Hey guys, first post! Woo!!
Making a Keezer/fermentation chamber
(50-75° for fermenting then dropping it once beer is ready)
Already own:
- holiday 5.1 cu cheat freezer. (swiped at 129.99 brand new because of an OLD price tag posted on here)
- Johnson a419 controller
- 1 pin lock corny (found outside of my work)
- 1 ball lock corny
- handheld keg charger
- 6.5 better bottle primary
- ale pale bucket secondary (should I switch these 2 around)
Here is a break down of my "plan" so far.
1. Build a collar attached to the lid
- the small size somewhat demands this option to Be able to move things around inside one at a time.
2. Co2 tank
- inside or outside the Keezer?
3. Wrap the whole thing in wood
- If I leave the condenser housing and vents uncovered will that be enough? I want to put faux- cabinet doors on the front, and a butcher block top
4. Eventually somehow split it to do a fermentation chamber and a single keg chiller in unison.
Who's got some advice or comments??
Questions 3 and 4 are really what I need help on. The others are covered by a handful of forums.
