What's a good refrigerator for conditioning/lagering a five gallon batch in bottles? Between a chest freezer :))), assorted woodworking tools...and oh yeah, two cars...I don't have room in the garage or anywhere else for a full-size fridge. Looking for something that will conveniently fit in a small walk-in closet.
Thanks!
 
I would look for something in the 4+ cubic foot variety, without a freezer. The overall footprint of most minfridges is about the same, but the ability to hold 2 corny kegs or a bucket fermentor requires a larger mini-fridge.
 
I've been looking for the same thing. Lowes has a Whirlpool mini fridge 4.3 cu ft without a freezer for $129 that I might buy. The Craigslist offerings are dismal in my area right now.
 
You may already know a Closet isn't always the best place for a fridge unless you do something to address air flow. Even leaving to door open a couple inches will increase function and extent the life of it.
