Get yourself a mashmaster temperature controller with a stainless probe that sits in the wash. Connected to your heater or fridge. Set the temp and forget. To easy. Best investment ever.

Plus1they are the best
Also the ss aquarium heater

hey mate

I use an electric bed blanket on my drum with a doona around it and on the lowest of 3 settings it stays at about 24 degrees this time o year in my shed. I have the $5.00 inside outside household temp guage from bunnings and I just put the probe in the wash thru the lid (airtight seal) and It gives me the wash temp and the shed temp on the same guage.

If there is one thing I could not live without its my mashmaster temp controller. It should be the first investment. Nothing is better then getting home and seeing your beer/wort sitting perfect.

STC-1000 is better :teasing-neener:

[stillts]

with the fish tank immersion heaters can you still seal the fermenter? do you need to drill a hole for the power cord?

how many watts for a 200L barrel?

[bluc]

Immersion heaters while used often successfully can burn the mash/wash.
On 200l if you start on warm side 25-30c and insulate it should finish fine.

thanks Bluc. Looks like it's time to get a fermenter upgrade! :)
