    Native ESP8266 BrewPi Firmware - WiFi BrewPi, no Arduino needed!

    You do not need a custom build for Glycol, just set the cooling delays very short as the Wiki says.

    I configured the Gycol Chiller as one more fermenter set to -5 C . The other Frementers control each individual solenoid valve and a Group Actuator join them to control the pump.

    3.5"is way to small. 10"is bare minimum for something useful. You can control temp for as many vessels as you want, but only have one steps execution thread.

    May be the SSR is overheating.

    It will in deed. and have feedback leds in 4 outpus

    Yes that image ir wrong in the top line. Just the relay an diode goes to 12v. And for an ssr you can spare the diode also. Just put the resistor and the transistor. If you gone use several outputs is easier to use a ULN2003 or ULN2803. These are 7 or 8 transistors with the cirresponding R in...

    May be the pullup is no t ok. use a 3k3 ohms pull up for stronger current

    i use iSpindle, but must be similar. Each value ( angle, temp , gravity ) is defined as a sensor, so you must look into that sensor chart

    Taking into account the inertia of a 50L vessel PWM with a 50 o 100sec period is doable.

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    It is weir that in the github repo the last release is V2.3.3 from Oct 17 while in the bins there are from 2.6 to 3.5 ????

    Do not hesitate to extend the warranty 30 days. It is free

    The blue wire should go to the - side of the ssr output.

    What voltage are your Relays? They switch to ground? Her is an schematic of how could be done.

    Looks like data interference. It happent to me . But junps can be any 2^n values . 1024 , 256 or so. Any source of inerference near the wires? Pwm cables or motor variators are the worst.

    That valve is not solenoid but motorized. It is complex to drive. The plug in can be used to fill the mash. Use a mash step with 0 time after reaching the value and use the flowmeter as temp for the step.

    On and off offset need to be diferent. Leave on in 0 and off in 1.

    If you use the standar one wire plugin the temps are read every 5 sec, that is more than good for fermentation. The kernel takes ~1 sec to read each sensor in the bus. If you have many sensors as I do is best to change te time to 15s. In 50L pots the temp dont change that fast. Less on a 60L...

    RasperyPi do not have analog GPIO. That's why the board is needed. You can try a 100 ohms R instead of the probe. Will give you some temp near 0 C
