I have been using my brewpi setup for over a year and never had major issues. Last month we moved to a different house with a different internet provider. It's been a long time since I had to set up the brewpi and now I'm stuck to get the port forwarding bit working again.
In my local network...
yeah, I'm a bit pissed that I did not make a backup when I got everything working.. It took me 2 days to get everything running with the tilt hydrometer etc... Lucky for me, I copied the brewpi directory to a USB stick when I was setting everything up, so at least I still have the config files...
Like mentioned above, my SD card is dead after a reboot. Probably at that point some files might already been affected.. Explaining why something "changed" without my input
I found the problem :(
After a reboot, the pi completely stopped working, apparently the SD card crashed... Worst that could happen.. Lucky for me I'm already cooling the beer so I don't need the control anymore.
When I get home this evening, that's the first thing I will try as well. Just see if rebooting the Raspberry will help. Otherwise I will need to check what's going on.
The IP address of my modem/router did not change (that's also the first thing I was thinking).
And why would the port forwarding would be blocked now and not before?
What do you mean by this? In the settings of my modem, I added the fixed IP address of my Raspberry Pi with ports 79 to 80...
Should he still be blocking this when I turn of the firewall? I'm currently not at home so I can't test that much. I tried turning of the firewall of my modem and still no access.
The strange thing is that I have used brewpi for several brews, and now it's been running for the past 2 weeks...
Today I wanted to check my brewpi from work and now (after more than 2 weeks of logging), I get a webpage which says:
403 Forbidden

Any idea why this is the...
It calmed down for 1 cycle, now it's back to the heating - cooling cycling again.. There are 2 things I could try, 1 is to put the fridge probe under the plate (in the zone where the resistors are). So It will feel the heat much quicker. See what that would do (off course the PIDs will need to...
These are the ones in my setup: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/One-Piece-SAIP-DJR-50W-Industrial-Ohmic-Resistance-Heater-For-Cabinet-Use-with-Three-Size-Choice/32411750435.html?spm=2114.13010608.0.0.35jsDl&detailNewVersion=&categoryId=200001565
The plate itself is custom CNC-milled by me (out...
I'm using 2 50 watt resistors that are mounted on a panel under the CCT (see photo). Next to these elements, 2 fans are mounted, one pointing up, the other pointing down (in order to force a flow of air going around). The probe is mounted on the sidewall somewhere half way up.
Today I...
The thing that bothers me is the fact that the heating is followed by 2 cooling cycles each time. This tells me that he is countering his own "mistake" of heating it too much, something often seen with simple TC controllers. In this case I would expect it to heat it and then let it cool down on...
The thing I don't understand is why the brewpi does not correct for this overshoot. It's heating for 8 minutes, resulting in an overshoot of more than 1 degree (fridge temperature). On other parts in the graph, it's only heating for 4 minutes, with no overshoot (but that's 1 out of 10 peaks that...
I'm fermenting my beer for the first time in my new setup (large fridge with 50l CCT, heated with 2x50watt resistors). If you look at my graph, does it seem that the heating elements might be a bit overpowered? (zoomed in on 2 parts)
It's been running for almost a week now, so the PID's are...
