best method is to get a large bucket your fermenter can fit in and put water in it 3/4 of the way up the wort. throw in frozen water bottles in extreme heat. this uses no energy like a fan
Oh my god thank you for this video. Its very hard for me to get temps right in my apartment so i am constantly modifying recipes for yeast strains that have higher heat tolerances. On average how many degrees can you take off with a swamp cooler?
One of the few advantages to living in Britain is that the mild climate is usually good for at some some form of beer all year round. A method I might try to dampen variation in temp is just placing the fermenter in a garden humper with water.
NorthernBrewer and too hot is your issue? My basement disagrees... ;)

How did you freeze the water bottles?
I am fermenting fruit on the "Keep Warm" function with my crockpot. Will that work??? Get back to me A.S.A.P.

didn't knew we can use an old freezer to store yeast starter, yeast pack and primary carboy.....
NB, your vids are so helpful, esp. for a noob like me. This vid is perfect with summer here.
Thank you very much
