Hey fellow brewers,
So I recently got a chest freezer as a birthday gift and due to the South Texas heat I have to use it as a fermentation chamber to make my homebrew about 80% of the year.
The more I bottle beer, the more I want to start kegging, however I really don't want to have to buy another fridge or freezer to ferment in, and then use the freezer as my kegerator.
Is it possible the freezer can serve as dual purpose? I've figured I could brew 2 batches as I usually do. Bottle one batch, keg the other, and then when the keg beer runs out I'd at least have a backup bottle supply of brews to drink while I had to use the chamber to ferment more...however it still seems a bit tedious.
Has anyone done this before?
