That's great. I'm using Stretch so no problem. Out of interest, does it use a simple timeout mechanism?

I've set up Fermentrack for a family member and now need to move the Pi etc to his place on a different wifi network is there an easy way to do this eg set up a secondary wifi network within Fermentrack/Raspbian or do I have to re-install Fermentrack again at his place?

The book suggests a small room humidifier with simple mains on/off control so likely to be limited control but the humidity sensors also have limited accuracy.

One of the 'big' and different food books published this year is The Noma Guide to Fermentation, from the previously no 1 world rated restaurant, which updates some of the techniques for fermentation. The book includes a couple of diy fermentation chambers mainly operated using an inkbird or...

Thanks DT, that helps. The home brewery is in a cool well ventilated out-building in west Scotland and rarely sees temperatures above 20C (68F).

You'll have to bear with me, I'm not a home brewer but setting it up for a friend who is. It's probably simple stuff but I suppose I'm a little nervous making changes just in case I mess up the software. What is Fridge Constant Mode? What is Fridge Setting measuring and why is this is this...

Thanks, tried that but message says unable to reach brew-pi script. My gut feeling is that despite the flash info suggesting that the flash of the Wemos was ok when it isn't and there's no wifi connection to the router. I'll try to set it up as a serial connection. What esp8266 boards are...

Sorry, I've looked through the Fermentrack screens and can't find anything that looks like Reset button. Apologies if I'm missing something obvious.

Hi, I've been following the other large thread and this for a while now and finally taken the plunge. I bought some of the RJ11 boards and gathered other bits and pieces together but am having a problem flashing a Wemos D1 Mini as a controller. The process seems to go ok, (Pi and Wemos both...
