    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    It hasn't fluctuated like that since I re-flashed the firmware and rebooted Days: 0, Hours: 13, Minutes: 12, Seconds: 14 If I remember correctly, all 3 of the sensors were fluctuating. But I was noticing the one having larger fluctuations. I'll keep an eye on it and report back if it starts up...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    About Keg Cop: v1.1.1-Beta.3 [feature_86] (97fed93) Which is @Thorrak's version - Keg Cop Alpha (Thorrak) in BrewFlasher Not his "Try This" version.

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    My temps started fluctuating crazy again. The keg temp going from 108F to 31F in one fell swoop. Then changing by 2-3 F up from 31 a few times. Then from 36 to 43 in one single change. Then back to 30F in a single change. Wasn't there a buffer range that it averaged the temps over each X...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    I just noticed that the temps were going crazy. Could this be because of a still flakey temp sensor connection or maybe a failing temp sensor? I don't think so because more than one temp sensor was fluctuating. Or, I suppose if it was only the Keg temp sensor, maybe the scale just made it look...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    I used the "trythis" Alpha firmware and it seems to be working OK. I've gone through all the settings, navigated a lot of page changes, changed settings, went to the "About" page, refreshed, refreshed and refreshed the pages some more, and back and forth etc.etc.etc. No crashes yet after 30...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    I just checked the GUI and found that my Keg temp sensor dropped down to the -196.6 number. It was working just fine for hours. This has to be a poor connection problem of the 1-wire sensor, right? Or is there something else I should/can check? But the uptime is good - Uptime:Days: 0, Hours: 6...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    No actual mesh WiFi system, but I do have 2 Ubiquiti APs. The Kegerator is really close to one of them and Keg Cop would never even try to connect to the other and verified by looking at the WiFi logs. Also verified that the ESP32 is not dropping the WiFi connection (other than when it...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Thanks. I just installed your new version and will give a test today. EDIT - After 40 minutes of navigating around and making config changes it's still running. It wouldn't have done that before. I'll keep doing the same and follow up again later today.

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Your version is super-stable, @Thorrak - but missing the feature Lee added for tower temp control/solenoid. The web-page loads are very quick. I don't know what "targets" are. I tested out the config pretty thorough and found with no taps configured, the Tower fan control not enabled and just...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Not easily. The controller is not readily accessible now that it's in a box and running the Kegerator. But I'll see if I can get to it some time this week. It's a busy week at work until Friday. Thanks - I am willing to try anything at this point.

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Just before, during and after a reboot, this is what Wireshark sees - Starting at about line 1474 until about line 1491 is when it's crashed/rebooted. The MDNS lines or around there. https://zerobin.net/?0a8321e2e503bee0#LUUI2gEbkWRb0mjMTMPZZtF6OGUMQLp2EsRYon+Rnzs= I also telnetted to the...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    I get crashes/reboots when I'm using my Android phone and either the Chrome or Brave browser. I've used both IP address and MDNS for URLS for Keg Cop and get the same results. My DNS is local (Pi-Hole). There is no reason any of the traffic from my PC or phone should go near the Firewall since...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Page refresh - at some point, the temperatures stop automatically updating in the browser. I notice this when going to other tabs and later coming back to the KegCop tab. This is when I manually refresh the page, and that's seems to be when the ESP32 reboots. But it seems like it's hung up...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    This thread, being185 pages long - I did a search but didn't see an answer. If I have one BruControl setup on my main PC in the office of my house, but brew in the garage and have the Kegerator is in the basement, will everything be able to be controlled from the one PC that BruControl is...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    I'm getting more reboots - it seems to happen when I refresh the browser window. It also happens when I only have one tab open to the KegCop GUI. When I save settings, it frequently reboots and I lose my settings again. Then all my settings are lost and I have to re-configure everything...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    This has happened a couple more times. Didn't realize I had another tab open to KegCop. At least that's what it appears to have happened. Is there a way to get around this? I've not had this happen with CraftbeerPi before. Are there plans for taking backups and being able to restore them...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    I just tonight got my Kegerator running on Keg Cop. The flow meter is connected, but not calibrated yet because the temps are too high and I'm getting a lot of foam. Going to wait until the temps are at normal ranges before calibrating. So far, things seem to be running good. Before I shut...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    After a little more testing, I'm wondering if the temperature offsets are working. My temp sensors drifted apart after the initial power-up. I have the 3 sensors in a single glass of water which is at 72.5F. KegCop is displaying them at 73.4, 72.5, 70.5. I set the offset of sensor 1 to -.9 and...
