Hello all,

I am trying to finish up my kezzer build and I am kinda stuck on where to mount the temp probe of my A419 temp controller. My keezer is a 7cft GE chest freezer with a 4inch collar and a 3 tap setup. Any suggestions?

I put mine about 6 inches off the back wall and about 6 inches down. Just don't let it touch the walls. I attach a separte digital thermometer probe to the side of my carboy and monitor that temp. If it is too high i just turn my temp controller down a degree or two.
 
Heat rises so you are going to want to place your thermocouple on your temperature controller close to the middle maybe biasing towards the bottom on the freezer. I picked up a cheap $3 thermometer to make sure my temps were where I wanted them.
