How is cabin temperature maintained during flight?

I'll probably wear a winter coat next time I fly EK. Recent flights have had cabins that were freezing - to the point where the cabin crew couldn't find enough blankets as many passengers wanted two or even three blankets.

I prefer a cool cabin but this felt very cold.

Contrast this with my SAS flight where the cabin was very warm after take-off and slowly cooled down to adjust to the cold Scandinavian ambient temperature at touchdown, but still comfortable.

So, how is the cabin temperature maintained on EK? Does it follow some logic or does the cabin crew member in charge of a particular cabin set the thermostat to whatever they want?
