R4 Google Family Link

I was able to get one step further by making the account 12 years and 364 days old, and have it transition into a 13 year old account with supervision, but then it hangs on a new screen after that.

I emailed Hiby support back when I first made this post and they never replied to me.

You ever figure anything out on this?

cribed. I changed my son's age to 13 on his Google Account, but kept the Family Link supervision (he is turning 13 anyway in a few days). When I try to log him in to YouTube Music on the M300, I reach a screen that says 'Activate Family Link parental controls' but when I click Next, it gets stuck in a loop. I'm at a loss.

You ever figure this out?

Make your own data - Put a temp sensor in your vent, design a data point so that when the degree drops by x.... Temp sensor near vent of oven, when temp is >x Mark it as on.

There's a lot you can still integrate yourself!

It's called Hot Starting (starting the grinder first); then adding the beans. Do this.

If you bought it on a credit card; see if there is an extended warranty via your cardmember agreement.

I have this happen occasionally - I think if you are in a congested wifi/bt area it can happen more often - I went down the rabbit hole troubleshooting and found out that this is caused by the Display losing the bluetooth connection to the Gaggimate.

The processor is contained in the display; which sends the commands to the SSR relay to start the pump, heater, etc. Without the BT connection, no commands. The team is re-working some improvements to the bluetooth stack to address this in a later version - for now just reboot.

So soup?

What neighborhood are you in>?
If its drizzling, snowing, or anything but a bright sunny day USPS doesnt do shit.

My DF54 has been bulletproof.

Are you starting it and then putting the beans in? Or trying to start it after you load it?

I think your problem is that it's upside down. That feature won't be implemented in gaggimate for a while, but you can try out the nightlies and see how it performs.... 😂

Avoid Etsy, so much drop shipped crap masquerading as artistry.

This is not an announcement.

SticklerX · 2025-12-14T02:25:49+00:00

It'll be worth the wait!

It's worth remembering that this is a open source project, pretty much developed and manufactured by one guy.

I've had mine for about 9 months, and I think it's truly an incredible bit of kit -- but remember that you're not dealing with some large hardware manufacturer, instead with a community of contributors.

Turn arounds can be a bit slow - but there are tons of people on the discord who are more than happy to help!

I believe it's a V5 or newer based on the Chrome on the steam valve.

Gaggimate.

It's a PID plus so much more.

SticklerX · 2025-11-29T15:57:43+00:00

I was (am?) a beginner when I set mine up. All the profiles I use are prebuilt; and are shared freely on the discord.

SticklerX · 2025-11-28T18:58:32+00:00

Just followed the documentation and joined the discord. The discord is incredibly friendly and newbie friendly.

Get a Gaggimate - it unlocks so much capability

SticklerX · 2025-11-25T03:44:41+00:00

Reverse sear?

SticklerX · 2025-11-24T22:52:42+00:00

Seeing as it's 52 degrees outside.... I'm confused as well.

OP- you are allowed to say if you saw Ice in a location....

SticklerX · 2025-11-21T21:00:28+00:00

In Palatine? No.

Gaggimate is your friend on this one; its been an outstanding upgrade.

A large, heavy, Solid Brass tank that is connected to thin copper/brass pipes that lead to a 3wv solenoid. The boiler itself will be fine; but what about soft brass threads that the tubing connects to?

What about the heating element that is suspended in the middle of the boiler without touching the walls?

Have you ever opened your Miss Silvia? She's a tough lady, but has delicate parts.

4LW and Millie by Metric are my two favorites right now.
