I live in Southern California, and even this time of year the temps in my upstairs condo are around 80F.
I realize that temps in this range can produce some undesired fruity flavors, especially because the fermentor is going to be warmer than the ambient air.
The problem is space. I don't have enough room for a tub to fill with water and ice packs, and I don't have room for a beer fridge. I don't want to leave the AC on all day either, so does anyone have a suggestion on how to get around this problem?
Thanks.
PS: the garage is downstairs and I don't feel like lugging carboys up and down either!
