I've considered that, but I haven't taken the time to actually do it. Maybe one of these days!

Indeed, the switches are not ideal, but with the low voltage used for the computer fans and LEDs, I figured the risk was small enough to justify saving the space that would be required to put in a box. After having it a few years now, the one thing I wish I had was a way to turn the CO2 on...

I'll gladly revive this zombie! All in all, I'm still really happy with the design. The two computer fans to a decent (read not perfect) job at keeping the top of the coffin cool. It's good enough that I'm not pouring a glass full of foam at first pour which is what I was going for. If I...

I made these today with the leftover grains from a wit. They came out well, but the bites with chocolate chips in them were much better than the ones without. If / when I make them again, I think I'll be doubling the chocolate in there. I also found that I needed to smash the batter down...

Awesome! Thanks Jeebas!

Hi Jeebas, Can I get added to the list? Thanks! https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/my-keezer-build-ode-jester-snowveil-458745/

It took many nights and weekends, but she's finally finished and pouring cold brew. Full details in this thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/my-keezer-build-ode-jester-snowveil-458745/

Great! I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have. It's all still fresh in my mind, so that should make it a little easier to answer.

I didn't for my build, because I didn't want to mess up the lid in case for some strange reason I ever wanted to put the original freezer together. I thought on the off chance something went wrong with the freezer, drilling several large holes through the top would void the warranty. With that...

I also wanted to show a little bit of the back. You can see the finished chalkboard paint on the back of the access door to keep track of when beer was placed in service and when things were last cleaned. I then have two more pictures of the back a little more zoomed out. You can see the...

Here are a few pictures from the inside. In the first picture you can see the Eva-Dry dehumidifier that I keep in the keezer. I didn't have bad moisture problems, but also figured that I don't want to have moisture problems. I have two PC fans circulating air in the main body of the keezer...

This is the first time I have a picture that shows the base. I used a 2x6 and 2x4 to create a platform for the freezer to sit on. I had to use my router to remove some excess wood so that my freezer would sit level on it when I removed the screw on legs. On the bottom of the base, I attached...

To build the top of the Coffin, I again used some 3/4 plywood. After cutting it to size, I used some pine molding to hide the plywood edges and give it a nice finished look. The first picture shows the profile of the molding. It's about an inch high. I attached the molding to the top using a...

I added two layers of the rigid foam to the inside of the collar. I figured this would be one of the biggest temperature loss areas, so used caulk on each seam of this as well. Perhaps a bit overkill, but caulk is cheap. It also helped to hold the material in place. On the inside of the...

After cutting the keezer bar top to size, I determined where the coffin should be. I wanted it to be as close to the back as possible, but needed to allow for the insulation and overhang so it ended up about 1/3 of the way into the top. After making sure it was where I wanted it, I drilled...
