Hello Hello. Sorry for a new thread on this topic, but I have a brand spanking new chest freezer in my basement and a Johnson A419, which will be delivered today. I am brewing tomorrow, and want to get this right.
Here's the plan:
-Tape probe to glass carboy and cover with bubble wrap, too protect from ambient temp in freezer. This should give me a fairly close reading as to what the temp of the wort is. Correct?
-If I want to ferment @ 67, Do I set the controller to 67 with a differential of +/- 1??? Current temp inside the freezer (which is unplugged) is 61 degrees.
Advice/thoughts are appreciated.
