Has anyone experienced an issue of the automatic or semi-automatic installation scripts hanging up at building wheel for numpy? I reformatted my microSD and re-loaded Buster following the preparing a Pi guidelines in the installation instructions, and now cannot get Fermentrack to install. I...

I was quoting the Canakit Amazon starter kit price. I know the board's $10, but there's nowhere in Mid-MO to buy one.

Came to my senses and installed RPints on a separate microSD card. I only need RPints up and running for guests when we host, which isn't often enough to justify another Pi. Not when there's other gear calling my name, anyway.

Came to my senses and installed RPints on a separate microSD. It'll be easy enough to flip over the SD card, I only need the RPints for when we host, which isn't often enough to spend $30 on a Zero W kit.

Mostly to see if i could get it to work. Fermentrack is the main point of having the Pi for me, but Raspberry Pints is pretty cool too, so i wanted to see if i could run both without needing a second Pi.

Can anyone help guide a borderline tech-illiterate through setting up Fermentrack and RaspberryPints on the same Pi 3B running Buster? I can get Fermentrack up and running no problem on a fresh SD card, however, when I try to install Fermentrack after RaspberryPints, it doesn't successfully...

Has anyone had success using a coaxial cable to get an iSpindel signal out of a stainless steel fermenter? There's a description of it here in this German homebrewer forum: Google Translate I've seen a couple posts mention it, but no one else reporting results of trying it.

I was asking about the effect of pulling the circuit board out of the petling on the accuracy of readings a couple days ago. After reading the issues section of the iSpindel GitHub, someone in a calibration post had a simple suggestion for dealing with the issue: take a screwdriver or other...

@Thorrak : Apologies for not being clear in my original post. By "config", I was referring to the iSpindel setup, where you pull the PCB out and initiate the configuration mode by hitting the ESP8266 reset button a couple of times, assuming you had the PCB in the petling. None of what I'm...

Two questions for folks: 1.) Is removing the PCB after calibration a problem? I'm calibrating using Fermentrack, set for 60s intervals. Once i get the polynomial equation, I have to pull the PCB out to enable config mode, to switch the internal to 15 minutes, and data collection source as...

I thought I remembered it being suggested as a chelating agent. Re-reading the beginning of this thread, I'll go snag some 7th Gen instead.

I've used the 73/23/3 OxiClean Free/TSP90/citric acid ratio. It works quite well, but does leave a filmy residue that is a pain to get off. Before trying to scroll through this beast of a thread, does anyone have a suggestion for a ratio or ingredients that don't leave a film?

Does anyone happen to have a single PCB they'd be willing to sell me? I don't need 5/10 from PCBWay. Something fritzed out with my D1, and in the process of trying to desolder the D1 to remove it and put a new one on, I managed to burn through the soldering cup and expose some of the internal...

I'm trying to set up my Arduino BrewPi running Fermentrack, and am running into a snag. I have Fermentrack running just fine on a Pi 3B, and have an ESP8266 BrewPi running great through it. After flashing the Uno R3 with the latest BrewPi Remix, the Arduino boots up. However, unlike the ESP8266...

Update on my ESP8266 temp probe issues from above: After getting probes recommended by day_trippr, I soldered them up to the 3.5mm jacks, plugged 'em in, and nothing, just like before. I hacked off the microphone jacks and ran the probe wire straight onto the terminal block, and they popped...

Does anyone have any suggestions for cool, non-standard brewing uses for an ESP8266 D1 Mini? I have two iSpindels and a ESP8266 BrewPi controller running Fermentrack, so I'm set on what seem to be the standard applications. I was hoping to use it as a WiFi repeater, so that I could set it on my...

That's twice you've helped me out on this project!

I've been trying to get a BrewPi setup going, but the DS18B20 temperature sensors I ordered crapped out on me. Does anyone have a suggestion for a good source for normal-powered (non-parasitic) DS18B20s? If you've had good luck with the cheaper ones through Amazon, that'd be great. They both...

Second this. The only issue I've ever had with mine was user error. On my eBIAB system, my false bottom wasn't high enough above my element, so where the bag was touching the false bottom basically got a couple of little pinholes burned in it. Fixed that issue, fiancee sewed the holes up and...

J/k on above updates. I'm now 95% sure that the issue with the probes disappearing from Fermentrack is the probes themselves. I have completely taken the entire setup multiple times and can't see anything wrong. ESP8266 boots up just fine, cooling and heating pins are detected in Fermentrack...
