What size/brand UPS should I use for my fermentation chamber?
It appears that the power to my fermentation chamber is tripping slightly. When this happens it resets my STC-1000 back to the beginning of the cycle. Since I set my temp for primary fermentation it's not really a concern of bad beer, it just sucks that when it happens I have to go down, manually change the temp on the right day to raise/lower it appropriately. Why have a programmable STC-1000 if there is no need to program?
So here is my thought: get an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) to maintain limited power to the freezer/heating pad/STC-1000 in order to make sure that my fermentation stays on schedule. I would like anyone's thoughts on size of UPS or brand, as well as thoughts on other ways to fix this.
From what I can tell the power's not going out for long (a couple seconds) but it's enough to reset the STC-1000 back to the beginning of the programmed setting. It's a Brews By Smith STC-1000 setup.
Thanks,
