Well, I finally got my keezer finished this past weekend! I've had it running for about 3 weeks to make sure it would hold temps, even with it sitting outside in the Arizona sun. It's kept the inside at a nice 37 degrees.
I'm using an InkBird temp controller. I originally was going with the Johnson controls unit but the InkBird does such a nice job and is so small and compact that I changed out my Johnson for the ITC-1000 and mounted it inside (I'm not confident enough in my woodworking skills to mount it on the front).
I've skinned it with cedar panels and maple corner pieces with 4 taps (3 for beer and 1 for carbonated water) and a very nice 4 faucet drip tray from Keg Connection (via Amazon). The top is covered in stainless steel tiles that I think really set it off.
The only issue I seem to be having (which I'm hoping will disappear when I bring it inside) is quite a bit of moisture. I'll find out next weekend if this is due to the excessive heat outside which is what I expect.
I wasn't sure if I should add pics of my build since it has been done so much already but if anyone is interested I will.
