Cold crash?

[mygar]

I am currently fermenting an extract kolsch. Thinking on using biofine or gelatin, and cold crashing.

I have a freezerless magic chef fridge 4.4cf with inkbird. I'm assuming this unit would not get down to typical cold crash temps of say 34F? Maybe 45F or so? If so is this cold enough to even bother?

I'd say though not ideal it's better than nothing. If clarity you are after using some fining plus cooler temps will help you get towards your goal.
Are you bottling or kegging? Additional time plus cold temps in the final packaging will also clear things up.

Well I could give it a shot and see how low the fridge would go. I will be bottling. So not sure if I should try layering in the carboy or bottles... ?

Unless you're entering it into a comp, or really really really trying to make it clear, a tiny bit of haze isn't the end of the world and won't negatively impact your brew. I've had beer that I a) forgot to cold crash b) was too lazy to cold crash or c) both a and b, and it turned out clearer than ones I did cold crash. The fridge temps will drop down some sediment, but if you're also using another agent to clarify, it'll be okay.
