#37763 @SwiCago – thank you for review and nice post!

With all good comments and encouragement I am thinking about expanding this project. Maybe with MQTT to integrate with openHAB? This would show how to add ready to use user interface for an IOT project.

#37913 Looks like a great project. I wrote a similar project for controlling a vivarium with temperature and humidity control. This was a ways back when the IDE was not very mature, and the ESP would crash a lot. Was even before OTA!!! I however, did not have a humidifier to test it. Temp control worked great though.

However.. I have written a sous-vide machine.. and it looks (from your graph) that you might be looking for this.

This lib is great. Takes some getting used to, to figure it out. See here for https://learn.adafruit.com/sous-vide-po ... /sous-vide.

Now, with PID you would end up at a steady state humidity, and not the saw toothed profile you showed. It does work very well for temp. I see no reason why this would not work for your humidity. And I'd be very interested to see it work.

That picture is my sous-vide machine reaching equilibrium. This is all run on the ESP8266. The little blip is where I put the food in the cooker.
