From the 'because I can' category of reasons to do something:
I installed flow meters on my beer lines in my keezer, which connect to the keezer temperature controller, which reports back to my home automation server. From any internet-connected computer, I can now see my current keezer temperature and the amount of beer remaining in each keg.
Once I figure out node-red I should get a tweet whenever a keg is getting low or someone pulls a beer while I'm not there. (http://)

Cool stuff!

It will be interesting to see the accuracy of the flow meters. Have you gone through an entire keg with them yet?

This is awesome! I looked into a project like this once, but realized I was in wayyy over my head

I haven't nailed down the accuracy yet; I'm measuring pints as they get poured.
