Cellar Pictures

I rent an apartment without basement access so crafted my own cellar out of foam board and the bottom part of a metal shelving unit. Leave this room unheated so stays in mid 40's to mid 50's in the winter. AC ducted into back and will hook up to a temp controller come spring/summer to hopefully keep it in the 50's. Bottling up some Barleywine and Bourbon barrel old ale soon to add to it and have an imperial stout planned as well.

Did some decorating on my temp controlled fridge that acts as a cellar

Once we found out we were approved for the house I started binge drinking. More out of fear than excitement!
Actually, it's all packed up lol

I didn't think that light beers aged well, and yours are so light they float to the ceiling. How do you keep the conditions right for cellaring them?

Some updates photos of my cellar now with lighting finally.

 

[bobeer]

Damn dude, that's a sick cellar.

I'm just getting the hang of this buying beer to drink it later stuff.
Some commercial stuff and some homebrew stuff. I keep them in a box on a shelf under my equipment.

I wish I could cellar. I keep drinking all I brew 😄

I hear you... I'm just now getting to where I can buy something and not drink it. I usually pick up something special once a month and buy some other stuff I can drink immediately.
When it comes to homebrew I brew a big beer to age then I brew something else asap so I forget about the one I'm trying to cellar. Like right now, I brewed a stout I just kegged, then I brewed an imperial oak aged version of the same beer, and I just brewed an IPA yesterday so I forget about oak aged one. So I have a fresh keg to drink, and one in primary on deck. Just brew, brew, brew!

 

[schneidaero]

That makes sense. Last month a brewed my first big brew: a Barleywine. Since then brewed a dark ale and a a smash ale to get my mind off of the Barleywine (more over keep my fridge full). That cellar was impressive. The variety and the amount of inventory.

Cellar starts off small but can grow quite quickly. I know form experience. I just starting buying in two. Drink one and lay one down then things sprung out of control

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Organize the cellar again and amazing how much f-n beer i have. All the boxes at the bottom are full.

Finally got my cubes finished

 

[thatjonguy]

Nice looking cubes! Laying down a bunch of homebrew wine?

I need to insulate a small space under my stairs to put my high value beer to stay cooler. Or start digging a hole in the backyard.

This was inventory from tonight. Reorganizing since I have been pulling from boxes, leaving numerous spaces in each one.

Also migrating all my cellar data to BEX for ease of use. Found a couple bottles I forgot I had, lol.

I might have a problem.

I really need to start storing my glassware upside down. I gets old washing them before and after using.

Helps to be storing them on a wire shelf.

That is actually my overflow shelf - long term storage. I MAY have a problem.

Finally got around to organizing mine last week. All of the six packs are homebrew and are three or four deep. I moved a lot of beer that would age a while behind some of the singles ill get to when I can. Ive got quite the collection going now that i cant drink. Somehow not drinking OR buying was just unacceptable.

Looks awesome man. I need to drink more or buy less too. My fridge/cellar is full and bottles are now starting to invade the storage shelves. I think they multiply while I'm not watching.

Thats the best part about a cellar. If you're patient enough that problem eventually happens. Then you can drink like a king for a month and make room for more beer, but still have a hell of a stock of beer. I cannot wait till i can drink again to start doing that haha.

Are you getting them wet or feeding them after midnight? If not, you have to share your secret. I have two bottles of 2015 BCBS left that I need to copulate and have babies.
