Fridge for fementing larger

[MikeW]

Hi All,
Would like to bew my first all grain Lager.
Fermenting at 13 deg is going to be an issue for me.
Can I simply put my FV with its heated water jacket in a fridge and use an inkbird to control both without any mods to the fridge's thermostat?

Cheers,
Mike

I suspect that would work. I have never had to modify the thermostat on either my keezer, kegerator or fermentation fridge. As long as the heated jacket fits in, I imagine it would be fine (I'm not sure how big they are or how they work).

I'd say so...the heater and fridge will just cycle on and off to keep temp.
