I realize it might be user error. What some people call the ID10T (idiot) error.
I got a 5.5 cu Galanz chest freezer that was on sale. Combined it with the Inkbird ITC 308 wifi. For heat was using a small personal heater (Honeywell Amazon.com: Honeywell HCE100B Heat Bud Ceramic Heater Black Energy Efficient Space Saving Portable Personal Heater With 2 Heat Settings for Home, School, Office: Home & Kitchen).
Problem Im having is it seems the freezer doesnt actuall stop cooling when its turned off.
I have the setting at:
Target temp = 67 degrees (assumption its actually 68 in fermenter)
Cooling differential = 66 degrees
Heating differential = 68 degrees
When the Inbird shows 69 the freezer comes on. But when it hits 67, the freezer does turn off but keep cooling for 10+ degrees? Temps keep plummeting even though freezer off.
It must be user error (or a homebrew unfriednly chest freezer model):
Galanz 5.0 cu ft Chest Freezer
