Good morning folks, I'm currently trying to figure out how I'm going to control my fermentation temps.
My question is: How long does the temp need to be controlled? Is it just through primary fermentation (so a week or two), or should it be longer?
I have a fridge I'm hoping to gut and use, but it'll only hold one bucket, which means I can only brew as often as I can rotate out. My hope was that keeping the temp controlled for 1-2 weeks was long enough for most yeasts.
Similarly, if primary fermentation is done, is higher temps going to mess with the beer? My house gets up around 75 during the summer, and no basement. It's already given me problems this summer, so trying to figure out a brewing schedule that will keep me hydrated with good beer
Thanks!
