It's already helped me get the right water addition post boil to my homebrew and I love that I can throw it in a fermenter and just check it from my phone on their app. It's slick, and there are a lot of 3rd party softwares that can plot your fermentation over time and help integrate it into your brewing recipes. They're also starting to work with professional brewers and have some cool toys offered on their site if you want to really get into larger scale brewing.I have one complaint about this thing: it can be a pain to set up logging. It uses a bluetooth LE signal while floating to send the temp/sg and it sends it every couple milliseconds which will quickly drain the battery. The bluetooth LE signal can be picked up by your phone or another device, like a raspberry pi, set up near the Tilt. You can set up logging through the phone app or a pi using a google doc (csv) which will log every 15 min. (This seems practical: if it logged every time the signal was sent you'd end up with a wicked large csv file pretty fast.) There are instructions on the tilt website for how to do this, and while it takes some time it's pretty straightforward. However, the way the google doc connection is set up is fairly unsecured.I ended up using a spam gmail account to set up logging so if it got hacked I wouldn't lose anything important or personal. Also, if you don't have a pi, your phone will need to be near the Tilt in order to pass that signal to the google doc. However, there's an active community of homebrewing-programmers that are working on some better open source tools for this device. If you want to go down that rabbit hole, check out linjmeyer/tilt-pitch on github. I haven't used it yet but I looked through the code and it looks really promising.All that being said, it's still a great device that I'm going to be using for the foreseeable future. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent tool for brews *by B***N on December 24, 2023* I love the way this thing tells you how your brew is doing. I began by linking it via Bluetooth to my phone to get it to the wifi and fill out a spreadsheet (created by Tilt for each brew). I get temperature and specific gravity readings every 15 minutes. After determining that it worked with my phone, I got a Raspberry Pi and downloaded the image from Tilt. Again, it was super easy to set up, and it's been working great for a month over three wine brews. Tilt has good information on how to set it up and use it. It is easily calibrated and accurate once calibrated. The only time I've seen mine become inaccurate is when the yeast aggressively devours the sugar (the first day or so). All the activity tends to make the tilt less accurate, but after that initial period, it does just fine. For me, this was well worth the money. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super product *by R***? on December 30, 2024* This has saved me so much time and effort regarding the homebrewing process. Unit will broadcast the temp and density reading even from inside a stainless steel fermenter. No need to open lids for readings. You have to be within a few feet of the Tilt to get the reading though.MAKE SURE YOU TIGHTEN THE CAP FULLY.A loose cap will cause your circuit board to short, also make sure you remove the battery after each use and wash the capsule, cap, rubber grommet after each use and leave the Tilt out until capsule and cap are 100% dry. I have made about 25 batches since I purchased this and it has worked flawlessly. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tilt Wireless Black Hydrometer and Thermometer: Patented Brewing Technology for Precision Monitoring & Control for Fermentation of Beer, Wine, Cider, Mead & More - Five Star - 6022b_ - Star San - 32 Ounce - High Foaming Sanitizer - Five Star - PBW Cleanser - 4lb Alkaline Cleaner --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.ke/products/60070193-tilt-black](https://www.desertcart.co.ke/products/60070193-tilt-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kenya* *Store origin: KE* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
