Hi All,
At D&G's G&G BIAB demo a few weeks ago, there was a discussion around using an aquarium heater for keeping ferment temps high enough during cold conditions.
Dan, I thought I heard you say that you use an aquarium heater and that you just submerge it in your fermenter. Is that right?
I'm only asking because I've just been doing some reading and the early running seems to be with putting the heater in a water bath in which the fermenter itself is sitting.
Obviously it would be simpler to put the heater into the fermenter itself - but I don't want to do this unless it's safe to do so.
Any tips?
Cheers
Mike
