Looked around and it appears I'm a bit high on price. Brew stand down to 1500.

Located in Spring / Tomball / N Houston area

Brewtus 10 style system for all grain brewing and serving. A one stop shop to go whole hog or to finally step up from your BIAB or stove top extract brews. 3 Keggles all on banjo style burners plumbed for natural gas (I believe I have the propane conversion orifice handy) TriClamp connections 2...

I never win anything....None the less. I'm in.

I've run it down to 42 with no trouble. Never tried to get any lower though I imagine it should do it. Most fridges, full size at least, come set to 38 from the factory. I've fermented my last two batches at 63 easily.

it should. But refer to the measurements listed above and measure your kegs. Caveat emptor and all that.

I'd say go for it! I'm sippin a lovely little Kolsch, my first from this ferm. chamber, right now. Everyone that brews should own a fermentation chamber.

It's a 5 gallon. My 6 wouldn't fit. If by floor of the fridge you mean in front of the compressor hump then no. It's only 8.75 inches deep. Measure whatever you plan on putting in it for sure; then refer to the dimensions I posted a few posts back.

The picture from WalMart is wrong. If you look closely in the one I posted you can see there actually are no refrigerant lines. The "freezer" was actually just a plastic bin. I didn't need to make any mechanical modifications. Just took off the door plastic and never installed the freezer box...

Correct. You can see from the picture it holds just one. Also there's no head room for an airlock on a carboy, hence the blowoff tube. A bucket with airlock fits just fine.

Extra data for those coming across this. The fridge is 17 in wide, 29 inches tall at it's tallest (between door and compressor hump at the back) 15.5 inches deep at its deepest, 21.5 inches tall from the compressor hump to the top, and the hump is 8.75 inches from the door. With all the...

JFR, The johnson controller is digital (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00368D6JA/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20) and the offset is programmable down to 1 degree. Good point on the calibration. I'll check it next chance I get. Thanks for the thermowell link Jammin; I'll get some knowledge...

I bought one for a fermentation chamber and for that use it's perfect. Holds buckets and 5 Gal. carboys no problem.

Sweet. I'll plan on going the foam route since I have some on hand. I might still set the controller a few degrees cooler until I have a few batches though it for comparison. Gracias.

Does anyone have any experience or reasonable estimations for the expected temperature of the fermenting wort in its vessel (carboy or ale pail) compared to the temperature of the surrounding air? I got myself a perfect little fermentation fridge (after several batches tasting exactly as...
