I just got the inkbird 308 and the 20w heating mat through the awesome offer in the sponsor forum.
I’ve plugged it all in and have set the temp at 68F.
The temp probe in the thermowell is reading 65F, and the 308 indicates the heating mode is on.
It’s been about an hour, and the temp hasn’t budged from 65F. The mat also doesn’t really feel warm to the touch.
Did I get a defective mat, or am I just really impatient?
How quickly should it raise temps? I’ve taped it to the side of the Big Mouth Bubbler. Is there one side or another of the mat that should be facing the carboy?
Thanks All!
