Tested out the new top-up function and it works well. Should improve the accuracy and avoid under-feeding.
The feeder has proven to be inaccurate. Currently set at 55 grams, it sometimes dispenses in the high 30's despite cranking the same amount of time.
If the feeding weight X is less than the configured setting Y, where Y-X is greater than some threshold (5 or 10 grams?), dispense an additional Y-X grams of kibbles and weigh again. The top up would likely be a new event type for the log system.
