I was planning on using this as a fermentation chamber. I saw it can hold 2 6 gal Better bottles, but does anyone know if it can two of the large plastic fermenters:

2 buckets fit perfectly, with just enough room for your johnson probe to fit in between the bucket cleavage...

And don't forget GE is the company which paid $0 in taxes in 2011, $0, that means everyone in this forum paid more in taxes than the multi-billion dollar company GE.

Lowes has one for 189, I'm pretty sure it was 179 in the store though, and it's made by holiday.

Hi, new here. Nice forum. Just wondering if this freezer has casters. Can't find that info on any site. Looks like it would make a nice keezer for me since I am only going to run a 2 tap tower with maybe a 5lb co2 on the hump. Appears to have ample height above the ball locks without building a collar. Appreciate any input. Rob

No casters. The interior floor is 24"x15" and the hump is 7.5"x15" along the right side. Interior height is about 27.5".

Just snagged one of these from Wal-Mart for $139.99. Looking forward to my first keezer build :rockin:

Has anyone used this chest freezer as both a warm/cool fermentation chamber?

If you have, can you post the details or recommendations to provide gentle heat inside this freezer to keep the chamber warmer during winter months?

Thanks!
