that has been generated by the fermentation.
Since the fermentation process generates equal amount of CO2 and ethanol, Plaato
can use this data to estimate the Specific Gravity (SG), alcohol percentage and
quantify the fermentation activity.

Ratings and reviews

Great app, I just wish I could modify the value in the BPM graph, I don't ever think I'll hit 133 or even 800, I'd also love to see a pinch zoom in or zoom out on the chart. Another idea is to set temps and if it goes above or below the temp set you get a notification. After further use I'd also like to see previous brews without having to email a csv to myself, as in get the charts and data all in the app

I think it's great the app includes standard gravity measurements now instead of the lesser used Oe units, but it's still lacking two features: 1) The ability to reset a Plaato unit through the app. Having to unplug the unit, dump the water, disconnect the base, invert the container, and plug it into the sensor for a reset is a pain and runs the risk of contaminating whatever is currently fermenting. 2) Linking a data set exported to csv to a current fermentation. I've had to reset my Plaato mid fermentation and although I exported the data before hand the reset views it as an entirely new batch.

Updating the previous review. The product support and app support is hopeless. This app is not updated since 9 months and it is very rudimentary. The graphs are very clumsy and hard to read. For my setup, bubbles were varying from 0-100. But the scale is fixed from 0-800. Can't store a particular fermentation history. It only has stop/start button.
