Hi,
I have purchased and constructed the stc1000 but I am unsure of the following basics.
I live in Qld and at the moment it is common to have 30+ ambient temps.
? Do I plug my fridge into the cooling side and tape the sensor to my fermentor if I want to maintain 18degrees.
? Do I only need the fridge hooked up.
I suppose what im wanting to know is the very basic stuff, like in winter when the temps vary from 26 to 7 degrees do I have a heat source set up as well as the fridge and would I set it to cooling or heating, I'm guessing it must heat as required during the night and cool during the day.
I couldn't find any posts describing the basic setups.
I would appreciate any advice.
Cheers Greg.
