A Question on Fementation Chamber

[Santhalas]

Hi, i'm planning to build a small Ale fermentation chamber, for just 1 carboy because i don't have much space in my garage
I have an old micro fridge like the picture but i'm not sure if it will be capable of chilling or warming 5 gls. What do you think?? I don't want to buy a small fridge o build something that won't work.

Thanks in advance!!

That thing looks really small and Im not sure it could handle 5g. You could always go with the son of ferm Ice thing.

Does that thing even cool down drinks? The reviews I've seen online indicate they're not very effective in cooling down a 6-pack.

An important info of aprox temperatures for my garage for the question
winter: min 55f, an average of 60
summer: max 86f at mid day, at night temperature drops down to 70.

Is your garage completely enclosed and/or insulated?

I think you'd be better off with a son of fermentation chamber as suggested above.
