Hey all,
Just got a 20 cu ft deep freeze off craigslist, and will pick up a temp controller and another corny keg tomorrow.
I am still very new at this so my question is what is the lowest temp that you would lager or serve a beer at? I can get a fridge for next to nothing, and my girlfriend and I have been wanting a deep freezer for while now.....plus I am only going to have a couple corny kegs for now anyway. If a fridge will work fine, then it doesn't seem logical for me to put taps in the deep freeze and dedicate it when it could be put to much better use.
I know that a large benefit of only having a couple kegs in it would be the abillity to lager, which I have been wanting to try, but if I could fit 2-3 corn'y and a 5g carboy in a stand up fridge I think that would set me up. I'll go through the side so the co2 tank doesn't need to be inside the fridge.
Thanks in advance
