Question about transporting fermenter

[brewster13]

So I brewed number 2 the other day and realized that brewing on my electric stove sucks and takes forever. Here is my question I have another kit to brew and would like to do it on a gas stove. My grandmother lives about 5 miles from me. Will I be ok to brew at her house then transport my fermenter to my house? I live in new york and it is in the mid 30's outside but it is only like a 5-7 min drive. Would this effect my beer in any negative ways?

It will be fine. I don't think your yeasties will complain that the added shaking keep them in suspension more and the temperature shouldn't drop too much in that short of time. Just don't drop it!

A bunch of us do it all the time at our group brewday sessions.

+1 on aeration.

I've brought home wort from group brews at OSU and that's 65 miles. People have brewed at Hop Madness and taken the wort home the next day. Definitely not a problem.

Be sure to use a plastic fermenter, not glass.

That is good news. Yes I am using a plastic fermenter. I think I shall brew tom then. Thanks guys
