Stops uploading data to the web

First time using with a real live batch of beer. Once I had all the settings where I wanted them including the temp profile I plugged in my cooler and heater unit. It started out great sending all the data via the web. After about 20 minutes I no longer was receiving the data via the web. Had to call my wife at home a few times while I went back to work to check my temp. I didn't see this issue in your threads.

What version are you running? Is it disconnecting from the network?

Mine has now stopped uploading as well. I am running the latest version. I can stop the session and start a new one but no data is being logged.

Hey Guys,

Just got my brewbit yesterday and mine hasn't been logging any data online. I can change settings on the brewbit via the site, but nothing is being plotted on the graph, and it's not displaying the current temp on the website. Maybe this is related to your problem?

Wow, I'm an idiot. Updated software and didn't realize I had to reactivate. Works now... woops.

My brewbit seems to have stop uploading too. Updated, re-activated, turned on and off, disconnected/reconnected to network and nothing seems to work to get it back working. Everything looks normal on the unit but have --F and --F on both Temp and Setpoint. Any ideas?

Try to stop the session and restart it.

About how far away is the Model-T from your wifi connection, maybe it is getting a really weak signal, if that is the case you could try using a wifi signal repeater/booster.

My brewbit is next to my wifi router. Starting and stopping did not help, On and off did not help. Re-activating did not help. Upgrading to unstable 1.3.3 did not help, Downgrading to stable 1.3.1 did not help. Anything else I am missing?

Seems like it just stopped uploading to dashboard.

I am also seeing this, with firmwares v1.3.1, v1.3.2, and v1.3.3.

The WiFi connection seems to be fine, but the connection to BrewBit seems to be dropping out every so often. Powercycling the BrewBit fixes the issue for a while.

Is the Model-T asking you to reactivate it under the WiFi settings menu?

jimbooth 2014-08-16 02:43:15 UTC #11

It is not asking me to activate. It says there is a account and network connection established. Temps got up and down on the screen, just not going to dashboard.

So I am having connection issues once again. My log shows a day since last connection. This current session, I've been disconnected 3 times now. No clear whys, just does this randomly. Seems that my settings continue on the MT, but the data isn't getting updated, and doesn't appear to be saved and uploaded after I reset.

We are looking into this right now

Just started using my unit for the first time last night, purchased from Kickstarter. SN0505, updated the software and activated online. Created a temp profile and started the session at 8pm, it logged data to the website for about two hours and then stopped updating the website graph. The program is still running on the MT, the real-time screen display shows that. It is connected to my network, confirmed in the display and settings. It appears hung up trying to connect to the BrewBit server according to the display.

Not the best out of box experience, hope this gets sorted out quickly.

Try pulling the power plug and let it reconnect. Normally fixes the issue for a while.

mrmcmonagle 2014-09-15 17:45:26 UTC #16

Since it's in the middle of an extended cold crash profile I'm not unplugging anything right now. The controller is following the programmed session, just not reporting it. When I do unplug it and reboot, wonder if it will upload the missing data to the server for viewing?

"Normally fixes it for a while" isn't exactly reassuring, good thing I still have my Fermostat and Ranco controllers as backups if this continues.

ecotony 2014-09-15 21:54:46 UTC #17

The unit appears to continue to work per the program/profile, but doesn't update. You are correct to wait on a profile, as it may just go back to the beginning of the profile if you unplug. I believe it shouldn't, but you are right to avoid risking.

Unplugged and reset when I got home, lost all data between 1:00am this morning and 6:45pm but it appears the program ran properly.

ecotony 2014-09-17 16:56:12 UTC #19

My session continues to stop uploading. Maybe the wifi has issues with all the heat? I've been loosing connection quite a bit during these recent heatwaves.

mrmcmonagle 2014-09-17 21:15:06 UTC #20

Mine has stayed online since the reset, fingers crossed.
