I need to accomplish several things in my brew shed.
1-ferment ales
2-ferment and lager, you guessed it, lagers.
3-bulk grain storage
4-cold conditioning for ales 50-55f
There's no way this can all be accomplished in a cold room. But I can do all that in 3 chest freezers (more or less). So for a good amount less I can buy 3 new freezers, I have the controllers. This would take up less total space, and no mold worries associated with a homemade cold room.
Trust me, I wanted to build one just for the cool factor, but I just don't see the practicality in one. Convince me otherwise. There's just something so sweet about a walk in cooler.
