Hello all,
I just fired up my chest freezer with a Johnson temperature controller for the first time today and currently have a yeast starter in there, and it's not working right. I set the temp to 65 deg F, with a diff of only 1. It kicks in at 65 and then cools it below 55 before cutting off. I've checked it several times and it's been reading anywhere between 65 and 54. What is going on? The temp should kick off when it hits 64 right?
Please help. If I'm having a temperature variance of over 10 degrees im not going to be able to ferment well.
Thanks!
