    iSpindel Digital Hydrometer

    I had this problem twice. It was a bad soldering problem.

    BrewPiLess. BrewPi on a single Wifi board.

    Finally finished my BrewPiLess acrylic case. It uses the same idea of the BrewPi case available on Thingiverse, using only screws/nuts to put all the pieces together. Posted all the files here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2924101 The project is made for US and Brazilian power...

    Hi Duran, it definitely will work. Somebody actually already did it. Check this out:

    No, I didn't. Actually I don't even live in Australia. ;)

    Things got easier. Use this Aliexpress shop list but replace the 470 ohm resistor for a BAT43 Schottky Diode. For the board, buy this one: https://pcbs.io/board/cc3e8a392dc8a9521a15ef98ed3e7abace9f9888af7625a097aafc75fa2716fc For the PET tube, use this one...

    Sometimes this is the best way to solve an unknown problem. Let's try it.

    Well, there is no reason to fix the ispindel IP to static. And even when you change the interval to 0 s the isoindek is able to update around 20 to 30s, that's it as minimum.

    You can discover your BrewPiLess IP by using an app at your smartphone called IP Tools (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appworld.iptools), Download it and tap on "Lan Scanner". It will find all devices hooked into your network. The BrewPiLess is the one with "Expressif Inc."...

    Hi Peter, The BrewPiLess settings are very simple. All you have to do is click/tap at the "gravity sensor" menu and tick the "gravity sensor option,like this: After that you must set your iSpindel like this: You can change the "Update interval" to something shorter but I think 1 hour for...

    Sometimes a 2nd order equation fits better than a 3rd one. You will pick the one that has smaller errors.

    Try this page: http://dumpa.com.br/ispindel/calibration/ It gives you the error in gravity. The error means the difference between the real gravity and the cslculated gravity (calculated by the 2nd or 3rd degree equation)

    If you see an ESP-Something wifi access point instead of "ispindel" then the BIN file wasn't flashed properly. Try again to upload the BIN file. Are you using NodeMcu flasher?

    1 - Check your results from your calibration. Maybe the error at 1.000 could be something around 0.003. 2 - For me, I don't think that 0.003 would be a big problem. The main reason I am using iSpindel is to check when the primary fermentation has finished (attenuation is over), so if the final...

    Just my 2 cents (and maybe I'm wrong) I was thinking about this and still not sure if it's a good idea. Glass is much heavier than the plastic tube so the rate of angle variation / gravity will be smaller than in the plastic one. As a conclusion you will have a device that can measure...

    If you use the Mikmonken board you don't have to use that orange wire from the original diagram since this job is done by the Mikmonken PCB.

    Yes, you still have to remove it even if use the PCB.

    My 0.02: 1 - If the Temp sensor was working but not the Gyro sensor, it could be a faulty gyro sensor or bad soldering. The tip is to use a multimeter to check continuity at the pins. 2 - Here are some explanation from the creator of the iSpindel for the "why": . 3 - After removing the LED...
