KEEPING YOUR FERMENT COOL

Narelle Pearce • Jan 24, 2019

With the SUMMER HEATWAVE upon us….you will never lose a batch of beer to high temperatures again!

Now you can control your brewing Temperature WITHOUT a fridge! One of our wholesalers (Brewcellar) is now the exclusive Australian distributor for the Cool Brewing Fermentation Cooler.... and we stock them here at All Things Brewing

Why do I need to keep my wort cold while fermenting?
Temperature control has a major impact on the flavor of the finished beer. Fermenting above the desired temperature range can produce fruity off flavors, esters and harsh fusel alcohols.

Will my fermenter fit in the Cool Brewing Fermentation Cooler?
15/25/30 litre Ampi fermenters will fit in the Fermentation Cooler. (a 60ltr Ampi will fit in the Fermentation cooler but will need an external airlock)

How do I keep my Fermentation Cooler cold?
Simply add ice or cold packs. We like to use frozen 2L bottles of water.

How much ice does it take to lower fermentation temperatures?
The amount of ice needed will vary based on individual circumstances, however as a rough guide for a 20 litre batch, one 2 litre bottle of ice will lower a fermenting wort an average of 2.8 degrees for 24 to 36 hours before the ice thaws completely.

Plenty of room for 2L bottles of ice

How do I take samples while my fermenter is in the fermentation cooler?
There is a sample flap at the front which you can unzip to check the progress of your fermentation.
