I don't think you get a 5° rise. Seems more like 2-3 for an ale and less for a lager.

After getting my lager primary fridge set up, I figured I would just try to use the controller that came with the fridge instead of a Johnson, etc. I placed a large cup of water in there and checked the temp of it with my Thermapen and eventually got the controller to remain at 47°. It's very close to the warmest setting on the fridge. If primary did generate the accepted 5° of addtional heat, my primaries would be between 47 and 52° which I think is fine. Cheers.

Thanks Ken!

p.s. clean out your PM folder, it must be full :)
