Fermentation chamber help
Posted: Tue May 15, 2012 4:18 pm
I have 2nd fridge in my garage that I use to store bottles and a keg with a picnic tap (plus other food). I'd love to have another fridge to ferment in, but I don't have the space. I need to keep running my garage fridge at regular refrigerator temps.
My plan is to get a fermwrap, carboy parka and a Johnson controller so that I can ferment in this fridge. The fermwrap is supposed to be able to raise the carboy up to 20 degrees, more if insulated. The parka should help keep the carboy warm and help to prevent the fermwrap from affecting the ambient temperature.
Does anyone have a similar setup? I'd love some feedback before I spend the money. Thanks!
