My understanding is that the DS18B20 is a digital sensor, so I dont think it will work with an analog thermistor jack. I have used the DS18B20 in an Arduino project and had to wire it to one of the digital pins and use the OneWire library to control it. Not sure how that would work with a...

Thanks Bryan. I will give those settings a try and see how it works. I have never tinkered with the "fan on above" and "fully open at" settings but I can see how adjusting those would be beneficial to avoid overshooting the temperature on a Kamado style grill.

Greetings all. I have a Heatermeter with Microdamper that I have been using on my WSM 14.5. I run it at stock PID settings with great results. To my surprise my wife bought me a large Big Green Egg for Christmas and I want to try it out for smoking. The PID tuning page has some proposed PID...

Here is a picture of the board. My soldering skills probably need some improvement, but the first board I built worked perfectly and this one is good other than the issue with the blower circuit. Picture of the board I checked Q1 and it definitely is a BS170. Unless someone sees something...

I just finished building a second HM v4.3 board and the blower output is stuck at 100%. Everything else is working fine. The HM is available on the network, all controls on the HM work, and the servo opens as it should when the output % is increased manually. I know that the damper and fan (a...
