I am going to be purchasing the Johnson Controls A419 temp controller for my spare refrigerator in my garage. In the summer it will be easy to control the temp because I just have to plug the fridge into it. But in the winter, I want to switch to the heat mode and heat the inside of the fridge. I assume that a heating pad of some kind would work well for this, but most of what I have been seeing are heating wraps/belts for the outsides of pails/carboys. Is there a better way? Should I be staying away from something that is in direct contact with my fermentor and just worry about controlling the temperature withing the space the fermentor is in? Any equipment suggestions?
