I know, you're all jealous, but here's my dilemma.
Due to the holidays and visiting family, SWMBO moved the mini fridge fermentation chamber out of the house to the UNHEATED garage. It's been staying in the low to mid 30s in there. Great for the lagering faze, not so much for the initial ferment.
My question is, can I use a brew belt (or other heating device) to bring the temps up to the 50-55 degrees I need for the ferment? I have a temp controller, so I can control max temps, I just want to make sure a brew belt can provide enough heat to make it to the minimum temperatures before starting a batch.
Thanks in advance for the advice.
