Hi,
So, I started my fermentation in a closet that can get cold at night so I wrapped the bottle in bunch of jackets. The fermentation started in about 12 hours and lasted around a week (its an Irish Red from an extract kit). Now it's just finishing its 14 day process.
My question is have any of you in the colder climates wrapped the carboy in blankets and jackets to keep it warm and have you had good results? Or am I just hosed?
Keeping the carboy upstairs is a bad idea because of our toddle who will somehow find it since he finds everything.
Thanks,
Dave
