I have came across what i think will be a super ferm chamber but i am looking for idea's on how to make it work.
What i have is a open top cooler with no lid. Its wide enough for 2 carboys. 1 sits on the bottom of the cooler the 2nd sits about 12inchs higher above the compresser.
Problem i am having is with a airlock i would need to build a lid that would be like 12-14 inch's taller. Thus i think a blow off tube would be the way to go saving on "lid" space.
The sides of the cooler dont seem to get cold. I have seen other posts with guys using the pink insulation board.
Could i pick up a sheet of this and not need...say plywood?
How to attach it was my next problem. plywood would work but having good room even with a blow off the lid still needs to be 6-8 inchs tall so i dont kink the hose. If the plywood was screwed to the cooler i am affraid it will be to much of a reach down and up with a full carboy.
I would get ya a pic to help ya out more but it says i cant post attachments for some reason.
