Hi,
Thanks for a good solution. Im trying to connect a Meater 2 Plus in the same way but I only see Meater firmware and RSSI. The tip temperature, ambient and battery level does not appear. Any idea what to do next? Do I need to change anything else than the MAC-adress?
Big thanks in advance...

Hi! Any findings on this? I have the same issue.

I had the same issue with my Meater SE.
Look at the esphome's logs, you'll see erros as "a75cc7fc-c956-488f-ac2a-2dbc08b63a04" service uiid isn't found.

Then based on this comment

One suggestion is to run the code below to scan for new devices.

# Example configuration entry for finding Service UUIDs, iBeacon UUIDs and identifiers
esp32_ble_tracker:
  on_ble_advertise:
    - then:
logger:
  level: VERY_VERBOSE

You can scan your BT devices, find your meater probe, and the exposed uiid.
On my side the working service uiid is "49141A23-307F-4E25-AD82-0A3F00D8B90B".

So from the above given config, I replaced the 3 "a75cc7fc-c956-488f-ac2a-2dbc08b63a04" by "49141A23-307F-4E25-AD82-0A3F00D8B90B", since I receive well the temperatures.

And i made another change to the default config too, addition of "device_class: TEMPERATURE" for the 2 temperatures sensors. Otherwise we can't select them on ha fields expecting a temperature.
