Ok here is the problem. I want to brew larger but I only have my flat, no garage space or anything. I know I need to keep the fermentor at 13 degrees until it is fermented, then transfer to a secondary fermentor for a month or so for secondary fermentation. Finally bottle and again leave for a month or so to mature at low temperature. That is the 'classic' way to brew larger. The problem is my girlfriend in the flat doenst like ti cold, so we will probably have the heating on when the ambient temperature of the UK drops to 13 deg C or below.

Is there anything I can do to brew great larger at home while keeping my girlfriend warm enough through the autumn and winter?
 
You could build a heated PID temperature controlled cupboard to put your girlfriend in, just put a tubular heater in the bottom and set to 28 deg C she will be fine, but don't forget to fit it out with an IPOD, telephone,19" Flat screen TV and a box of milk tray,or she might come out and disturb the yeasties, .

Then leave your heating off and brew larger to your hearts content.
