Can I just set the temp in a fridge to 45-50 F or will fridges not go that high?
Will I need a temp controller?
The reason being is that I purchased a cream ale kit from my LHBS.
Still a noob and for my second batch I want to try steeping.
I thought that since it's an ale I could just ferment at room temp.
When I read the recipe it says primary ferment for 7-9 days
at 55-75 F and then to ferment for 2 weeks at 45-50 F.
A couple of calls to some buddies and I can probably get a fridge for
cheap or free. (might buy one, too.)
And then can I use the fridge to lager ferment later?
