Around here it gets around and above 100F in the summertime, and even as I speak it is 80F inside my house. Therefore, I needed to build/buy some kind of fermentation chiller. As luck would have it, a good friend offered a mini-fridge he no longer used - score! The only problem was that it was just a wee bit too shallow to fit my 6.5 gallon carboy inside. So I thought perhaps it would be big enough without the plastic door material:
I took the seal off for reuse later, and then cut/ripped off the plastic stuff:
I suppose I could have measured first, before destroying the door...this still was not enough room.
So, I decided to make a collar and door out of plywood, and insulate with 1" styrofoam:
