Wine Cellar Climate Monitor Kit with ESP32 + DHT22 v17
Wine Cellar Climate Monitor – Pre-Soldered ESP32 + DHT22 Kit with Zigbee Connectivity
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Transform a bare ESP32-C6 development board and a DHT22 sensor into a discreet, battery-friendly climate sentinel that slips into any wine rack. Once soldered together inside the included ABS enclosure, the monitor joins your Zigbee network and reports live temperature and humidity to Zigbee2MQTT — no wiring clutter, no cloud subscription needed.
What You'll Build
You’ll hand-assemble a compact, Zigbee-connected environmental monitor that safeguards wine storage conditions. After completing the solder connections on the prototype board, you’ll house the unit in the miniature ABS box, flash the provided firmware, and watch temperature and humidity readings appear in your home automation dashboard. The device runs on the ESP32-C6’s ultra-low-power Zigbee radio, making it ideal for cellars where WiFi signals are weak.
What You'll Learn
- Solder through-hole components (DHT22, resistors, headers) onto a PCB
- Flash custom firmware to an ESP32-C6 over USB
- Configure Zigbee network joining and pair with Zigbee2MQTT
- Interpret real-time sensor data for humidity control in food and wine storage

Who This Kit Is For
Young tinkerers (with an adult’s supervision) who want to learn soldering and IoT through a real-world use case. It’s also a perfect weekend project for CBSE Class 11–12 students exploring embedded systems, B.Tech ECE/EEE freshers building a sensor node, or hobbyists adding a custom Zigbee climate sensor to their home automation setup. ATL Tinkering Labs and school maker clubs across India will find the build time and clear documentation just right.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Your kit’s AI companion walks you through every connection, and our team is available on WhatsApp to clarify any doubt.
Can I use this without a Zigbee network?
The firmware is designed for Zigbee2MQTT, but you can reprogram the ESP32-C6 over USB to use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth instead.
Is soldering safe for a 5-year-old?
Adult supervision is required for the soldering steps. The iron is low-wattage and the kit includes safety guidance in the companion app.
Will this monitor work in a basement with poor Wi-Fi?
Yes, Zigbee creates its own low-power mesh network that penetrates thick walls far better than Wi-Fi, making it perfect for cellars.
Wine Storage — ESP32-C6 in tiny enclosure joins Zigbee network and sends DHT22 readings. Pairs with Zigbee2MQTT.
