I guess I should start with trying to figure out how to take apart the inside of my fridge. One more question I have is what temp controller and fan do you recommend and where can I get them?

So r8rphan, what type of temp controller and fan would you recommend and where should I get them from?

Oh ok, I'm starting to get how it all works. Thanx so much.

LOL. I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. Although water is a resource that you just don't waste in the desert, I don't think that using 6 gallons at a time is putting too much strain on our supply.

Rudu81, Thanx for the help. The only thing is I have no idea how to start wiring a controller to this, nor which controller I need. Do side by side fridges have two cooling units? If so, I assume, but correct me if I'm wrong, I would then either need 2 controllers or 1 controller that has 2...

Well glad I'm not alone being a novice and all. Yeah, I've got a 1970 Grand Prix with a 455. She's my baby.

Thank you both so much for your help and input. I will look into that.

LakewoodBrew, Thanx for the response. I'm not sure I understand how that would work. How exactly would I set up the second temp controller and fan? What kind of modifications are we talking about?

Ok, I live in the desert in Arizona where it doesn't get cold for very long so brewing lagers is hard. Also my house doesn't stay a very constant temp throughout the day. I wanted the freedom to brew a lager or ale whenever I wanted as well as the freedom to do more than one batch at a time so...

How's it goin everyone? I'm here in the good old desert of Tucson, AZ. I brewed my first batch several years ago and since have only done a few. They are all from kits from my local home brew store but I really want to start learning more and designing my own brews and trying different recipes.
