I got a Mr Beer from my daughter and he husband for Father's Day. Came with two kits. First kit attempt was less than successful. I'm thinking it was because it fermented at 78-80°, because I can't keep my house at 72-74 degrees during a Texas summer.
So I built a fermentation cooler based on Son of a Fermentation cooler with changes, and am trying it out for the first time. I did an STC-1000 controller rather than the thermostat. I also made it slightly smaller because I could not find square edged foam board and had to rip the edged off of tongue and grove foam board.
Beer is in the cooler, and I am really hoping this one works!
Chiller is working fine, BTW, so if this one does not work it's because I am doing something else wrong!
