Son of Fermentation Chiller Plans?

It seems Ken Schwartz site is no longer up, so I can't find them... anyone know where else to look?

Thanks very much

No problem...I used those plans several weeks ago and built a SOFC for myself.

Here is a link for SOFC's Mama... Ya know, just in case...

Mother of a Fermentation Chiller

Alright, maybe I'm just stupid, but I can't make sense of the section about indoor/outdoor thermostat setup. Can someone please list, very simply, where each part goes? Something like "The outdoor probe goes _____; the indoor probe (which I assume is attached to the thermostat itself) goes _____;". Also, why is it necessary to have both indoor and outdoor sensors? Wouldn't it suffice to just measure the "indoor" temperature inside the chiller and turn the fan on until it reaches the set temp?

the outdoor probe goes inside, against your fermenter. the indoor probe usually is part of the unit that tells the temperature, it stays outside the chiller.

those thermometers are used to tell indoor/outdoor temps from inside. for instance, you would put the thermometer next to your window and put the "outdoor" probe outside the window.

that help?

Halfway. Now where is the thermostat, and how do I get it to run the fan hoping to equalize the "outdoor" (inside the chiller) temperature with my chosen setting?

you are confusing the thermostat with the indoor/outdoor thermometer.

the thermostat is used inside the unit to control your fan.

the thermometer is used simply to monitor the temperature of your fermentation.

Oooooooh. Got it. Yea, I was thinking the two were linked somehow. Thanks for the help. I think I'm going to build one today!
