Really though, it works out pretty well, my home is always between 70 and 75 depending upon the season, which is pretty much right on track for fermenting red wines as well as conducting MLF. So the wine sits in fermenters in there for a week or so, gets pressed and carboyed to MLF for a short period of time, then into the wine room at 60 F. Pretty much everything else happens in the wine room, so it's not too intrusive. Whites get fermented in the wine room and don't impose at all on the house. Good thing is that my wife really enjoys the wine, so she tolerates the slight imposition. BTW, I do occasionally splash a little drop or two of wine, a spray of KMS solution on the spot completely removes the red wine stain. I do the same on my barrels when I have splashes or overflows.</blockquote>
