I was wondering if anyone had any good cheap idea's for regulating the temp on a fementer. I am going to brew in my basement and i can't keep it warm down there. Any suggestions?
I put my fermenter in an Igloo cooler, and surround it with water and use an aquarium heater to keep it at 66 or so. It depends on what I'm making- my Irish Draught was fermented cooler, my Tongue splitter a bit warmer. It works well for me!
Yesterday I put some 70 degree water in my cooler with a aquarium heater. the heater has yet to come on, and my water temp after 18 hours is holding @ 66.
I put my fermenter in it @ 9:00 pm last night. My first ever batch btw. Wish me luck!
how long do those stick on thermometers last? Several washings? One washing?
