Just quickly tested and works fine for me. Not sure if it’s because I worked down the tree starting by enabling the Beer setpoint, fridge setpoint driver and then working my way towards the heat & cool. I noticed banners sometimes failed to update without a refresh of the widget/page.
Did you flash the Firmware? option 5 under ‘brewblox-ctl’.
I have 3 sparks and only flashed one, which is fine but the other 2 exhibit the same symptoms that you have.
I haven’t flash the other two yet but that might be the cause.

To echo @rbpalmer: did you flash the firmware?
If the numbers are not selectable, you probably also have the text “set by (other block)” in the widget. This indicates that that other block is in charge, and would override any change you made to the setting.
The firmware update makes sure that if you disable the controlling block, it will stop overriding settings.

Still the same issue
@Trig, your flash didn’t work (See below the message in you screen capture). Have you got the USB cable connected between the PI and Spark. If you have try a different cable.
Thanks, yes,
I have now tried multiple cables and get the same result ??
Including the same cable used to update to this brewblox update which seemed to work.
What does the Spark LED look like? Is it blinking slow/fast, and in which color?
The LED is a slow green, ip is showing at top left.
Have you rebooted the PI while it is connected to the Spark using the USB cable? I think it has to see it at boot for docker to be able to use it. (I could be wrong though)
The docker container must be started after the cable is plugged in. The Pi does not have the same restriction.
If you run lsusb on your Pi, with the Spark plugged in over USB, what is the output?
pi@raspberrypi : ~ $ cd ./brewblox
pi@raspberrypi : ~/brewblox $ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 2b04:c006
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMSC9512/9514 Fast Ethernet Adapter
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMC9514 Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
pi@raspberrypi : ~/brewblox $
Thats looks correct: the 2b04:c006 device is your Spark.
Do you have Slack? That may be a more suitable way to debug than a discussion in the announcement thread.
Sorry no bit out of my league.
I have now re run the flash etc which seems to allow me to enable the blue error messages however I still cannot change the beer set point when the figures are selected.

We did some digging, and that’s indeed a bug. We’ll hotfix that as soon as possible.
Edit: @Trig the hotfix is now live. Run brewblox-ctl update to get it. You do not need to flash the firmware.
Thanks Bob, It is repaired after the latest update.
Don’t forget to refresh your browser!
Sorted!
Thanks to you all.
For whatever reason I have lost my webpage access and now issues with re-running setup. process. This is what I am getting so far:

Can you try flashing the firmware instead of the bootloader?
Please note that this requires a USB connection. And if you don’t have a web interface, make sure that the system is brought back up with brewblox-ctl up
