    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    I think that's the I value. Honestly, PID is one of those things that needs some time OR an excellent calculator/loop tuning if you want to dive in. It's rare that a standard-ish heat/cool setup on 1-10 gallons ever needs tweaking. When I thought I wanted to use my degree to be an Engineer, I...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    Freaking numpy. I am having some surgery this week (no, @Thorrak, not to remove my head from my ass) and I am not going to be able to get to this quickly. Sorry about that.

    YOU do. :)

    The uninstaller will get you to where the installer will run again. Your choice really.

    Clear any adjustments and let it run a day or so with the same thermal mass and see what happens. Yes, PID stands for "tempted end user to make bad mistakes." In the original Russian of course.

    I had a look, and this is not the one I thought it was. This is more than likely just a transitory issue negotiating SSL. You should try it again.

    I have an error (thanks, Python) for which I need to push a fix. I’m traveling today but I might be able to get that today/tomorrow. Sorry for the trouble.

    The Uno can be finicky but if it’s running it’s running. I understand the sideways glances you give the system now, but I’m glad it’s going.

    It’s funny since moving I have not brewed but I am 99.99% sure. I did not remove any features .

    Traveling but yet, clearing EEPROM is the first thing to try.

    That sounds horrible, you must send it to me immediately for proper disposal.

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    You are correct. When we put the I2C LED code in I had to shorten some strings (16 characters as I remember) to get the code to fit. I also added the screen reset on timer. Other than that, the code is unmolested. It sounds like a floating point conversion error that may be due to an update...

    I've found EC-1118 to be "indelicate." I'm sure the process I listed can be used for other yeasts. It's the yeast volume + the air bubbler that really seemed to make the difference. I have a box just for "Skeeter Pee Stuff."

    The "cool" solenoid is either the pump or a valve. The glycol system should have its own thermostat.

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    I’ve read where people have done that. I have enough projects right now. :) What’s weird to me is you had a nice ramp down and then had issues after you reset your chiller. While what Dave shared is a concern for most people, not you though. You can safely reduce that differential since you...

    Skeeter Pee

    This is why I developed a deterministic method for success. While the recipe that served as inspiration was good, people did have issues. For instance the Montrachet yeast made a horrible sulfur smell because the yeast are under stress. In this thread I shared what worked for me. Post 20 is...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    There’s no compressor delay in glycol either. If you have a heater in there, I would definitely turn it off if you are cold crashing and it’s not sitting in your garage in 0° weather. I don’t own a glycol system, I stole the settings from brewpiless. If somebody wants to buy me a glycol, I’d be...

    Well, there’s no PID gain in the Glycol controller firmware, so I’m going to flat out guess that the glycol needs to be colder (since it worked up to a point). I’d crank it down a bit and see what happens.
