hey all,
As I have progressed along the brewing process i am finding that I need more fermentation space. Right now I can only hold 2 5G carboys in my chamber and it does struggle sometimes with the temp. usually getting it down to ferm temp after its help above 72 before ferm starts. You can see what I did in this thread:

What I wanna know is, if you had an entire room in your house that you could dedicate to just fermenting beer...what would you do? the idea of a chest freezer is out. i can barely lift a full 5G carboy to get it onto the counter much less pull it out of a freezer. build something? cabinet like? Just looking for ideas. It'd be even better if i had two separate areas so I could put my carboy that i have just brewed and isnt fermenting yet into....as well as keeping my other carboys at a colder temp.
TIA,
M
