Ok, so I bit the bullet and bought a Johnson Controls for freezer temp control. Since then, I've heard of peeps placing the probe in water, wrapped in bubble wrap or similar along side the bucket, in special thermowells, etc, etc, etc.
What is the best way to do this thing? I kinda doubt I'm going to buy a $26 thermowell especially since I use buckets with a hole sized for plastic airlocks and it seems most thermowells come with a stopper sized for a carboy.
In any event, this can't be that difficult a thing so I'm throwing myself at the mercy of those who have been there, done it. I'm a huge fan of tried and true and simplicity if that matters. Thanks for any thoughts and insight.
