I have a new 7cu GE chest freezer and recently finished up wiring my STC-1000 to turn it into a fermentation chamber. Will be a bit nicer than my giant swamp cooler (spare bath tub) I've been using for the past 4 years. I plan to put the temp probe of the STC next to one of the fermenting buckets, and wanted to see what you guys think is the best way to #1. insulate the probe and #2. attach it to the bucket.
I've read everything from paper towels, hand towels, ice packs (thawed) with the blue goo in them, bubble wrap, etc. for insulation. I have access to all of that, but not sure what to use. I also have a bungee cord that fits, pretty tightly, around my fermenting bucket. Thinking of using that to hold everything in place. But I see a lot of guys tape everything to their buckets.
Thanks for the advice!!
