Temperature/moisture sensor for compost bin
-
I havevrecently purchased a plastic compost bin and partly filled it with some mixture of grass cuttings and horse Manure. I would like to bevable to.monitor the temperature and moisture level in the middle of the pile of rotting compost to allow me to adjust the conditions if necessary ideally I would like to be able to read the data from inside my house. So my question is, does anyone make a sensor that will detect temperature and moisture level, that will stand the conditions inside the cospistvheap. It will need to have a problematic leastb50cm long. Ideally it will communicate with my phone, or a Raspberry Pi, or a Home Assistant system by Bluetooth or Wfi or Zigbee or some other wireless means. Or if I can't find this, it could be 1-wire.
Does such a thing exist? If not, what would be the easiest way to make one?Thank you - Rowan
