My chinook bolted so early, didnt seem to put much effort into laterals - should still get a decent harvest. DrSmurto could you share your thoughts on a IIPA with these?

ok, any idea on success of growing victoria in qld?

I use my herms setup for sous vide. It seems a waste to cook a steak any other way. Also do chicken wings in marinade for 3hrs at 65.

I bought the Chinook from DrSmurto last season and it did extremely well for me, and I would use the term "somewhat different than commercial" very lightly haha.

Will you have any other varieties later? definitely want some victoria but would rather another to bundle for postage.

the question was in reference to his setup and the ambient temperature of his fridge in comparison to the desired temperature point.

too right mate. this is homebrewing after all.

my reasons are; 1. measuring outside of the FV is imprecise anyway. 2. keeping ambient temp is easy. If you have the probe on the outside of the FV (with some insulation from ambient air as well) then how long does the compressor run and how cold does the ambient temp get before the liquid...

thats good to know, im guessing the heat during fermentation negates the difference of outside temp. tbh ive never monitored during active fermentation in the night and just assumed on a colder night it would also drop inside the fridge. when I setup my equipment, I had tested with an empty...

but also you dont want the temperature to swing each night during the cooler months.

My probe dangles in the fridge so it gets hit with the hot air quite quickly. It is usually only ever running for ~5 seconds. I understand this is quite crude using an STC1000 but I find its working good for me. I never looked into it but I would hope an open circuit to the sensor would stop all...

I use one of these inside the fridge.

Ive been looking on gumtree almost every day for a deal like this... gone so fast.
