I'm getting my 1st home kit today (FedEx). It's a 5 Gal kit from. Going to try and start with an IPA.
I guess I should have worried about this earlier.
It's hot and humid here. I have a spare normal size kitchen fridge in my garage that i don't use. My question is, how hard is it to get the fridge to a temp of 60-65? Also, it's in my garage which gets really hot -- is that a bad thing for the fridge? Would this Be a good idea for the carboy/fermenting?
Would it be easier to get a portable A/C and have it blowing on the fermenting area or something? I have a spare room (not the garage) that I would rather keep everything in.
Thanks for any advice.
