Temperature Converter
Convert Celsius and Fahrenheit, then see how your temperature range affects fermentation speed and safety.
Fermentation data is shown in both deg C and deg F for quick reference.
Fermentation impact: Balanced
Steady fermentation pace with reliable acidity and flavor development.
Ideal for most vegetable ferments.
Fermentation Temperature Zones
Very cold
Fermentation nearly stalls. Expect sluggish activity and longer timelines.
Cool and slow
Slower acidification and crisp texture. Expect a longer ferment.
Balanced
Steady fermentation pace with reliable acidity and flavor development.
Warm and fast
Fast fermentation. Flavor develops quickly, texture can soften.
Very warm
Too warm for most ferments. Risk of mushy texture and off flavors.
