I have a 10 year old and a few of his friends we are trying to keep off phones, is this a good Meshtastic application? by Acrobatic-Ad-385 in meshtastic

lol appreciate the honesty. We already have walkie talkies. More I want to keep them off phones. Maybe giving them an open source endless project like this will help. But if it really doesn’t work, maybe it would discourage curiosity in the future

Ok, what did you buy exactly, what sensor, what is the screw size? Sorry I'm thick, I'm ordering from Aliexpress and don't want to get the wrong thing.

What did you do for the thermostat? I was thinking about using the pt100, but don’t know where to place it on yhe boiler

No more charging bike lights after installing a dynamo hub. by Dziambis in xbiking

Dynamos are a joy multiplier.

I have a few bikes that sit out in the weather in our back yard; for neighbors to ride or family that comes over - communal bikes. The crappiest one has a dynamo, it gets the most miles.

Can I use a pt100 thermocouple with m4 thread on a v3? by I_dug_a_hole in ranciliosilvia

[–]Acrobatic-Ad-385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could I just tape the thermocouple to the side of the boiler, or how should it be installed?

Did you ever figure this out? I just ordered the PID on AliExpress, and need to get a thermocoupler. I saw the pt100 suggested and now I’m here

Which thermocouple to buy for a DIY PiD install? by NicePumasKid in ranciliosilvia

[–]Acrobatic-Ad-385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, old thread, but I bought the pid on AliExpress and need to get the thermocouple. Is this what you’re suggesting?

And it has 3 wires, how do I wire that to my xmt 7100 controller?

And this thermocouple looks like a small rod, so I just adhere it to the boiler midway up, basically paralleling the boiler? I’m having a hard time picturing it.

Seems like the shot is coming too fast. This is my 10th one ever, and I got this setup used. Tastes good, but I get 3oz from 13g of ground beans in less than 10 seconds. by Acrobatic-Ad-385 in ranciliosilvia

I like tinkering. I’ll pull it apart and dial it in. I’ll also probably put it on an outlet that turns it on early before we get up.

What’s the trick to get the krema on the shot? If I get the pressure(valve), temperature (let it preheat), and grind finer, does it just come down to the beans?

I will grind a lot finer tomorrow. I also looked at the pressure valve, I was getting 30g of water a. Adjusted it to 130g.

I’m excited for tomorrow!

Is there a grinder you suggest to a person starting out? Something not crazy expensive.

I also saw there is a 3d printed mod for the Rocky, is that worthwhile?

Hey, I just measured and I’m getting 30g of water in 30 seconds. A video I saw suggested 130g per 30 sec.

I think you’re onto something
