Hey everyone, so I've been looking into getting a chest freezer to keep my carboy in for fermentation because last summer I used a swamp cooler and it was such a pain that I don't want to hassle with it again. I'm planning on getting a chest freezer so I won't have to deal with any of that, but I have some questions. I'm planning on getting this igloo freezer in the link below, but I'd like to get a freezer that can fit 2 carboys while I'm at it. Should I get the 7.2 cubic foot freezer instead if I wanna fit 2 and is igloo a good brand? I'm also planning on using the temperature controller in the link below, but will it work with this chest freezer? I saw other igloo models on best buy's website and it says non convertible to a refrigerator, it also says that the highest temperature it reaches on Home Depot's website is 11 degrees. So can the temperature controller override this and keep it at the right temperature?
