ESP32 Wine Cellar Climate Monitor Kit — Secure Temperature & Humidity Logging with AES-128 Encryption

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Wine demands precise temperature and humidity. A few degrees or percent off can ruin a bottle. This kit lets you build a battery-operated, Wi-Fi-connected monitor that encrypts every sensor reading before sending it to a cloud dashboard — so no one between your cellar and your phone can see the data. You’ll assemble the circuit, flash the ESP32 with firmware implementing AES-128 encryption, and watch the secure flow from DHT22 and BMP280 sensors to an MQTT broker where an authorized server decrypts the payload.

What You'll Build

Your final assembly is a compact climate monitor that records temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure at configurable intervals, displays them locally on an OLED, and publishes encrypted MQTT messages to any broker you choose. You’ll see live readings on a dashboard and know they’re protected end-to-end — exactly what a serious wine cellar demands.

What You'll Learn

• Implement AES-128 encryption on an ESP32 using the Arduino framework
• Set up MQTT over Wi-Fi with secure publish/subscribe
• Read and calibrate digital sensors (DHT22, BMP280) via I2C
• Design a server-side decryption routine in Node.js or Python (tutorial provided)
