Hi Tony, at 2.36am I woke up as I thought things over, as you do at that time of day, I realized that I had not answered your question whether the molasses works in the cooler months.
Yes it does, just a bit slower. As I said in the thread where my tank is shown,(thread #13), "This solution is not an acid in any way, what removes the rust is a type of algae which feeds on oxygen." The main thing you must do to keep the algae active is give it some rust to work on and add a bit of fresh water now and then.
Hope this helps.(I did wait until morning to answer you.)
Rick.
