By using a stick-on thermometer (or better yet, a probe thermometer in the liquid itself, like a ThermoWell), you eliminate the need to care about the temp difference in the surrounding environment. Different kinds of fermentations throw different amounts of heat, (as low as 2-3 degrees F, or as high as 14-15), so its better to just measure the temp of the wort than to try to plan how cold to get the surrounding liquid or air. | |

Jun 4, 2013 at 13:23 | comment | added | GHP | The "Swamp Cooler" mentioned above is the best way to cheaply/easily regulate the carboy's temp. I would just add that you need to stick a thermometer strip onto the carboy right above the water line. Then, add enough frozen bottles to keep the carboy thermometer strip reading a constant 65F for most ales. | |
