Hello Everyone!
I am brewing the grain bag/malt extract kits and using 2 stage bucket/carboy setup and fermenting in a closet in my house. I live in Houston,TX so I keep the temp about 77F in the house so I figure the closet is a little cooler.
I mainly like to brew APA but have brewed some red ales and a great chocolate ale. (I really want try to make a Christmas ale this season!!!)
These have all been pretty good but I want to get better and was wondering if I should take more control over the fermenting temp? I have a sanyo fridge I use for my keg and could get a electronic temp control to get me closer to recommended temps for the yeast. Would this make a difference that one would notice?
Or should I just move foreword to all grain
