Fermentation Fridge, fan forced vs static

[Stokesy]

We have had 39 for the last couple of days but I would say an average would be somewhere around the low 30 /high 20's. I do have a lot of insulation though and solar power which I get 66c /kWh, I got $49 credit this last bill.

Unfortunately for us the last week has been in the 50's ( house thermometers not the news temps) my split in the flat is just holding up, the fermenters are around 20, im not to concerned as we are getting a cool change tonight, it's only 41 tomorrow.

im getting solar this year which will be a big help but the rebates are pretty ordinary.

I'll put a another split in the flat in a bedroom and reduce the amount of area to be controlled, this should keep my brewing going at full speed until i fill all the kegs, 17 × 50 litre, then i can have a break.

Happy brewing [emoji482][emoji482]

Solar is a plus, get as many panels as you can then get some batteries, here in Vic Danny Boy Andrews is giving batteries subsidised at half price. 2024 is when my contract finishes so I will be getting my half price batteries. But wait, Shorten will get in next election, see what he will be giving away with regards to solar, they love dishing out other peoples money.

I got a cheapie all fridge, no fan off gumtree. Just wired in my own PC fan rig. Works a treat. They run constantly.
