Questions and Answers

The Brew Belt is approx 1" wide and 32" long that wraps around fermenter to increase heat by 5-20° F with 15W. Two different springs (1" or 4") connect the ends to hold onto your carboy, plastic fermenter, or even your conical! For ultimate control of your fermentation temperature, use in conjunction with a stopper thermowell and digital thermostat.

The environment drives the final heat produced, it will need to be kept on longer in the winter than in the summer.

Perfect Temp!

I have had issues in the past with keeping my fermentation at the correct temperature. This brew belt was perfect for me. I used it on my most recent beer and have been extremely impressed. The constant temperature has allowed my beer to obtain over 8% ABV in the first 3 days. I saw other belts on other sites that required a temperature control unit cost a lot more. Couldn't be more pleased.

Warms The Heart

My basement can get a little chilly, so I got this to wrap around my FastFerment conical fermenter. Had to use the long spring, but otherwise wraps nicely around the wide part. Has kept the temps hovering in the 67-70 degree range. Seems to work well. Maybe a bit expensive at $30 for such a simple concept.

Q: Will a brew belt heat a metal wine keg that is in a cooler? Basically raise the temp of the Red Wine.

Asked by: Darryl - 4/20/2016

A: They are typically used for carboys and buckets, both glass and plastic. It would provide somewhat of a heat source, nothing too intense.

Q: Will this fit around and work with the 7.9 gallon large fermenting bucket you sell?

Asked by: Edward - 11/26/2014

A: This item will fit around our 7.9 gallon buckets. Though the belt will not go all the way around the bucket, the larger included spring does allow this belt to attach around the bucket securely.

Q: Can the brewbelt be used on glass carboys?

Asked by: - 3/8/2014

A: The manufacture does not recommend using them on glass. We have had people be successful using them with glass. So use at your own caution.

Q: if brew belt is used without a temp controller will it get too warm ?

Asked by: scott martin - 12/23/2013

A: I guess that depends on what temp, you are looking to keep. I can tell you this belt will not get warmer than 75°.
