|
The **Tilt Pi** {% term integration %} allows you to connect a Tilt Pi to Home Assistant to
|
|
automatically discover Tilt Hydrometer devices.
|
|
|
|
The Tilt Pi is a Raspberry Pi-based device that can read data from Tilt
|
|
Hydrometers and broadcast it over the network. The Tilt Pi can be used to
|
|
monitor the fermentation of beer, wine, cider, and other beverages.
|
|
|
|
The benefit of the Tilt Pi is that it can be placed in a location with better
|
|
reception than the Tilt Hydrometer itself, allowing for more reliable data
|
|
collection.
|
|
|
|
{% note %}
|
|
For instances where you only have a Tilt Hydrometer and not a Tilt Pi, consider
|
|
using the [Tilt Hydrometer integration](/integrations/tilt_ble).
|
|
{% endnote %}
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
1. Have a Raspberry Pi with the Tilt Pi software installed.
|
|
2. Have a Tilt Hydrometer in range of the Tilt Pi.
|
|
3. Have the IP address or hostname of the Tilt Pi.
|
|
|
|

|
Host:

|
|
Port:
|
|

|
|
{% endconfiguration_basic %}

|
## Supported functionality
|
|
|
|
### Entities
|
|
|
|
After adding the integration, you can add the Tilt Pi device to your Home
|
|
Assistant. If the Tilt Pi was found and there are Tilt Hydrometers in its range,
|
|
then entities will be created for each Tilt Hydrometer.
|
|
|
|
You may then use these entities in automations, scripts, dashboards, and other
|
|
integrations.
|
|
|
|
#### Sensors
|
|
|
|
- **Tilt Hydrometer temperature**
|
|
- **Description**: Current temperature of the Tilt Hydrometer.
|
|
- **Entity name**: `tilt_<tilt-pi-color>_temperature`
|
|
|
|
- **Tilt Hydrometer gravity**
|
|
- **Description**: Current specific gravity of the Tilt Hydrometer.
|
|
- **Entity name**: `tilt_<tilt-pi-color>_gravity`
|
|
|
|
## Data updates
|
|
|
|
The Tilt Pi integration {% term polling polls %} the Tilt Pi for data every 60 seconds. This
|
|
interval is currently not configurable.
|
|
|
|
## Supported devices
|
|
|
|
The following devices are known to be supported by the integration:
|
|
|
|
- [Tilt™ Pi v2 Bookworm May24](https://tilthydrometer.com/collections/tilt-pi/products/tilt-pi-v2-bookworm-may24-raspberry-pi-sd-card-image-download)
|
|
|
|
## Removing the integration
|
|
|
|
This integration follows standard integration removal. No extra steps are
|
|
required.
