Hi All,
I just inherited a side by side fridge for a kegerator/fermentation chamber and am super pumped.
Question is, should I replace the existing thermostats with (2) STC 1000s? Or do I plug the fridge into my STC 1000 Temp control box and have the temp sensor into the freezer portion (kegerator side) and make another one for the fermentation chamber side with a fan to draw cold and small heater for warmth?
Are there disadvantages to either option? Is it bad to turn a fridge on and off? Seems like longevity of the fridge would be compromised with it turning off and on all the time?
Thanks in advance!
