Hi,
I'm a bit new to this stuff, so please go easy on me
I'm making a cold-brewer for coffee to go in my fridge. The plan is to essentially hook up a milk frother (it's kinda like a low-powered hand mixer) to a switch that turns it on intermittently—giving the grounds/water a good 3-4 second stir—every hour or so. What I'm looking for is a way to make a circuit that acts like a blinker, but is tunable to allow things like a four second power-on every hour. It doesn't have to be precisely timed, just get reasonably close, so it can stir my coffee
I'm probably missing something obvious, but every way I googled it, I just came up with car turn signal or windshield wiper repair how-tos :-/
Thanks!
