Hello everyone,
I'm new to winemaking and am in the middle of my first batch. Fermintation and degassing stages are complete, now on aging. I need some ideas on how to cool down my wine. The kit I used is the Celebration del Mondo - Chilean Cabernet/Melot. The instructions say I need to keep store it in the 6.5 glass carboy for 22-45 days at 50-60 degrees F, then bottle. I have my wine in my apartment and the avg ambient temperature is about 70 F.
All suggestions are welcome!
I've looked for a mini fridge and a kegerator but trying to keep my cost down.
I've created a blog documenting my progress if you guys/gals are interested:

Thanks in advance,
Kris
