This has probably been covered already.

When building a fermentation chamber most people use rigid foam with an R value of about 5.
What about using fiberglass which has a rating from 19 to 30?
 
You get R19 at 6" of fiberglass. Foam would be around R15 then.

Sure you can use fiberglass as long as you keep it dry. Don't use in bottom areas.
