(That one uses a secondary relay since the heating pad draws more power than the thermostat can safely switch) Still, there's nothing like being able to note on your recipe that it "fermented at exactly 72 degrees for 6 days"! (It's worth looking for quiet fans, though. Mine are a little noisy...) The one thing I think I left off that page that you’ll probably need is a cheap and easy way to control the fans.
