One of my hobbies is brewing beer, check out how one engineer made a simple control system to automate some of the process:
A MSP430 Double-Kettle Electronic Brewing System

Dave brews beer at home on a stove, but waiting and standing for
water to boil takes most time and fun out of it. He came up with an
improved automated system with an electric brewing system. A MSP430
Launchpad commands solid state relays which control 5500W heating
elements which significantly reduces boiling time to 15 minutes for 5
gallons.
A zip file on
his Element14 blog post has schematics, BOMs and documentation.
