Hey Guys,
I've searched the forum, but couldn't find any posts that had exactly the information I was looking for. I just got a fermwrap to warm up my fermentation temperatures and I'm using it with my Johnson A419. My question is, is it better to put the temperature probe between the fermwrap and the carboy, or on the side of the carboy without the fermwrap? I'm leaning towards the side of the carboy without the fermwrap, but I've seen where people do it both ways.
Also, how does everyone insulate the carboy? Is it effective enough/safe to just wrap a blanket around it?
Thanks in advance,
Andy
P.S. The ambient temperature in my basement is 60F right now, and I'm trying to hit 72F if that makes a difference.
