After I had a fermentation stall due to cold temperatures I was thinking about putting my FV's in a tub with some water and heating the water with a fish tank heater.
(Brewfridge is not on the cards and I want something quick, easy and cheap!)

I was thinking about one of these. I was hoping to get 2FV's in one tub and a heater in there. I guess a 50w might just about do it.

Anyone had any experience or got any advice?

If you want quick and simple why not just dangle the heater in the FV... but if it's for 2 FVs then the tub might be the easiest way to go: but you'd need a huge tub?

used these same models have beer fridge now
they are good quality no problems with them and good price
a 50 watt one will suffice

I bought the exact product except I went for the 300w version - don't ask me why.
