Temp control setting
« on: November 07, 2018, 07:29:19 am »
   Got my keezer up and running last night. I have the standard Inkbird controller with the probe in a container of water. How many degree temp swing does everyone program their controller for?

I let my temp probe hang so it's measuring ambient air.

Hang it in air, give it 2 degrees above for cooling and 2 degrees below for heat, and beer temperature will remain constant (except for heat of fermentation of course.)
