Hi guys!
I am just starting my first batch and have a VERY rookie temperature question. I am using the True Brew Amber Ale kit. I got it into the fermenter last night and it is bubbleing away happily this afternoon. The initial S.G. is 1.042.
My question is this: I have it located in my basement which is very stable temperature wise. The stick on thermometer is reading 57-58 degrees. I have a couple other locations in the house where I could locate the fermenter. The other spots would be warmer, but not as steady. The first floor would mean air temperatures between 60 and 72, the second floor would be between 60 and 74. I am worried that the basement is too cool, but that the other locations are not consistant enough.
Should I move the fermenter? Any advice would be appreciated!
