Hi all,
I'm pretty new to home brewing. I've helped a friend brew a couple batches, one from extract and one AG, and I've brewed one extract on my own. My house isn't all that big and my wife doesn't really enjoy my fermentation going on in the spare bedroom. She gave me to go ahead to convert our chest freezer into a fermentation chamber so I'm obviously excited about eventually kegging and adding taps and CO2 tanks. I have the freezer and the temperature control but my freezer is in the unheated garage so I need a heating element.
What should I use? Also I don't really want to start drilling holes into my freezer to run power chords through so I need something with either a thin chord that won't cause too much trouble with the seal or something battery powered.
My freezer has been cleaned and sanitized, please help me get the temp up.
Thanks!
