    Technological Support and After-sales Service for Inkbird WIFI Thermostat

    I Bought one and can not get it to connect to wifi. It does the finding devices and then goes to configuring Wi-Fi and then times out after awhile. Is this actually working?

    SF Bay area welder for kettle tc ferrule

    I found someone a bit closer that seems capable. He said he could make 2 holes and attach 2 ferrules for $100. Seems reasonably priced but idk. He says he used to make sanitary welds for stainless baking equipment. If it he can't I'll let you know. I really like the idea of using straight...

    DIY Glycol Chiller

    That's cool looks good I'm building one out of an ac unit. Since you have the background maybe you can answer my question, my ac unit has an electronic thermostat.

    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    Any reason you didn't use the copper condensers or a larger diameter? Seems like it might take up a large amount of space.

    CraftBeerPi - Raspberry Pi Software

    I ended up clearing the cbpi database and starting over and moving from pins 22,27 to 7,8. Doing this i got all 5 to show up. The software is very buggy with this as I tried the same wired setup before I cleared the database and nothing showed up.
