Where do you brew your brew?

We ferment under the stairs. Nice and dark, and in the centre of the house so temp is fairly constant. Though with a couple beers on at once the gurgling can get to be a bit much!

Finally got the time today

First the empty Fermenter



Adjust to the desired temp and stick the aquarium heater to the bottom of the fermenter. Mine is adjustable from 18c to 32c.



Here is a side shot of the rack I used about 75mm tall I think it came from a combi Microwave/Grill



I place this on the bottom of the fermenter and fill to about 50mm about the rack and put the real fermenter in on top.
I look for the water to come up close to the level of the wort. You may need a floor cloth as you might get some overflow or splashes


I then sit it on a piece of cardboard and wrap it up in a blanket or sleeping bag.
It takes up no extra room so ideal for a small place like mine (no room for an extra fridge)
