Hello everyone!
I am just about to attempt my first brew (just waiting on a few things coming) and I feel suitably prepared. I would just like to ask a question about temperature control during the fermentation. As I'm sure everyone in the UK & Ireland are quite aware it is a wee bit cold at the mo, so I am wondering if anyone has any tips for keeping your batch at good temperature. Unfortunately I can't keep my radiators on full blast all day for 3 weeks, so I was thinking about wrapping it up snug in a blanket and keeping it somewhere cosy and I've bought a thermometer to keep an eye on the temp. Does temperature play a huge part in the quality of the beer?
Thanks! :
