Ahh, didn't get that the beer temp sensor would be the one in the iSpindel. Morfeus You can connect a beer temp sensor (via a thermowell) directly to a brewpiless. I ran an iSpindel at 300 second intervals for a month and the battery didn't run out.

This is a solved problem, there are a few different solutions, https://github.com/vitotai/BrewPiLess is very good, it can receive iSpindel data and includes gravity on the fermentation temp chart.

Wow, that's cool. I've just run one for 22 days reporting every 5 mins without any battery problems, it was still going when I turned it off.

I've noticed similar behaviour. I now only consider the parts of the chart where temperature is stable. Here's an example where a cold crash went from 20ºC to 12ºC, fermentation was finished and gravity stable (confirmed with a hydrometer) yet iSpindel shows it dropping (in line with the...

Will do once my current brew is done.

I created a fairly detailed issue about iSpindel not working with BPL with videos demonstrating what happens in the different versions, hopefully it will lead to a fix. https://github.com/universam1/iSpindel/issues/102

So I've just spent 3 hours trying to get iSpindel to work with BPL, I've flashed many different versions of each. curl works but for whatever reason the iSpindel POST request doesn't. Then I saw this Damn, once I flashed with that file it worked. What's really annoying is that it was...

I think I used the spreadsheet, hadn't seen the online tool. I'll use the values from that for my next batch. Thanks

This is the data I noted 1.072 68.16 17.5 1.06 64.17 14.7 1.04 56.13 10 1.03 49.31 7.6 1.02 37.85 5.1 1.01 26.37 2.6 Looking at it now, the 13-2 range I'm seeing looks like plato.

I did the easy calibration and got this from the spreadsheet. The iSpindel calculates the gravity I think.

I don't understand which csv file you mean?

I'm getting weird numbers out, in the range of 13-2, at least that's what is showing on brewpiless (the gravity scale does't seem to relate to the numbers on the graph either). I figured I'd come back to it as I didn't want to mess around with a brew but as time went on I realised the actual...

I've had that before, pretty sure I read that if you catch the first byte mid character you get gobbledygook. Press reset on the side of the wemos a few times and all should be good, if not try again a few times.

Good advice from pocketmon. If you've got a commandline try `pio serialports monitor -b 115200` while connected via usb to get the serial output (you'll be able to see all the debug info). `pio` is a python library from http://platformio.org/

Thanks, I'll look that up. I did specifically get a d1 mini pro so I could attach an external antenna if necessary, turning the resistor looks tricky though.
