Has anyone had any issues with the silicone seal on the lid coming off? I went to take the lid off in order oxygenate and pitch the yeast, and the seal came off and fell into the wort!! I fished it out, re-sanitized everything and carried on, but now I'm concerned that it will happen again when...

Looks good!!:rockin: I did something similar with the stopper, I just used a blowoff tube going down to a yeast collector. What did you use to drill the hole for the sample port, and what weldless adapter did you use?

Thanks for the update. Admin / Mods, please lock this thread.

Just finished my Two Hearted Ale clone, and the Tilt performed flawlessly with my RPi code, very happy with the result.:mug:

Just kegged my first brew, a Two Hearted Ale clone, using the Catalyst. A few thoughts: I do "no-chill" so basically I just dumped the hot wort (about 170F / 77C) directly into the Catalyst and moved it to my fermentation chamber with no ill effects. Next day I removed the trub in the...

I use rubber gloves, gives me a little more traction.

In my Raspberry Pi PHP code, I use a query to get the first gravity reading: $sql = "select abv from device"; $rowVal = mysqli_query($link, $sql); echo "rows = ",mysqli_num_rows($rowVal)."\n"; if(mysqli_num_rows($rowVal) > 0) { $firstRow = FALSE; $sql = "select sg from device order...

Found it :mug:

Way back in the early part of this thread, there was described a way to read the battery level using bluetooth tools in linux. The downside to the method seems to be excessive battery drain, killing the battery in a week or so. Feel free to peruse the thread for the info.

I sent an e-mail concerning this on 1/29/2017, no response so far...

Is it possible to order just the lid and silicone seal? I'd like to try adding a stainless steel thermowell to the lid, but I want to have an extra just in case things go awry.

Just oxygenated and pitched yeast, and sanitized and dropped in my Tilt Hydrometer. The Tilt's reading 1.078 while my eDrometer showed 1.086. Not too worried though, I only use the tilt to track progress.

For now, I took a #10.5 rubber stopper and bored two holes into the stopper, one for the thermowell, and one for the blowoff, looks like it will work. I also do "no-chill", so after whirlpooling the wort for 45 min, I dumped the hot (about 165F / 74C) wort directly into the Catalyst, and...

Nicely Done!! :rockin::rockin:

Define "inexpensive"

The Tilt simply broadcasts data via BLE advertisements. You need another device that receives and stores the data.
