It's been a while, a lot has happened (graduated University, moved cross country, started my first real job), but you know what's actually important? Yogurt. So sit down, relax, and hear the ramblings of a madman of the simplifications of my yogurt making automation. Now follows a tale of Accidents, Averages, and Algorithms (sorta).


"Next time, on Rice Cooker Adventures"

Completed since last time:

  • ensure the outlet will turn off if the ESP8266 loses connection
  • PID tune the setup for the most common scenario (steady 107^\circ \text{F} with the lid shut)

Left to do now:

  • solder a perfboard version of the circuit
  • add a relay to control the cooker directly
