So I am looking into converting a dorm fridge into a fermentation chamber so I can ensure appropriate temperature. I've found tons of awesome threads on here regarding wiring and what temperature sensors to use but nothing about suggested make/model of dorm fridge. I want it to be standalone- e.g. all I have to do is wire up the temp control and throw the bucket in.
What dimensions (x by y by z or cu. ft) should I be looking for for a 5 gallon bucket or carboy with airlock? I noticed a lot of 4+ cu. ft dorm fridges have a step in the back.
What about wine coolers/fridges with built in temperature controls? It seems like I could save some money by rolling my own as opposed to going that route.
I know I can search the forums, but I thought if anyone had a suggestion this might garner more efficient results.
Thanks in advance for your help!
