Hello everybody long time lurker thought I better post something
after all every time I run into a problem, I look it up on this forum
and always find an answer so thanks all you distillers ^:)^
I live only an hour from the snowfields so very cold over winter and
had to solve the problem of fermenting in winter and keeping the yeast happy.
My solution was to build an insulated cabinet that I could move around easily and
could hold 2 x 60lr fermenters
I was going to buy 2 cool room panels and cut them up for the build but couldn't find any
reasonably priced ones so got a few sheets of 50mm polystyrene some aluminum sheet,
signwriters color bond and some cord Flute and made my own.
Nothing flash, galvanized base on rollers, removable top and front, 2 powerboards
to run heater pads and heater belts as required or even a low wattage globe.
I had immediate success and it all worked well just have to monitor temps regularly
but the cabinet maintains fairly even temps so one very happy camper here.
Also, a big thank you to Andrew for fantastic service at 5 star
