I am building a fermentation chamber using an upright freezer, and a Ranco ETC-211000-000: 2 Stage Prewired Temperature Controller (ETC-211000-000W)
Wire Gauge 16ga - Standard (13 Amps/1500 Watts) (pre-wired because I have little to no electrical skills. Heating element is still to be determined.
The fermentation chamber will be built onto the freezer via 2x4s and insulation (haven't decided exactly which type yet - suggestions?)
My main questions now are, how important is it to use a moisture barrier in a set up like this? What type of moisture barrier is recommended? And, how-where should it be installed?
Thank you all for your help.
