Our house is quite cold, so we have previously had trouble getting wine yeast to ferment. Having put this band on our fermentation bin three days ago, yesterday the wine started bubbling away merrily, and shows no sign of stopping! The band was easy to put on, and had instructions for fastening via the reinforced holes for larger vessels, like ours. I now know why our fermentation bin has a couple of indentations around it - it's made with this type of heating belt in mind. While there are cheaper belts listed, this was the cheapest which met UK safety standards (double cable insulation) - really important since this is on all night. The material feels good quality, and I expect that it will last. I am really pleased with it already!

I've had this on for a week now and it sends to work. I was skeptical as to how it would perform, worrying it might overheat itself, overeat one part of the brew, etc. But all seems good...its bubbling away nicely. Its in an unheated room (ambient about 10 degs) and every time I've checked the fermentation thermometer it is showing a healthy 20 degs.

Highly recommended. Does exactly what it's supposed to. The good thing about heat belts as supposed to heat mats, is you can adjust the temperature by raising the belt up or down the fermentation bin. This eradicates the need to spend around the same or more again, for an extra thermostatic device. I fastened mine about two-thirds of the way up to keep a constant 25C. Worked a treat. Seems well made and built to last. A great little purchase.

I used this on my 33 ltr bucket and had no need to add a thermoneter to maintain the temperature of 24 degrees left it attached and on permanently. I checked it a couple of times and it was absolutely fine.

Great item, used it to keep my beer at the correct temperature at night. Good value and easy to use, would recommend.
