    iSpindle - DIY Electronic Hydrometer

    Mine has an external antenna, there is a D1 mini PRO inside. It would be a lot simpler to use that to build a repeater with external antenna imo.

    What I did for beer today

    Bottled it today, brewday was last monday, in 2 days fermentation done, added dryhop for 3 days and bottled today. From brewing to bottling in 5 days, that Kveik yeast is amazing. It already tastes good, a little to bitter but that will fade away as the beer matures.(and for those that think...

    The firmware of the iSpindel is designed for the D1 mini, please correct me if I am wrong. I know it also works with the D1 Pro(see opensourcedistilling) and it might work with other boards but you can't count on that.

    I didn't build one but I did buy one overhere: http://www.nautilis.eu/en/portfolio-item/nautilis-ispindel-relay/ Because my fermentation chamber is an old fridge standing in my shed at the end of the garden 50 feet from the back of my house with armed concrete walls with the central router at...

    iSpindle - DIY Electronic Hydrometer

    You have the right one and it seems to operate in the right manner like switching it off when it gets down to 2.5V. However, there seems to be no solder at all at B- that could be a problem. It honors your mate that he soldered this together "the old way". Nowadays there are more elegant...

    iSpindle - DIY Electronic Hydrometer

    The battery in the iSpindel doesn't just die. At, I think, 3.2V it starts reporting every hour instead of what is set if that is below an hour. At 2.5V the iSpindel puts itself off. So if your battery just dies, there's probably something wrong with the TP4056, that is the part the battery is...

    iSpindle - DIY Electronic Hydrometer

    You think so? You also need a relatively expensive 3D printed sled. Regarding that the design of @Open Source Distilling is much more elegant, just a custom pcb, some parts a battery and a tube. And no lose wires, the battery is in a holder soldered to the PCB.

    iSpindle - DIY Electronic Hydrometer

    @Tom4c I have to nuance my findings a bit. I ordered 10 gy=521 at a store on aliexpress(US $5.4 |10PS X GY 521 MPU 6050 MPU6050 Module 3 Axis gyro sensors+ 3 Axis Accelerometer Module|Integrated Circuits| - AliExpress) where I bought before with the orange block, but now with the black block...

    Which boards did you use? Picture maybe? Because there are different setups with different kind of iSpindel PCB's.

    Version 6.5.0 of the firmware should fix this.

    iSpindle - DIY Electronic Hydrometer

    Yes those are the real deal, I build 20 iSpindels with those and they all work. See also LOLIN D1 mini — WEMOS documentation What I notices with the gyro boards is that the ones on the left with the orangy/yellowy block are working all fine, the other ones with the black block on the right 3...
