At this point, I have to keep my fermenters upstairs in my home because the basement is pretty chilly. The only problem is, I use a wood stove to heat and I keep the thermostat set to 62 during the day.
I keep my fermenters in my kitchen, which I dont use the oven a ton and the kitchen doesnt get over 80 degrees in the winter.
When I get home at night, its chilly in the house, normally around 60 - 64. Then I start the wood stove, and it warms up pretty good. The kitchen normally gets in the upper 70s for a couple hours but thats it.
Are there any negative effects that could happen from this type of temperature swing? I know if its to hot, it will will cause banana type flavors, but I am more interested if it can screw up fermentation or cause any other issues.
