Yes, I guess I should point out that "someone" compelled me to change "orange" to that color. It doesn't have a real name outside of Texas as far as I know.
oh, it has a name...it’s just the forum algorithms won’t let the name be displayed properly. Seriously though...looks great.It doesn't have a real name outside of Texas as far as I know.
I recommend this one, available on Amazon. There are others on Aliexpress to save a couple of bucks but I've not directly tried these.Do you have an alternate screen that works?
Go here: Releases · thorrak/brewflasherI am having a hell of a time. I cannot get brewflasher installed on my Windows PC. I have tried everything including installing Python. Any ideas? Github does not have the flasher as a single executable file like I saw in a hoe to install video on Youtube.
THANKS! All I found on my own was the source code.Go here: Releases · thorrak/brewflasher

Run that file.
There is a revised case design thanks to @gromitdj - I just need to post it. Sorry about that...
It could be my browser (Chrome), "releases" does not come up as a tab on the website. The link that LBussy posted worked fine, I am not at home near my tilt at the moment, but the board seems to have fashed just fine..
Give me a few and let me see if I can figure out what happened.
More Noob questions:
I Flashed and installed a tiltbridge today, (Lolin ESP D32 Pro with Cable and TFT), it set up quickly with Brew Flasher and recognized my Red and Blue Tilts and populated on the tft screen.
I setup the tiltbridge in the AP program as "tiltbridge" and established on the same network as Fermentrack. I can log directly into the tiltbridge site 192.168.254.109 and see both tilts accurately updating.
When I go into Fermentrack at 192.168.254.51 I can add sensor "Tilt Hydrometer" and select Tiltbridge as the connection method. It asks for me to add a new tiltbridge and recognizes "tiltbridge" as one of the options. I enter it and get confirmation that a tiltbridge is setup and the URL is updated to Tiltbridge.
I now add the tilt hydrometer in fermentrack, selecting "tiltbridge" as connection option and it creates the sensor. When I go to the dashboard in Fermentrack and start a log for the tilt it doesn't generate any data for Gravity or Temperature and the graph never starts?, yet everything is working on the tft and the Tiltbridge Site?
I checked the Target URL and it looks correct http://192.168.254.51/tiltbridge/
Any ideas what I might be missing?
Update **** Solved *** I changed my Branch to DEV and updated - Restarted and the Tiltbridge started to populate correctly to Fermentrack.

These are smaller screens, true, but they are performing much better in testing right now. Unless you are looking for the larger form factor, these may be the best bet.
That said, in theory, any 320 x 240 ILI9341 TFT should work if you really want the real estate.
ETA: If you get the recommended one there, be aware it is USB-C. You will need an appropriate data cable to get it flashed.
Did this get posted by chance? Can't seem to find it... I printed TiltBridge Case - D32 Pro /w TFT by Thorrak which I found in the docs... but it appears the 1.1.0 print I made doesn't quite line up with the 1.1.0 screens I have. I thought maybe i printed 1.0.0 by accident, but just dbl checked and i did print the 1.1.0 files.
Thinking I can probably superglue the screen to fix it, but before fudging around thought i'd check if there was an update I missed. Re-printing would be easier.
Actually almost everything is now working as expected, but one question. The Tiltbridge updates about every 15 seconds and just after it updates, maybe a about 5 seconds later it auto updates on the Website Fermentrack GUI interface under the Gravity, ABV, and Temperature. The graph does not auto update. You can got about 5 minutes or so and it doesn't change, but if you manually refresh the page and it will redraw the graph correctly?
Is there a way or setting? to have the graph auto update automatically like the Gravity, Temperature, and ABV does?
No way, Jose.Currently, no. Getting that built was a bit of a pain, and my tolerance for working with dygraph ran out before I managed to get that feature working. For the time being, you'll have to manually hit refresh to get the graph to update - but that said, pull requests are definitely welcome on this one!
Hi there,
Here is from the doc.
If you use another board, make sure to select the appropriate firmware:
But i cant find the OLED firmware anymore?
- “OLED” boards, those with less than 16MB of flash, and those lacking a screen entirely should select the “OLED” firmware variant
- Any non-“OLED” board with 16MB of flash or greater using an attached ILI9341-driven TFT should select the “TFT” firmware variant.
Do the OLED firmware have a new name?
d32_pro_tft_firmware
lcd_ssd1306_firmware
tft_espi_firmware
Best regards,
Frank
been me that screwed it up. I'm
I'll have to print the STLs I have uploaded and check to make sure they fit the screens they claim to fit, but glancing at the files themselves they do appear to be shifted just the amount I would have expected between the two screen versions.
One thing I would recommend - Take a look at the actual screen you purchased and make sure that v1.1.0 is screen-printed on the PCB the TFT is mounted to. I think they found a batch of v1.0.0 screens late last year and actually went back to selling those, so some people who thought they bought v1.1.0 screens actually got v1.0.0.
They are in fact 1.1.0 (at least on the screen printing). But these are aliexpress screens... so, it's entirely possible someone is selling a batch of 1.0.0 screens, or just bad specs period... It's hard to get genuine parts via slow boat. I ended up just shaving the knobbies off and use a dab of superglue to hold the screens down. I'm not really too worried about the screen sliding around if it gets loose as long as it can't fall out.
I feel your pain. I have done it myself too many times.One suggestion.. on the TFT firmware it would be nice to turn off "press again to reset" function. A checkbox in the UI would be wonderful... since i hate this function. I've managed to reset mine a few times by accident when playing with it and have to reprogram the AP/SSID. I get the purpose of it, but wouldn't care if i had to reflash one that went awol.
I feel your pain. I have done it myself too many times.
I re-wrote that portion to make it less likely that you will mistakenly reset the WiFi connection. It is a (somewhat) necessary evil since there are no external buttons in that setup. The update will come when the new version is released.
Ack! Apparently I need to update/clarify the documentation - sorry about that!
The "SSD1306" is the OLED firmware. That is the part number of the OLED display.
Turns out they are in fact 1.0.0 (at least on the order link i used). But the screens physically say "1.1.0". I ordered them from aliexpress here: US $7.5 |TFT 2.4 Touch Shield V1.0.0 for LOLIN (WEMOS) D1 mini 2.4 . I wasn't aware there were two versions when ordering the screens. But when ordering the case to be printed I saw the notes and checked. I in fact have 3x screens that say "1.1.0" on them, but are "1.0.0" stock most likely since the 1.1.0 box didn't fit (didn't measure, but the lid tabs wouldn't fit with screen inserted without moving the screen over)
So ... everyone be aware, there are some sites selling 1.1.0 printed screens that are in fact 1.0.0. I wouldn't be surprised to see these showing up as "1.1.0" screens being sold. We may want to take measurements and verify not just by the lettering.

Note about the users who are having issues with missing time gaps... I've noticed the TCP stack on these is quite horrible... or the wlan is bad. I originally had just a "LOLIN D32 Pro v2.0.0" that I got off aliexpress so was thinking it's just cheap clone garbage. I ordered a one of the smaller USB-C TTGO boards from amzn to see if it was better.
Both appear to have at best 30-50ms ping response and usualy 300-700ms and about 30-50% pkt loss. I'm not sure if it's just an issue with ping being bad because ICMP is low priority or if it's legit that bad. I'm not logging via MTQQ the results yet so i don't know if i have gaps. But if the wifi is this spotty sitting next to the AP/router then i bet some of the folks here are going to have disconnects and other issues with them in garages, etc.
Two that i've tested so far, neither seems to be much better than the other as far as ping results. I favor the smaller form factor and cheapness of the USB-C model (no need to buy screen at $7):

It's amazing what a difference a year and a half of platform maturity makes!
55, and I still say "that's what she said!" at least a couple of times a day.I've been on this planet for 45+ years and I still don't know what maturity is.
I’ve had that happen - sometimes it takes a few attempts, but eventually it always connects. No idea why. It seems to be a function of the WiFi manager libraryI am having trouble connecting the esp to my network. I am able to open up the AP page and I can see my network and enter the password. then it states, Saving credentials
Trying to connect ESP to network
If it fails reconnect to AP to try again
It wont connect and the screen on the board is displaying this. please see pic. Can someone help me get this going?

If you drop to the shell and ping tiltbridge.local, do you get an IP address? Are you able to connect to the IP address displayed on the screen?I have one more question. I cant connect to the tiltbridge dashboard from my browser.
I finally got my board to connect to the internet and it displaying my tilt! Thanks to Thorrak and LBussy. I have one more question. I cant connect to the tiltbridge dashboard from my browser. I'm on a mac computer and i tried on my iPhone and it states,
This site can’t be reached
Check if there is a typo in tiltbridge.local.
DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN
If I had to guess, that is a result of the controller not completing the page requests. Those {{mustache braces}} should never show up if all the files load.
Shift-refresh and try again.
