Hey guys when fermenting in freezers that are modified for temp controls and such, what happens to the fumes (CO2) that are burped off and the freezer I sealed shut.

Does the freezer eventually burp? Especially if you had 2 primary's going?

Its fine, even with 2 primaries aggresively fermenting.

Just don't stick your head in there when there's a bunch of CO2 built up. Not particularly dangerous, but taking a deep breath full of CO2 is NOT an enjoyable experience...found that out after my CO2 tank had a leak I didn't know about.

The door seals are to prevent rapid air exchanges, not complete seals. The excess CO2 will escape but there will be a pool of CO2 inside.
