    swamp cooler temp question

    With my current set up using the swamp cooler it is a struggle to get the temp to stay consistently below 60 degrees. I have a brew going now with some nottingham and have been trying my best to ferment it at 55 F. As often as I can I swap out frozen water bottles with it, but the temp...
