Best use for a chest freezer
I have the chance to get a small chest freezer for next to nothing. What will be the best use of it. 1 to controll fementation temps 2 to make into a kegerator?
|
Replace the Thermometer with one you can dial to whatever temp you want, and you can have both. (Not so much at the same time, but...)
|
Fermentation chamber. Temp control is more important than kegging.
|
Kegerator. Dual purpose. Use it to ferment between kegs. You'll need a temp controller. You'll also need the hardware for a kegorator. Get the stuff you mount vertically. Then you could eventually get a cheap frige off CL and make a kegerator and have your freezer as a ferm chamber.
Just saying. |
I would say fermentation chamber first.
|
Control your fermentation temps first.

Ditto on the ferm chamber first. Old fridges make great kegerators and they can be had for less than $100 if you keep an eye on CL. They don't need temperature controllers to keep kegs at serving temp, you can mount shanks/faucets right through the door with no worries of hitting coolant lines and they are designed to run at "fridge" temps without any of the condensation issues that plague 40*F chest freezers.

ferm chamber first !
|
I got it a fermentation chamaber, this is what i thouhgt. Thanks for the advice.
|
You're welcome. Enjoy the cheap chamber!
