3.5 cu ft refridgerator?

[purpleyuan]

Does anyone have any experience with using a 3.5 cu ft refridgerator for temperature control?

The one I have in mind is: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Magic-Ch...ENERGYSTAR-HMBR350SE/203425045#specifications

I have only 1 glass 3 gallon carboy that is apparently 9.5 x 9.5 x 11 or so.

When I saw this thread title I immediately thought "I wonder if this is about that $100 mini-fridge at Home Depot?"

A couple weeks ago I went and looked at this fridge because the price was so attractive for a new fridge. I know it wont fit a 6 gallon better bottle carboy but I think it would fit your 3 gallon.

IMO, I would not waste money on this even if it would work for you. If you ever move to a bigger carboy you have just wasted your money.

As an aside, when I looked at that fridge and saw it would not work, I looked around and ended up getting a 6.8 cu ft Magic Chef chest freezer. It was only $60 more than that fridge and about $40 cheaper than any mini-fridge they had there that would fit my carboy. Of course it helped that my GF was tired of me looking at it and said "Geeze just get it!"

This is the model I got http://www.homedepot.com/p/Magic-Ch...397?N=c3nr?Ns=P_REP_PRC_MODE%7C0#.UpPH3MRUd8E
