    YABC-Yet a Brew Controller: BrewManiacEx

    That might have something to do with OneWire library. I tried default OneWire library of ESP32 framework and found that my sensor didn't work with that. You can try copying "OneWire-master" folder in "lib-esp32" to "lib-esp8266" folder to rebuild the image. This faithful library has worked well.

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    Probably it's a hardware issue, bad wiring or dying OLED display. The software would never write illegal characters.

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    A picture of your display might help. The most important new features, as I remember, are Rotating LCD for extra information, like iSpiondel information, Humidity, and pressure. New 'Write on buffer full' option for logging to reduce flash writing. If you don't need the additional...

    Open fermentation experiment

    THE BRÜ LAB podcast Episode 041 | Pressurized Fermentation w/ Dr. Andrew Macintosh might answer your question.

    Belgian yeast experiences (WLP 530, 545, 550, etc)

    Yeah, I am going to push the upper bound up to 80+F degree next time. One other option is pitching additional yeast, like https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/pink-elephant-delirium-tremens-clone.112957/

    Belgian yeast experiences (WLP 530, 545, 550, etc)

    A few brews with WLP530, dubbels and quads. IMO, it does a good job for those styles by balance of esters and phenols. It pairs well with dark fruit flavor, ie. special B. I tried WLP570 once in my first year of homebrewing. I don't remember what it tasted like, though. However, the golden...

    The dreaded grain mill issues thread

    Reverse the rollers, widen the gap, and/or condition the grain. These are what I learned from this forum.

    Automated Bottling system

    I've tried reading resistance by an Arduino. It would work, even with foam. However, I didn't adapt this method but designed and implemented another filling system based on a digital scale and a servo motor because I didn't want extra things touching my beer. However, I ditched it because...

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    You can still input the gravity manually when you don't use gravity devices.

    NO. It's more convenient for me to just have gravity axis.

    YABC-Yet a Brew Controller: BrewManiacEx

    No. It's difficult to view 'recipes' on the tiny LCD display, so I opted to not implement this function. Viewing and select 'recipes' are easy and fun by web interface, isn't it?

    Pilsener only at 1.02 after 4 weeks

    Have you done any Fast Ferment Test ? You will know at least the fermentability of your wort.

    YABC-Yet a Brew Controller: BrewManiacEx

    Because I just tried building ESP32 version. You can just add the following code into pins.h around line 25. #if EnableLevelSensor #define LevelSensorPin 19 #endif

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    It's a function that I don't use, but It seems to work for me. Are you accessing it on your phone? I think it's something related to HTML layout.

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    I just retired my 5-years-old ESP8266 controller and "upgraded" to an ESP32 one. Having the rotary encoder is nice, but I found ESP32 isn't as stable as ESP8266. Maybe the libraries or framework of ESP32 is not as stable as those of ESP8266. My first fermentation seems fine, but the second...

    iSpindle - DIY Electronic Hydrometer

    I wonder if it possible to fit iSpindel into RAPT pill's housing, which is roughly 37mm x 125mm. What I hate most is the cap of the PET tube. BTW, I updated the calibration HTML for saving/loading calibration data. You can get it here: BrewPiLess/calibrationSG.htm at master · vitotai/BrewPiLess

    Long time of carbonation after bottling.. Why?

    Most of my beers seem to be carbonated within a week, except one. I had a few double primed bottles by mistake. They all exploded in 3 days, usually in the second day. However, the carbonated beers within one week tend have a sour tang, which might be caused by acetaldehyde. The only exception...
