hey...i want to make a beer like carlton draught/cold etc,most beers like that need to be fermented below 20*c and 10-15*c if possable..how could i do that....i have just botteld my first beer and the fermenter temp was 24*c
 
Does it use an ale or lager yeast? You can feel free to come over and brew here, my house is usually between 10-15c.
You could try putting your fermenter in a big bucket of water with a bit of ice, or build a cooler box with styrofoam.
 
You could try sitting the fermenter in a bath of cold water and wrapping a cold wet towel over it to keep it cool, or make a insulated cupboard for the fermenter with a peltier cooling system if you are feeling really adventurous!
