My iSpindel got wet inside with beer on the last brew. Before the iSpindel got wet it worked OK with Fermentrack, but I'm getting ready to brew again and testing everything out first. The iSpindel didn't work for me the other day. Someone suggested Gravitymon, and I'm also trying Brewpiless instead of Fermentrack. When Gravitymon booted up, I saw it couldn't see the Dallas sensor, so I replaced it but later found out it wasn't bad. I also replaced the D1 Mini (with Gravitymon on it instead of iSpindel firmware), the Charging PCB, and added a jumper wire from the Dallas Sensor resistor to the D1 Mini (must have broken the trace at some point - the reason the Dallas sensor was not seen).
I now have Gravitymon running instead of iSpindel firmware. I can access the web interface of Gravitymon. I set up the URL for Brewpiless in the Gravitymon web interface. When I do a test push, the data shows up fine in Brewpiless. No trouble. As long as Gravitymon is in config mode, the updates get sent to and show up in Brewpiless every 10 seconds (for testing). As soon as I stand up the iSpindel off of horizontal, the blue LED stops flashing on the iSpindel and it won't update Brewpiless anymore. However, if I press the reset button on the D1 Mini, I'll see just one update in Brewpiless, but none after that.
I suspect it's a Gravitymon/iSpindel problem and not a Brewpiless problem since when sending the test push, data shows up. I can't figure out how to fix this.
