    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    Hey guys, sorry again for delays in response. Unfortunately the MacOS I used to dev the iOS app is now too old for required development version for Apple app store. I couldn't justify buying a newer Mac just to support this. Ultimately, I would like to re-write the application as a web app (much...

    TiltBridge - Tilt-to-WiFi Device for Tilt Hydrometer

    @bloombrews sorry for the delayed response, been really busy lately! The QR code is generated by the tiltbridge UI and the Android app parses the GUID from it and adds it to your account. If the QR code isn't showing up, I would agree with @Thorrak that perhaps you have an issue with the...

    TiltBridge - Tilt-to-WiFi Device for Tilt Hydrometer

    Yeah you'll probably need to update firmware, then the device will automatically register with the cloud. Regarding app availability, the politics and complexity around publishing an app to google play or apple app store is crazy. I swear I understand my taxes more....

    TiltBridge - Tilt-to-WiFi Device for Tilt Hydrometer

    Hello Tiltbridge family! I'm getting brewing again after a year hiatus with a move and family, etc... I fired my tiltbridge up and realized I never finished the mobile app dev for a native tiltbrigde cloud solution. I whipped up tiltbridge.web.app. Here you can create an account, add your...

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    Hey @Merkur sorry for the delay. Life has been really busy with kids and moving, so I really haven't been able to commit the time to this project. Regarding your question about the CO2 pressure low, you should be able to adjust the "Low Pressure Alarm" setpoint (and make sure it's enabled) from...

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    10mm seems a bit higher than normal. I usually see only a couple mm. That being said, it just depends on how accurate you want it to be. At the end of the day, even an error of 10mm distance is probably less than a pint. Need to do some pi r squared to determine the exact volume error that would...

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    @Merkur glad it's working, and thanks for providing feedback! Let me know if you have any questions regarding assembling the sensors, that is the trickiest part. I've tried to make the DIY as clear as possible. Cheers!

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    It's definitely the wrong display. If you do a search for it using the description, there may be multiple types of displays that fit that criteria. Make sure the dimensions and header pins match the breakout board. I have updated the DIY to reflect this note. I apologize if the DIY was not more...

    Thanks for supporting the community Mikey!

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    The display only updates as often as the sensor update interval. It averages the readings between that interval for better stability. You can shorten it, but I don't think you can go any faster than every 10 seconds.

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    Paul, Regarding the cloud update interval, this is hard coded at 1 hour in the firmware to avoid storing too much data or updating too often and running cloud service costs through the roof. Looking at your screenshot of the configuration, there is an issue with your calibration. The high...

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    Glad to hear you are interested in this solution @Jopher! Unfortunately, I don't really have the time right now to offer different libraries for different combinations of available sensors. That being said, you can implement an alternative I2C temp sensor with no changes to wiring, just...

    Flite - Keg Level, Temperature, and Pressure Sensor

    They are really cheap enough, so a 1:1 model seems to work out for most, and it adds unlimited scalability without dependency on yours truly. You can download the firmware with Brewflasher (thanks @Thorrak!) and you are ready to configure. No limit on the number of Flite controllers you want to...
