So I've been putting my ale pales in the basement to ferment because it maintains a steady temperature..~67*F. But the wort can get up to 70-72*F while fermenting.
Reading on here, fermentation temps seems to be one of the biggest variables that needs to be controlled. I do have a fridge and johnson controller I could use (I'd have to put my bottles elsewhere)...is that my best option for getting optimal fermentation temperatures? Or should I not really worry about it, since my beers all ferment and are decent (decent, not amazing, but that could be due to not hitting my mash temps that well). Thanks!
