I am getting ready to buy a digital temp control (Debating on Ranco vs. Johnson) along with the thermowell upgrade.
My question is do you guys use your kegerator as a means to control fermentation temps? If so how well does that work for you? I worry about raising the temp on the kegerator and then having warm beer for a few days. My kegerator holds 4 cornies. When I cold crash I can fit two cornies and the carboy or bucket.
My other consideration is that colder temps are drawing near so maybe I just keep using a swamp cooler for a few more beers and buy the fermwrap for the winter.
I would like to build a fermentation chamber but right now have no place to put one.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
