Hi Guys,
Thinking about doing a Czech Pilsner; Its the other half's favourite style of beer. I'll be fermenting in the 2nd bedroom of my house where the air temp sits between 10 and 15 degrees (possibly 16 on a warm day) day in day out as the door is always shut and that part of the house is typically closed off. I dont have a fermenting / Largering fridge at the moment as this will only be my 3rd home-brew but would like to give a larger style beer a stab.
Before I go and buy a kit and start on this pilsner, I wanted to see what everybody's thoughts are on that kind of temp fluctuation, I appreciate that the Wort wont go up and down as easily as the air temp; but I would be pretty disappointed if I screwed it up. Prior preparation prevents piss poor performance and all that.
