Hi,

I've been thinking about this one for a couple of days. I was hoping that you guys could help me get some clarity.

I was hoping to have more than one batch in my ferm chamber, for example, can I have a beer in secondary, and still put a new batch, that is actively fermenting in the same chamber? Should I keep mt temp probe connected to the "old" beer?

I'm guessing using the same yeast strains plays a factor.

any thoughts/suggestions?

Thanks
 
You only really need temperature control for the active part of the ferment, say the first 3 to 5 days. After that you can have your fermenters sitting at room temperature until they are ready to bottle. With that you could do a batch every 5 days and not have to worry.
 
That covers ales. Lagers are somewhat different but by the time you decide you really want to do a lager, I expect you would know how to do one.
