Depending on the film, I can be a bit anal about it as well. If I am shooting modern emulsions (I.E., Ilford/Kodak), I try to get the dev pretty much spot on and then just go with the rest (as long as its not ridiculous). But, when shooting EFKE and older type emulsions, I try and get all temps pretty spot on.
I do do a bit of hot/cold/hot/cold and so forth, but in the summer, I do set up a tempering bath and try and stabilise things a bit. My tempering bath is just a plastic tub filled with water and Ice bricks as required.
