How to use

FAQ

Why not use it in the first 24 hours?

The instructions say not to use it during the first 24 hours of fermentation.

How much warmer will it make my brew?

It depends on batch size and room temperature. It provides a low, constant heat rather than a set temperature.

Can I use it for anything else?

Yes. It also suits seed germination and hydroponics.

Q&A

how much weight can the heat pad take? i cant find any information on this thanks
Hi Ramahl, they are designed for 25-30L fermenters😊
Is this temperature controlled I want for my Kombucha
Hi Angela, this is not temperature controlled, you can use a stick on thermometer on your fermenter to monitor the temperature and adjust accordingly: https://distilleryking.com.au/products/stick-on-thermometer
put my first brew in yesterday, but brew temp down overnight to 10, did see the odd bubble in airlock, but can't turn on heat pad until 12.45 today[ 24hrs ], will this damage my brew, also is it okay to use cling wrap with pin ***** instead of airlock, I last did brewing 30yrs ago and used the visual method so not to disturb the brew, I know times have changed, cheers
Hi Ces, that's fine, when the wash is too cold the yeast goes dormant so you can leave it under temperature as long as you want. When you bring it back up to 15 degrees and over, it will wake up and start fermenting again. For reference, if it gets too hot that's a problem, as if it goes over temperature, the yeast will be killed. And yes if you want to use the cling wrap method that's fine, the airlock is there to make sure nothing from outside gets into the wash but the wash doesn't need to be sealed from the air outside.
Hi, will this heat pad work with a stainless steel fermenter such as Mangrove Jacks craft series home brew kit? Cheers Scott
Hey Scott! It will yes :)
