I have the Johnson Controls Digital Temperature Controller installed inside a commercial cooler.
Previously I have taped my probe of my johnson probe to the side of my commercial cooler. I have a wireless thermometer, and I can usually see a stable temp (usually a little less than my set temperature on the controller, but not higher).
Recently I saw someone who tapes the probe directly to the side of the carboy.
I tried this, and now an hour later my ambient temperature monitor inside the cooler is reporting a much higher temp- 77F. The controller still reports 65F due to the probe being taped to the cold carboy.
Any recommendations on which method would be better for temperature control?
