I recently became the new owner of a pretty large laboratory incubator.  It has a stainless steel interior with a few racks, and heats anywhere from ambient to 70C.  It appears to use a PID, as it holds temperature to .1C.

 

I'm considering using this for a 2nd go at fermenting garlic (currently occupying an insulated cooler with a heating element and temperature controller), but I'm looking for other good uses as well, since the capacity is quite large. 

 

Other best-bets for fermentation in this temperature range?  How about non-fermentation uses of an incubator?
