I just sourced a few old half barrel kegs. My fermenting freezer is only 29 in high on the inside. Kegs are 26 inches high. Is there a low profile conversion kit out there to use them as fermenters? I'm going to buy a normal conversion kit from NorCal for my fermenting fridge which has plenty of clearance but the freezer seems to be a dead end.
If not, I was thinking about keeping something in the keg full time and pulling 5g out periodically and replace it with new wort. Specifically was thinking of a mixed ferment Farmhouse style. Any recs for a recipe or yeast that can tolerate variable temperature (45-85 F) somewhat indefinite aging? I really loved some of the saisons made from bootleg biology yeast blends but didn't know if some of the non-sach species would overly dominate after awhile.
