hi to everyone from S.Florida

[biermann1]

after experimenting a lot with "swamp cooling", I finally decided to go for it.
I am limited to Belgian Ales because of the temperatures here but that's fine. I am done buying beer and enjoy brewing.

Welcome.
(Maybe you can brew other styles in the winter.)

I make lagers all year round. I'm in FL. You can do it if you want to.

Welcome to the forum. I'll be watching for you to post your progress.

Where at in South florida?

 

[biermann1]

I am in Miami.
What the temperatures are concerned I can get down to 70 F with a strong fan blowing at my "wet t-shirt carboy". Without fan around 73 F.
My next brew will be a german wheat beer. See how it turns out.

dont worry about it, I regularly ferment inside my house which averages the fermentation temperature in the upper 70s

Are you using ice bottles in the water bath? If not, try it.
