+Default Filter
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+By default, esphomelib takes an average over the last 15 values before publishing updates.
+This was done in order to automatically decrease sensor noise.
+Therefore if you have an ``update_interval`` of 15 seconds, you will only see the values
+every 3 and a half minutes or so. To disable the default filter and publish all raw values
+directly, put an empty ``filters:`` block in your configuration:
