When people speak of recommended fermentation temperatures, are they referring to the ambient temperature around your fermenter or the temperature inside the fermenter? As I understand it, the temperature inside the fermenter can be about 5 degrees higher during fermentation due to the heat produced by the process. So if you have a suggested temp of 65-68 degrees for an ale, is that 65-68 ambient or 65-68 inside meaning you need the ambient temp a few degrees lower?
