Hello,
I have been trying to upgrade some of my equipment. I have a conical fermentor with a SS coil inside to control temps. (I know chilling/heating from outside to inside is more efficient / better accuracy, then inside out, but the system is the way the system is).
I did some tests yesterday with cold water in the fermentor running hot water through the coil, and visa versa.
When I put my hand in the water I noticed that there were some great variance in temps from the surface, to inside the coil, to the bottom of the conical.
My question is when I add the probe to read the temp where would everyone think would be best placement, top/bottom/other? I am trying to control both heat and cold if that helps.
