Hi everyone. I've been lurking the past few weeks and really learning a lot from everyone. Since it is the slow season for my job I decided to build a couple of projects for my home brewery. First thing I did was build a workbench for the cellar, where I do all of my fermenting and and storing of my equipment and bottled beer.
I also wanted to have better control over my fermentation temps down there so I am in process of building a fermentation chamber that will fit neatly underneath the work bench. I decided to go with the stc-1000 controller because it seemed like a fun and easy build. I'm waiting for some neutrik powerCon connectors to be shipped from markertek that I'm using for my power connections before I can finish the controller.
And here is the chamber so far
I'm going to use 1.5" r max insulation for the inside and I've got an old mini fridge in storage that I'm going to cannibalize for the cooling innards and use a 40 watt ceramic reptile heater lamp for the heating source. I bought an ac fan from my local electronic parts store that I'm going to trigger with a relay.
