I figured out a better bottle carboy fits inside a Rubbermaid 10 Gallon cooler with about an inch all around it. It's an inch too tall, so I cut off part of the neck of the carboy and it fits perfectly.
My plan is to use the cooler to lager the Koelsch, since I think I can keep it down around 35 degrees for days at a time without opening it.
But it made me think, if someone figured out a way to put an airlock in through the lid without a big air gap, this would be a much better fermentation chamber than a wet t-shirt, or even a water bath.
Has anyone done this?
