Hi all, new here. Been reading a lot but can't seem to find too much info on kegerators and what I'm looking to do. I'm looking to do one of the foam box conversions from an old mini fridge that I've seen many do on here for fermintation. Seems people have no problem getting to 50 ish degrees for that. Reference thread below.

My question, I'm looking to gut an old fridge and build a box 32"tall x 28"wide x25" deep. Im doing this to hold either one half barrel or two skinny kegs (cornies?) to run to two taps on top of a bar.

Will a mini fridge cooling unit beable to acheive 36-38 degrees? Should I look for one that uses a freezer to chill the fridge?

Thanks for the help.
Andrew
