Hey all,
I'm just finishing up with my first homebrew which is from a red ale kit and so far so good (hopefully it doesn't taste like ass), plan on bottling this weekend. Now that I've got this one ready to bottle I'm getting the itch to start my second one... but temperatures out here are starting heat up.... I'm right outside of Phoenix in Goodyear AZ and even though I don't let my house get too hot, I just know from my last couple years out here it just gets hot : / .... I've read some posts on keeping things cool on your fermenters, but was hoping to find if anyone out there had anything that could stay anywhere from the 75 to 83 range (beer recipe wise) that I don't have to constantly concern myself with keeping the house cool enough to make sure it was ok... I'm busy with alot of things right now, and don't have the time or resources to put together a solid cooling system for my homebrew. I guess what I'm asking for may be impossible but..
- something that is lighter almost lager like (even if it's an ale)
- fermenting time doesn't matter to me... I'm pretty patient
- maybe a setup for my spare bathtub to keep it at the right temps
Thanks all for any help
