Fermention heater

[Steven9026]

Just came across this. It's another option to heating your fermentation chambers. I thought I would share it with everyone. Some might find it useful for their setup. Sorry about the misspelled word in the title. didn't notice it until I posted it and can't figure out how to change it

Ah, the old light bulb under a coffee can trick.

Yep, Same old thing , just in a package for those who would rather spend money, or not build one.

I did like the ceramic 'lightbulb' element.
I wonder if they are available separately for a standard socket from a bulb supplier?
It would be nice to vent a coffee can which contained light-less heat.

I use water bath and fish tank heater/Ranco controller with glass carboys.
I am hesitant to use just an air filled chamber like you suggest.
I believe the water bath to be more stable, but haven't tried the other...

Yes,the bulbs are available from alot of places. Prices run from 16.00 up depending on the wattage. Check your local pet store. Most stock the bulbs.
