1. A system for controlling a temperature of a liquid residing within a tank, comprising:

  • at least one temperature sensor configured to detect temperatures of the liquid;

    at least one temperature control element configured to alter a temperature of the liquid; and

    logic configured to automatically establish different temperature thresholds for different time periods based on temperatures detected by the at least one temperature sensor, each of the different temperature thresholds associated with a different one of the time periods, the logic further configured to perform, for each of the time periods, a comparison between a temperature detected by the at least one temperature sensor and the associated temperature threshold and to control the temperature control element based on the comparison.
