secondary fermentation

Boundaryman

Would you use the Brew Belt from the fermentation bucket around a plastic barrell for the first few days of secondary fermentation during this cold spell whilst there is no heat in the house during the working day.

Thanks..

Don't know what happened to my text but should read.

Yes, that is a good way of getting the secondary fermentation going quickly, just use the Brew Belt wrapped around the barrel and monitor the temperature in the same way as usual if wanted. The same with heater trays, the barrel just stands on them too
