Back when I was brewing beer still, I used Python with GPIO on a Raspberry Pi to read Bluetooth off of a bluetooth hydrometer with thermometer, and then manage temperature of fermenting beer with a heat wrap and a home-made water chiller in a mini fridge.

The code wasn’t very elegant, but it got the job done.

If you ask me the same question regarding Perl, C, or coldfusion, I will have good stories there as well.
