Hi everyone,
I am quite new to home brewing but i have now made 3 batches of beer using kits from my local home brew shop which all surprisingly tasted great!
Im ready to take the next step and make beer from a recipe and since i love rogue dead guy i have found a clone recipe I'm going to attempt.
A family friend has given me his unused 60L (15gallons) conical fermentor so i am excited to try using that.
I live in australia so our weather is quite hot at the moment. The recipe says i need to ferment at 16° C (60° F ). Basically i would like to know how i can keep the fermenter at 16° C (60° F ) when room temperature will most likely be around 22° C and higher when we have heat waves.
Also, i have about $300 i have set aside to spend on some more equipment so i am thinking of buying an urn to make my wort, any recommendations? or should i spend the money elsewhere?
Cheers
