OH CRAP!.... I was looking forward to another Toy to play with.. So, just run this setup without the screen after setup? I don't want to be a Pain in the Azz, posting my problems here, when I finally take a stab at it, and it does not work....

@Thorrak and @LBussy , go read this thread post on the Kegland Rapt Pill floating hydrometer temperature monitor post number #178 just last night. I never used my sight glasses in combination with the floating hydrometers, so this may work?

Thanks so much @natmartin ! I knew there had to be a "solution". I do have sight glasses I used on my older Ss "Chronical" tanks, but not with the newer Unitanks (due to the low to ground bottom. I will put an Ellbow on the bottom dump port and try this out. Clerification - "half-baked" are...

My local cable company is installing a MESH WiFi network tomorrow and I plan on putting one unit in the brewery. Not sure if this will help, but at least my RPi's will be happier. Its a big house with cement and tile floors (all radiant floor heat), so it is terrible getting good communication...

I knew my sentence would be misinterpreted! I did not mean the the Tiltbridge is "half-baked". I was saying that all the "work-arounds" seem to be excessive, when the actual "problem" could be fixed with a much better transmitter built into the floating hydrometers. I never put the Tiltbridge...

I am waiting on the ESP 32, TFT 2.4 touch screen, and cable to arrive. I just figured if the signal is very week, then the ESP setup can not work unless it can pick it up? I have not read any posts here that say their Tilts or iSpindle's now work, with this gear, through their st. steel...

@Thorrak ! What do you think about this "idea". I know there has to be a way, to let WiFi and/or Bluetooth signals, to get through a "soft" plastic like structure, or "antenna". This could be a great solution to this - MY 2 Pills and 2 Tilts, are useless in my Ss Unitanks. I was thinking...

MY 2 Pills are useless in my Ss Unitanks. I was thinking that there has to be a way, to attach a waterproof and <30psi proof, "antenna" to a Tri-Clamp. Then I could Triclamp it on, just like a thermowell, or heat-rod (etc...). This could let the wifi and Bluetooth signal escape, without the...

Thanks Lee! I will tell the Ol Ladies at the next pie, church bake sale..... I knew "it" could be above my scale... but all my Pi's lying around?

I can not get a reliable signal out of my Ss Unitanks, and was going to set up a mesh router network this week. Did you ever use your pills before the mesh? Just wondering if it will make a difference ?

I attempted to use my pills in my Ss Unitanks, and they are worthless. The signal may get a "Ping" through once every few days. I am in the process of installing a MESH WiFi group, to see if this helps. Also, wondering how this differs from the Tiltbridge, that @Thorrak created? Two things I...

I have been using a Spunding valve on all of my fermenters, for the Lagers, and never needed, nor wanted to go above 15 p.s.i. Not sure why in the world you would ever want to ferment at 30? My CO2 volumes are as high as I want them at 15, and if you are after a super pillow head (like an...

I reached out to Red Oak Brewery by email today to see if they would share there recipe with me.... I am just wondering how using this 100%, versus a beer that has crystal malt in it, to get a true red lager beer? Thanks for your quick reply. I will be brewing this soon, and need to hammer out...

I just came across this BEST Red X® Malt - BestMalz, that says you can use it at 100%? I am trying to clone a very delicious Red Oak Amber Lager, from Red Oak Brewery NC Has anyone used this before, and at 100% ?? I see morebeer.com has it in stock and want to get a 25Kg sack if I can use it...

Thanks so much for explaining this! Controlling the Beer Temp directly, is what I wanted to "do". Just turn the Pump ON, when there is call for cooling (the Profile is out of parameter), then just flip the contactor closed, when there is a need for the Heat, to dial in, closer to set point...

This question is for both, @LBussy and @Thorrak, and Anyone else, that can smack me in the head to tell me why... I do not have a Chamber (Fridge). My Unitanks sit outside in Room Temp (Thus, the need for a Glycol Shield) Cooling is done through a 36F water, heat exchanger. Why can't the...

No problem, @Thorrak , it only takes a finger "click" to temporarily change it. You have done enough on this already, and it is much appreciated by Us. I love the Heating and Cooling Duty feature reading. At a quick glance, it can tell me if my source of cooling equipment or heating...

Is there any way to "turn off" any of the unneeded graph lines, under "Time", like "Fridge Setting"? I read through the Documents and also can not find anything under Django Admin panel. Just trying to "unclutter" the graph, and make it easier to read. When you uncheck one of them or more, as...

how do you delete and entire message here? Only can Edit.....

CLUSTERS!! Well I do have two Version 2 Pi's, and three V-3B+, and a V-4B on the way..... so this may be a solution to my pollution on the desk? I never had any problems for years, running BPR, then I started to brew beer again, after 1.5 year lay-off (due to no time available, riding a bicycle...
