This firmware supports Nextion Touchdisplay HMI TFT 3.5" NX4832T035 (basic series), NX4832K035 (enhanced series) an NX4832F035 (discovery series). Three pages are availible:

Mode BrewPage: max 4 CBPi kettles overview

Mode KettlePage: current and target temperature

Attention: you must enter sensors IDs from CraftbeerPi4 in the sensor configuration page. Otherwise displayed tempertures may be wrong or mixed up between different sensors.

InductionPage: manual induction hob controller

BrewPage is usefull while brewing. When your mash process completed the use of BrewPage (overview) ends. The Kettlepage can be used any time as a kettle temperature information pannel.
