I'm planning on building a fermentation chamber to live in my garage, which can get above 90 degrees in the summer. I've seen plenty of examples of people building chambers with window unit ACs as the cooling source, but I've also seen one with a minifridge with its door removed and an insulated box built around it (though I lost the link to it). I've considered using a deep freeze, but I'm thinking I might want to expand the chamber in the future and be able to put a conical or two in it. Right now I just need it big enough for a bucket and a couple of carboys.
I think the window ac unit would be the best solution, but my wife is leaving her job and will be bringing home the tiny minifridge that we bought last summer. It's only 2 cubic feet I think, so it wouldnt really work as a kegerator. Any thoughts on using the minifridge, or should I just buy a window unit and keep bottles in the minifridge?
Any examples of similar builds would also be appreciated.
