So, my fermentation fridge is on the way out. It's still not dead, but close to. After 10 years of faithful service to me (and who knows how long it was around before I acquired it), it's barely able to hold temps in the 60s right now.
So that leaves me with a conundrum. I actually want to replace my kitchen fridge, and I could roll that out to the garage as my overflow fridge and use my current spare for fermenting. But I'm thinking I'll be moving within the next year. Normally I'd buy the biggest fridge that will fit in the opening I've got, but I don't want to buy a fridge that then won't fit in the next place.
What is the largest fridge I should look for with an expectation that it won't be *too* large for an average single family home? Not sure if I will buy or rent, but even if I buy I don't want to do major kitchen remodeling immediately just to fit a fridge, so I want something that will fit just about anywhere.
Right now I have an opening of 37" wide and 72" tall. How much smaller should I go to have a high likelihood of the new fridge fitting in the next house?
If it means anything, I live in Southern California, so in general space is at a major premium. Not sure if that matters to typical fridges in the area, though...
