I had a keg of kolsch on gas and a half of a case of bottles in my chest freezer lagering at 35 degrees. Everything was fine for several weeks when I noticed the pid was reading minus 2 degrees. I opened the freezer to find exploded bottles and the keg frozen solid. The pressure relief valve must have opened because there was a big frozen cap beer on top of the keg and the CO2 tank was empty. So I have the keg slowly thawing out in the freezer at 55 and I'm praying that it will still be good. However for the life of me I cannot figure out what happened and why this thing went to minus 2 degrees when it was set at 35. I reset it and it is working perfectly again.
