I have a question for you all! I'm setting up a fermentation chamber. I bought a used mini-fridge, and I will be receiving shortly an Inkbird ITC-308 and a seedling heating mat (https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0001WV010/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20). I ferment in a 6 gallon plastic carboy.
My question: would you place the heating mat at the bottom, having the fermenter simply rest on it, or would you wrap the fermenter with the mat (as shown in the image on Amazon))?
Currently, my basement ambiant air is around 60F, and my first batches fermented a bit low (around 62), so this thing may need to heat a bit during winter months for my ales.
Anybody has experience using a seedling heating mat?
Thanks!
