So I did a quick search on this forum and online but the results didn't come back as I had hoped... so here we are.
As I have stated before I am REALLY new to all of this so please excuse any stupid questions.
I really want to continue brewing over the summer but I am concerned about temperature control. I live in an upstairs apartment in an old house (late 1800s) in Michigan and it is not uncommon for it to get into the high 80s in my apartment.
The house has an unfinished basement that I was considering using, but it's a little gross down there and I'm not sure how cool it stays down there anyway.
Which brings me to the question at hand....
Should I consider a fermentation chamber or will I be okay for this summer?
If so what is the best way to accomplish this? I started looking into mini fridges but is that the best way? If I go the mini fridge route is there anything I should be looking for?......
In short I guess what I need is a decent rundown on fermentation chambers.
Sorry for the rambling rant.....
Thanks!
