OK, being that I'm new I'd better come clean. I'm kind of a tightarse....now don't get me wrong, if I need it I'll get it, but eventually.
This brings me to my current problem - I need to control a fridge temperature to allow a good ferment (10-15 degrees) but I want to do it (for now anyway) with an electrical timer. The one that I bought can be set at 15minute increments for a full 24hours, so my thought was to set it to 'on' for 15mins every two hours. (your thoughts......)
Has anyone else used this method and if so, were the results OK or did the beer suffer from being up and down (albeit within a safe range) in terms of temp rather than an even 12/18/whatever +/- 1 through using a growarm/fridgemate etc...
Thanks
Ben
