Latest firmware version for Brewpi on Leonardo

[luccio]

Hi,

I am starting to build a brewpi based on Arduino Leonardo and a DIY shield.
It sounds good, I can build the firmware with my custom pinout, I can upgrade my arduino and I can read the first temperature on the web pages.

But I am asking if I have started my dev with the latest arduino firmware version ?
I am using the firmware-0.2.10 from Git, is it the latest stable version ? or should I get a newer ?

Thank you for your help.

0.2.10 is the latest release for the Arduino:

End of life release for Arduino

Hi I am happily still using my Arduino. It has it's quirks but it does the job.. I know spark etc is where the development is, but I want to get my old arduino up to latest release as I have not updated since early 2015... Where can I check if l am running latest version? Then how do I update? Regards Richard

If you want newer features, upgrade to the Spark Photon:

Why the Arduino version has been discontinued

I am getting a lot of requests for the older Arduino version of BrewPi. I assume most people want the Arduino version because it was cheaper, because I cannot think of another good reason. However, if you bought it from our store with a case and display, the total would have been about 80 euros. Not as much as the BrewPi Spark, but not a huge difference. Yes, if you buy knockoffs from China, omit the display and breadboard it together, you can build it a lot cheaper. But I want to sell something…

Thank you for the answer, Arduino version is fine for me now.
Moreover, I have an old RaspberryPi to use in a DIY project and this project looks perfect !

Good luck!

It works great. This is my first brew:

The +/- 0.3 C “anomalities” are caused by me tweeking the installation while I am running my first installation. If you power off the Brewpi and opens the fridge for a while it sometimes has a +/- 0.3 “error” for an hour or so before returning to the normal +/- 0.1 C . Pretty impressive if you ask me Cheers!
