Just wondering everyone's thoughts on this idea.
I am going to re-purpose a full size fridge that I have at home. In doing so, I was thinking about building in a shelf system that should allow me to ferment at least 4 6 gallon carboys at once. My concern is temp control.
I was wondering if someone has an idea on how to best manage/maintain/monitor the temps in each carboy? I am well versed in the aspect of using Inkbird, or STC or whatever brand you want; but, all those only have 1 temp probe. Now, if I tape/stick that to the side of carboy 1, how do I know carboys 2,3 and 4 are around/at the same relative temp?
Or do I take the approach to put the probe in a soda bottle of water and put that in a centrally located area of the fridge and hope that the carboys all maintain based on that? Or better yet, can multiple probes be used with 1 system and attached to each carboy?
Visuals help if someone has done this but thoughts and ideas are always welcome too. Thanks in advance guys and gals....
