I ended up purchasing the case and power plugs that I linked to. It made for a nice, neat installation without requiring any drilling for the plugs. I did have to cut a hole for the external heat sink off the SSR for the heater. You could easily get away with one of the smaller cases from the...

If you haven't desoldered or don't have spare DS18B20's, the GravityMon firmware will let you use the gyroscope temperature instead.

I fried my microSD card, so installed Fermentrack on a new one. I'm running into an issue with the adding a new temp controller process. I have BrewPi 0.2.4 revision 0.15 installed on an ESP32-S2. It was working perfectly previously. However, when I try to add the controller now I get an error...

Alright, ordering some V3s, and then get to do everybody's favorite activity: desoldering! Bah humbug.

Huh, okay, so there's another reason why it wasn't working. Thanks!

I soldered up an iSpindel using a Lolin D1 Mini V4. One of the steps for iSpindel assembly is removing a diode that results in 5V going to VCC (e.g., iSpindel Assembly - Open Source Distilling). However, I'd read online that V4 removed the diode from 5V to VBUS, and had assumed that diode was...

I'm trying to configure an iSpindel with GravityMon 1.3 to cooperate with Spindelmate without success. iSpindel --> Spindelmate setup details at: iSPINDEL support for SPINDELMATE – iBLOPPER – iot fermentation logger! Two questions: 1.) Is the Device Name in the GravityMon configuration the same...

So an update on this. Not surprisingly, the issue was that I'm bad at wiring. I had the NO and COM wires switched in the relay. Takeaway is don't try to troubleshoot things when you're frustrated. I swear I looked at it a million times when I couldn't get the cooling to kick on. Didn't brew for...

Yep, ordered a D1 Mini Pro to do this. I was hoping that I'd be able to use the iSpindHub as a relay so I'd be able to leave my Pi on my main network, instead of switching it to the repeater AP.

Yep, you can send data from the iSpindel direct to Fermentrack. I'm having the issue of getting the signal direct out of SS fermenters, and was hoping to be able to use iSpindHub as a signal booster to send the data to Fermentrack, similarly to how it can send data to BrewFather.

Is there any chance of adding the ability to push data from iSpindHub to Fermentrack in the future?

Will a TiltBridge capture iSpindel data? I assumed not.

Fair question. The mini-fridge is cooled via an Inkbird ITC-308, with the probe placed in the glycol/water mix, and the fridge power cord hooked up to the cooling side of the Inkbird. Verified temperature using a separate thermometer, so it's cooling properly, and the pumps run. Based on this...

I'm having an odd issue where BrewPi isn't kicking on cooling, but goes straight to idling. I have them it up properly, but this is the first time actually using them to ferment a beer. I say properly, I tested heating and cooling using a light, and the light turned on appropriately when heating...

Is there a way for Fermentrack to capture iSpindel data from an iSpindHub repeater? I currently have my iSpindels connected to Fermentrack, and am having the well-known issue of not getting data out of SS fermenters. I know it supports TiltBridge, so wasn't sure if there was an iSpindel...

In case anyone comes across this later, BrewFlasher actually successfully flashed the GravityMon firmware to the ESP when I was getting this error. Over my head, but how the S2 operates via USB is different than ESP8266, and as a result BrewFlasher can't properly end the flash program. Ended up...

I'm trying to flash GravityMon 1.3 beta on an ESP 32 S2, and am struggling to get it to flash. I've had no issues with ESP8266 or ESP32 C3 V2. I've followed the BrewFlasher instructions for the S2 to set it to flash manually: hold "0", hit the RST button, then release "0". I'm pretty sure it's...

I have a weird issue that I'm hoping someone can give me some pointers about. I've soldered up 2 Jeffrey 2.69 PCBs with Lolin ESP32 C3 V2.1 minis. One works fine, the other one not so much. Successfully flashed, but it won't open the "GravityMon" AP point using the GravityMon 1.2 firmware on...

Just a heads-up if anyone runs into the same issue I was having: check your relay. I tore my wiring apart over and over again (after correcting the issues day_trippr pointed out above), and thought I was losing my mind because it *should* have worked. The LED would turn on, but no actual...

I'm looking to wire a 110V 15a eBIAB CraftBeerPi setup. I've read the GitHub documentation for installing CBP on the Pi, but had a couple of wiring questions: 1.) After reading through the monster CraftBeerPi HBT thread and watching a couple of YouTube videos, a couple folks suggested using a...
