 Need some advice for my future setup

The current weather is less than 0C right now and I'm planning to place my incubators in my cold garage which is probably less than 0C too.
I need a setup where I can fit 12 fully colonized cakes into a storage container and heat the inside to 25C~ while the temperature outside of the box is really cold.
Any advice?

I'm willing to pay the money to do it now though. That way I can keep on growing when Winter comes again.

I used to have to use a heated incubator because of low temps, too... Never caused me any issues.

How low of temperature were you competing against?
I was thinking of using styrofoam as insulation for the sides of the box.

Oh, it was in the high 50's most of the time. With the tub-in-a-tub, the water acts as your insulator, I kept it between 78-81 degrees F. I've since increased the temperature in my grow room to about the mid to high 60's (typically 65-68) and just let everything cultivate at room temperature. Prior though, the jump from high 50's to high 70's made a HUGE difference in time.
