    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    I think that is a really good plan. The developer and designer both deserve some love :). I just took a quick glance at what is available via Thorrak as well as this latest design. Do you have any inputs as to which would be preferred? Looks like Thorrak hasn't had a hardware update in over a...

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    Thanks for the offer! I just took a look and it seems that I would end up with 10 boards. At most I probably need 3 or 4. I didn't explore shipping options but maybe for that quantity it would be worth printing myself. I'm sure I'll bug you if I decide to go forward. I've never done anything...

    Received my OLED. Great that I can simply throw a new bin on the device and everything works without fail. But man, what was I thinking ordering .96" OLED. I can't see anything on that thing! @pocketmon, does BPL ONLY support the 128x64 - 0.96" or can I use a larger OLED? EDIT: I see that...

    No worries! Thanks for the update. I'll keep an eye out.

    I decided the 20x4 lcd was too bright for me. I ordered a 128x64 OLED to replace it. I know bigdaddyale is ordering some PCB boards. With that said, could we have some pictures of people's hardware setup? This is because I have a few questions: 1. With pocketmon's ongoing changes, is a...

    I haven't gone down the iSpindel route...but that sounds like an awesome idea. The idling time overall doesn't seem too important to me. Would it be worth while adding an "issue" to github? Maybe this functionality could be implemented in the future?

    http://vito.tw/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/BrewPiLess-1.png This image may help you to ensure you have the wiring set up right. Even without brewpiless flashed, my screen was on, blank and bright with zero characters/text on the screen. Once I flashed the BPL bin, I then saw "Initialize Wifi"...

    I have yet to change the hostfile on windows to have a host name. I am slightly concerned that the device always connects to ...0.30...even though I've tried many times to set the static ip to ...0.50. That's why I tried to reset the router to see if it is something to do with that IP address...

    Thanks for the quick reply. I now learned that I can delete from filemanager as well as upload. Good to know! Doing this still didn't fix the problem. I am going to try and do a full erase of the nodemcu and reflash 2.5.1. It might take me a bit, but I wouldn't mind updating the readme to add...

    More stupid questions... I can access all pages but index.htm. This includes using the web based file manager as well as the nodemcu flasher and reflashing 2.5.1. This also includes restarting via the nodemcu button as well as powering down the device and plugging it back in. I was able to...

    Nothing seems to be taking. I'm probably going to re-flash tomorrow. I can't get to the index page anymore and the default config page still shows as Tom's. This is after restarting a few times. At least I know what to do now. Thanks.

    Let me remove Tom's frontend config page and see if the option shows up.

    I just upgraded to 2.5, I'll go get on 2.5.1. Edit1:Upgrade to 2.5.1 went smoothly. The auto-off does work now. However, without a button it won't be turning back on for a while lol. I looked around at the backlight changes and it seems there should be a json command to change the value for the...

    On off would certainly be beneficial via software. I can certainly order a button if that option is not added. I want to make sure I finalize everything I need before 3d printing a case.

    The buttons look like a nice upgrade. Could one of them be used to turn the LCD on or off? Maybe the other for brightness (if that is even controllable?) I would definitely like a way to put the LCD to sleep. It is really bright and blinding...and stuck on 24/7

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    I am definitely interested. I've noticed the pcb from RollE2k as well as Thorrak's. How often do these become obsolete based on changes to BPL? I'd like to settle on a pcb and a 3d printed case (tough to find) so that I don't have to use a cardboard box/breadboard anymore lol. Thanks for the...

    I do only want to log temperature data currently. I can assign it as a fridge for the time being. I am using the prebuilt binary and it looks like the setup page only lets me change it to chamber or room temp. I guess I'll keep it this way for now and work towards fixing the other issues.

    I see that the PID setting is set to 0, such that the fridge will match the beer. I haven't had any luck finding an answer. What should the PID settings be in order to turn the fridge sensor completely off? (figured out how to update...I needed to specify the port, unlike other pages)...

    BrewPi@ESP8266, no need of RPI and Arduino.

    The wiring was OK. It was the bus that I had to modify in the test code. I currently only have 1 sensor connected (device 0) for beer temp. I previously set my keezer up to use the STC-1000 and I figure I'll slowly replace it with the esp. Although I only have a sensor for BEER, how come the...

    My sketch shows: Parasite power is: OFF Detected 0 devices I will try to wire it up again tomorrow and try another sensor if needed.
