Wine Cellar Climate Monitor Lab Kit with ESP32 + DHT22
Build a Wine Cellar Climate Monitor with ESP32 & DHT22 Kit
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Whether you’re aging a fine Cabernet or simply curious about environmental monitoring, this kit turns an ESP32 into a wireless sentinel for your wine cellar. Every 60 seconds, it reads temperature, humidity, and ambient light, then posts the data to ThingSpeak’s free cloud platform. A live chart on your phone shows trends so you can ensure ideal storage conditions—no programming experience needed.
What You'll Build
You’ll assemble a compact circuit on a breadboard, connect the DHT22 and light-dependent resistors (LDRs) to the ESP32, and flash a pre-written Arduino sketch. Within a couple of hours, you’ll have a fully functional climate monitor that continuously uploads data. Open your phone’s browser, log into ThingSpeak, and watch temperature, humidity, and light intensity update as numbers and graphs. It’s like having a personal sommelier that never sleeps.
What You'll Learn
- How to wire and read a DHT22 digital temperature-humidity sensor over a single data pin
- Configuring the ESP32’s built-in Wi-Fi to connect to a home network and send HTTP requests
- Logging analog sensor data from LDRs to measure ambient light levels
- Setting up a ThingSpeak channel and creating public/private visualizations for remote monitoring

Who This Kit Is For
This kit is designed for young makers (5-15) and absolute beginners who want a rewarding first IoT project. It aligns perfectly with CBSE Class 11-12 computer science practicals, ATL Tinkering Lab challenges, and Smart India Hackathon junior tracks. B.Tech ECE/EEE students will also appreciate the real-world data logging application. If you’ve ever wanted to see a live dashboard of your wine cellar conditions on your phone, this is your gateway to cloud-connected electronics.
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?
Simply scan the QR code included in the box to chat with our AI build companion. You can also reach our support team on WhatsApp for real-time help.
Do I need a wine cellar to use this kit?
Not at all! The monitor works anywhere—your kitchen, pantry, or even a plant terrarium. The wine cellar theme adds a fun, practical context to learn IoT data logging.
Can I see the data on my phone without installing an app?
Yes. ThingSpeak is a web-based cloud platform. Once you set up the channel, just open any browser on your phone and view the live charts instantly.
How do I power the monitor inside a cellar that may not have a USB outlet?
The kit includes a micro USB cable that you can connect to any standard USB power adapter or a power bank. For long-term use, a simple 5V phone charger works perfectly.
Wine Storage — DHT22 and LDR data posted to ThingSpeak free cloud every 60 seconds. Live chart visible on phone.
