CELLA DI LIEVITAZIONE - COME REALIZZARLA

Hello everyone today a short video that you all really asked me for I'll tell you how I built this small fermentation chamber that is helping me a lot Some of you have seen it in an Instagram story and have asked me many questions about it It is a very simple fermentation chamber to make quite rudimentary and tha It is only heating for now so it is not able to cool But to build it I have chosen elements that I can then use again later e moment when I want to build a cell that is also able to cool so To completely control the temperature both heating and cooling Obviously we are still in winter so the only heating is It's more than good and as I told you the implementation is rather simple What could it be used for right now Beh for example of all those products that need the oven turned off with the light o To reach the famous 27-28 degrees For example for those who have a very cold house maybe they live in the countryside in the mountains and The house can't reach 18 degrees so the fermentations are started a bit earlier which can help us I am using it a lot right now for managing the sourdough starter e moment when it needs an environment around 27-28 degrees sometimes even 30 degrees and how you I can convert it later using the elements I have purchased Changing some things even the casing in a cell that also cools so that it completely controls the temperature Perfect let's start by seeing what is needed to build this rather simple heating and proofing cell I will provide all the links to the small items I purchased on Amazon so you can have a complete list Therefore the cell the chamber is simply a plastic container You can find them pretty much everywhere in home goods stores and they are fairly inexpensive around 5-6 euros Then we will need a heating cable which is the engine of this whole little machine And this is the black one you see here at the bottom it's just a single electrical cable through which it passes The heat will rise and warm up and thus will also warm our environment our cell The thermal insulation material which is what you see here on the walls this color I then placed this small elevation so that the containers would fit properly Do not let them come into direct contact with the sea the dough or anything else they may be With the cable which is obviously heating it would be very hot and would exceed the desired temperature And most importantly it's the mind of this small system this little device here which is a temperature controller How does it work As you can see here there are two displays one indicates the temperature we want to reach For example 30°C and the other indicates the current temperature which is currently 21.6°C This device controls two outlets one is the heating outlet and in this If there is a heating cable connected and the other is a cooling port It's empty right now because as I told you the chamber can only heat at the moment And this is exactly the future setup I was talking about that is a thermostat so that it can control both heating and cooling so that at the mome In which we would like to transform this small cell into cooling and therefore control In total we will be able to reuse it and it will not have been a wasted investment Then depending on the selected temperature and the ambient temperature thermosta It will decide whether to turn the heating and cooling on or off to reach the selected temperature How do you intend to measure the temperature By means of this probe that I have placed here and that obviously measures the temperature inside It controls the temperature and then tells thermostat whether to turn the heating or cooling on or off The realization is really very simple if you start from a box we already have practically a chamber I turned the box over and then on the lid of the box then on the inside of the box lid I went to place a part of thermal insulation on top of which I placed These small adhesive hooks through which I then threaded the heating cable This one in particular that I used is 6 meters long and so I basically passed it twice I made a small opening on the back of the chamber to pass the heating cable through Then insert and remove the heating cable inside the box through the three walls I have glued the heat-insulating material on the inside of the box and on the bottom it is a heat-insulating material The termoriflettente then a thin layer insulates the chamber and on the other side also reflects The heat which will help us reach the selected temperature faster and maintain it a bit longer over time He drilled a small hole on the upper surface of the chamber where He inserted the probe the probe that practically measures the temperature inside the chamber It controls thermostat so as I was saying it's a pretty simple system The basic one which is easy to implement and at least for heating purposes This moment is quite efficient and the most important thing I advise you to do is It is about choosing a thermostat with cooling so that the cost is reasonable More consistent is the expense that you can use Even when you want to upgrade your cell and make it a cooling cell there is controlled temperature What is the limit of this so little technological cell or as we might say a bit primitive one It's that when heating there are times when it slightly exceeds the selected temperature This is because we select for example 27 degrees the heating cable then heats up It warms up the entire environment and when it reaches 27 degrees thermostat will turn it off perfectly But at the moment when he turns it off the wire does not become cold instantly for a certain time It will still be hot then warm and gradually it will cool down this is called inertia From the heat here it is still warm or slightly warm then it will cool down it will continue to warm up a bit The chamber will then reach 26 degrees due to the cable's inertia something more then slowly it will start to go down this limit can be exceeded The moment when there is also an element that can cool down and thus completely control The temperature but in winter despite this small mistake it can really come to us very very Useful Perfect I hope my little cell which is called Celli I didn't give it a name that's a bit Stupid I hope you liked it let me know if you try to make it if you need anything Some advice or a small help I remind you that in the description you can find the links to be able to Buy all the items needed to build this small cell and have fun see you in the next video goodbye
