I'm in the same boat. Keeping my 1750's farm house at 70-degrees would make for the most expensive beer in the history of home brewing. I was relegated to keeping my beer in the place with the most consistent temperature - next to y furnace. Through the entire brewing process, the air temp has been in the mid 50's, but the brew remained between 65-67 degrees. Initially, I wrapped my barrel with sleeping bags and had a digital thermometer sensor attached to the barrel. The temperature never dropped below 65 - ever. Now that it's bottled, I have all the bottles in a cooler that I took out of my shed. To bring the temperature up initially, I tossed in a HotHands handwarmer and placed the cooler next to my hot water discharge. The temp has been pretty consistent - remaining in the mid 60's. Every day or two, I toss in another handwarmer, (they're cheap) and the temp rises by a degree or two. My test bottle had plenty of carbonation and the beer is quite tasty...It's all going up into the laboratory fridge on Thursday for some cold time...The man who once lived here was a renowned scientist and there's an old lab in the attic complete with a fridge...Getting close!
