I don't think it would fit in mine. You'd have to measure yours and make a judgement call. Not sure if anything is available but you might be able to find something shaped right that you could convert. Maybe a food grade container that is rectangular with a lid? I was thinking along these...

Not a chance of fitting a 5 gal carboy in my freezer. When I lager in the freezer, I use a corny.

I have. Look back at the more recent pics where I built the wood framework. I fit 2 on the top and one on the bottom and can serve from all 3 or just use the space to lager. I did have to remove the door shelving and remove any ice/water serving parts that stuck back into the freezer.

I haven't noticed any moisture either. So far I have had zero problems with the temp controller or any other part of the system.

Nice build rtrevino. Some nice modifications in there. Seeing your taps should get me off my ass. I have all the parts to do the mod but I also have a four month old. Love him but he's cramping my style a bit. I'll have to remedy that. twd000, I do not know enough to know if you need...

Glad you were able to use the information in the post. It's a great unit to have and has really helped my brewing. Best of luck with it.

Can't see the pic.

If you cannot find the wiring diagram, you MAY be able to figure it out from the circuit board that the thermostats hook up to. I fould that mine had some information on it that I could use. For example, the power was labeled. Based on that I could tap the power wire in order to power the...

Finally made a few additions. I put a shelf on the freezer side and 2 shelves on the fridge side. I used mostly 1x3's so the kegs would fit and a few 2x3's in places where width did not matter and strength did. I didn't use plywood so that the cold air can still circulate. Now I can...

Shelving

Glad to hear I'm not the only one taking advantage. My brew has 25 minutes more to boil. It's my APA for the HBT contest. Nice to get the day out of the office!

The unit is working out great. No problems so far. As far as general set-up, I would make no changes. However, there are some things I still plan on doing. I plan to build wooden shelving in both sides of the unit. Currently, I have to stack buckets in the large side when fermenting more...

I wouldn't adjust the hops much if at all. The profile will be a bit more malty but it won't make a malt bomb or anything. It will just not be a crisp. I don't think your final gravity will be all that far off using S-04 vs. US-05. Both list 75% or so for attenuation. I've gotten over 75%...
