Hi All;
I just acquired a Blichmann 14.5 Fermenator.
Has anyone drilled this thing to insert a thermowell? Do people Mount it externally? I have heard of that, but seems like outside temperature may give erroneous readings. What are the thoughts on this?
Also, using a thermal wrap that is activated by a thermowell, it seems hard to fit the typical wraps to the fermentor based on the legs being in the way of the longer wraps. I can see putting this in a keezer for lagering, but am trying to figure out how to best use it with ale fermentation. Any thoughts or pictures would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks! markus.
