I ferment in a SSBT brew bucket and installed a thermo well in the lid.
All settings are 1 degree. Once fermentation starts I normally experience a 2 degree temp swing but today I see a 5 degree swing. I don't use any type of heating but looking for ways to prevent that much of a swing.
For those using the brew bucket and itc 308 do you see a large temp swing? Would insulating the bucket help?
The temp swing is below my set point. Ex: my temp is set at 68 with a 1 degree differential. So the carry over went 5 degrees below my set temp which I've never experienced before.
