Pick Me! Pick Me! :) Good luck everyone!

In the last 3 years, I've had a really significant jump in the quality of my beers, and I've attributed it primarily to great yeast health and viability. As the saying goes, brewers make wort, yeast make beer. There's a crazy amount of information out there about yeast health and starters, and...

Sanders, you're everywhere! Have to say I'm a fan, although I'm behind quite a bit. I love all the trivia and discussion about the movie / book that you're basing the recipe on, I was just sharing some of the tidbits from your Apocalypse now episode with a coworker. I was a bit surprised when...

I finally got around to replacing my D1 mini (with the squared off top corners) with some I bought from Amazon with rounded corners, and it worked like a charm.

I'm not laughing, I was thinking about that, and if I were in your shoes (pun intended) that would probably be the route I would go as well. I'm actually thinking about doing both the mats and the inserts 😁.

Thanks for that, those look really reasonable!

That's an idea. I may have to give that a try.

You aren't kidding. I found some on Grainger, and they're $150 for 12 12x12 mats.

Thanks for the link! My thoughts were to cover at least the whole front half of my garage in interlocking mats, so I'm covered on all of my garage activities :)

Howdy All! After a day of brewing, my back is killing me from standing on the concrete for so long. I try to make myself sit down, but I'm just more of a stand up guy :) Anyone use any anti-fatigue type of flooring in their garage? I was thinking I could get some of those interlocking tiles...

Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to replace my D1 Mini yet, things have been a bit busy. The ones I've had trouble with are in fact the squared off top corners though. Although the replacements I ordered also have squared off corners ...

Thanks for bringing that up!

That's a great tip! I don't know why I didn't think of that. I'll have to make sure to do that! Thanks!

By headers, do you mean the plastic things that go around the pins, or the pins themselves? I am using the soldered pins to connect the D1 Mini to the PCB board, and I left the plastic on them. They don't cover the entire pin though. I'm pretty much following the process that open source...

I've been relying heavily on the Open Source Distilling guides and videos. On his firmware flashing page he said that "Please note that the community has reported that you can flash the D1 mini before doing any soldering or assembly. The iSpindel can be assembled after the D1 has been flashed...

I tried it with both Brewflasher and nodemcu-flasher.

I have tried that myself, with no luck. I performed the process of wiping all the memory and then laying the new image on it, and I tried it with a couple of different versions of the firmware.

I'm not quite sure yet. I also posted over in the facebook group and another person had the same issue, and they thought it was a bad D1 Mini, so he ordered a replacement. Then later on he posted that it was working with the replacement. I ordered and received some replacements, but haven't had...

That's not a bad suggestion. Thanks!

Just as an update, I posted to the iSpindel Facebook Group, and someone has the same issue, and ordered a new D1 Mini thinking it may be suspect. I was going to go that route as well, but I would still like to hear from anyone who might have had the same issue.
