I have never brewed a Belgian and really wanted to put one in the rotation for this year.
I was reading through the recipes for the Belgian's on tis site and noticed that most of them recommend fermenting at 85 degrees and maintaining at a stead temp of around 70 degrees. Currently, I ferement at the temp of the house or if I need to warm I use a space in heater in a small bathroom. I have no way maintaining a constant temp and I'm not certain I could reach 85degrees in the house. Any options? Or should I wait until I finally build a kegerator with temp control?
