fridge

I have an older Amana refrigerator with a bottom freezer that I have been using for years as a fermentation fridge. It gets as low as 40°F. I use an inkbird temperature controller - it has worked fairly well. It could be stronger in this central valley heat when trying to cool off wort... Yes...

Hi all, I just got a big fridge I'll be using as a fermentation chamber/cool storing unit for my brews. I need to take off the plastic door panel as the built-in shelves take too much space inside. I looked around the rubber seal but there are no visible screws. Does anyone have experienced...

I have a two door fridge that has been used as a fermentation chamber and a cellar. Works great for both or for cold beer storage. The doors are painted with chalk board paint. Pick up only in San Leandro Ca

Inspired by HomeBrewTalk members. Thanks to all of those who have posted on this topic. First step; find the refrigerator for the best price. Got mine on Amazon for $169 with free shipping. Next, remove and modify the door. The model that I bought had the interior door panel glued on. I...

Hello HBT! Im selling my single side coke fridge to make room for a double side - I’ve had ZERO problems cold crashing , holding temps in the summer and winter etc with this - I’m upgrading to a double side for increased capacity with my new conicals. This fits 4 carboys no problem or even the...

So, I done a stupid and put my hops in the fridge instead of the freezer after getting home from the homebrew shop. I put them in the freezer after about 5 days but I'm not convinced they're still good. I've got 3 oz. of pellet hops in non vacuum sealed bags (my local shop sells them in bulk in...

Hi everyone, I'm leaning towards picking up an Insignia 9.9cu ft fridge to convert for a kegerator. I am pretty sure I'll be able to gete 4 kegs in there. I'd like to keep the CO2 on the outside. Does anyone have experience drilling through the side of this one? I can't find a schematic of the...

Hi HBT! I am quite interested in trying out kveik yeast. It seems to be all the rage. I've read that you should ferment them warm (18 C and up to 39 C or so). My question is this: Normally we want to keep the temperature of the fermentation vessel down - for this I have a temperature controlled...

Hello just signed up but have brewed a few dozen times. Did an all grains brew the other day and made a Vienna lager. I brewed this passed Sunday and its now Wednesday. Monday I checked (have to drive to where the fridge is) in the fridge theres a white little foam or a collection of bubbles...

Looking to clear some space out as I seem to just keep expanding, and not downsizing. Prices are all listed at the end of the title. Everything is in great condition. Can provide pictures later; just not at the moment as I'm not at home. Fermenter's Favorite cooler system - $150 OBO Bought...

Goal: Bypass the stock mini-fridge thermostat to allow the fridge to get below 30F. Why: So the Inkbird ITC-1000 could be wired up to the mini-fridge to better control the internal temperature and get to temperatures below the 40-ish degrees the stock thermostat would allow. Breakthrough...

Hey everybody, So I have made many posts about this and read many threads and gathered countless amounts of information but I am looking for a few more answers. I recently got back to my refrigerator which I intend to turn the freezer side into a kegerator with two taps and the fridge side into...

A couple years ago, I bought a used kegerator off of Craigslist. It's a nice Kenmore fridge, but the counter top was warped and cracked, and the tower was a simple one-tap with a sanke connection. So, I cut a piece of thick MDF board to replace the top and built a tap tower using the plan...

Hi I just bought a kegerator conversion kit that came with 2 corny kegs. I'm just wondering if people think 2 kegs plus the co2 will fit in a 4.4 cu model mini fridge. This is the particular one I'm looking at. Thanks so much for the help...

BI means built-in, suitable for under-counter mount. NK means “no tap kit included”.

OK so i plan on building a kegerator from the ground up for cheaps just to get to the point I'll be getting a 1.7 cubic foot mini fridge for $20 that works perfect and is barely used and im going to gut it. I wanna keep it relatively light because I want to be able to move it easily and not...

Would the water filtered through a refrigerator be sufficient for homebrewing?

Just a heads up that the 4.3 cuft Whirlpool mini fridge (WH43RS2E) at Lowe's is on sale for $130 right now. Regularly $200. https://m.lowes.com/pd/Whirlpool-4-3-cu-ft-Counter-Depth-Freestanding-Compact-Refrigerator-black-stainless-steel-ENERGY-STAR/1000319705 It doesn't have a freezer so it is...

I'm looking to buy a mini-fridge to convert to a kegerator. I'm trying to avoid bending the freezer tray down (i killed a fridge trying this). If anyone has successful converted a mini-fridge tell me what model and your experience with the conversion. Thanks!
