/* 5. Control Fermentation Temperature */
==5. Control Fermentation Temperature==
Though relatively few brewers have dedicated fermentation refrigerators, there are simple methods you can use to maintain a a constant temperature for ales during fermentation. The best technique I've seen is to pick a cool, dry area in your home and then wrap the fermenter in wet towels and place a fan in front of it. Wet the towels every 12 hours or so, and you should get a steady fermentation temperature in the 66-68F range. Most brewing shops sell stick-on thermometers that can be attached to your fermentation vessel to monitor the temperature.
