The 'Fermchamberator': a Kegerator Turned Refrigerator Turned Fermentation Chamber (and Back Again)

Описание: I repurposed and converted an old kegerator turned fridge in my garage into a fermentation chamber capable of heating and cooling batches of fermenting wort (beer) up to 10 or more gallons to maintain a desired fermentation temperature even in extremely cold winters and hot summers without having to transport difficult to carry fermenters into my house and down flights of stairs to ferment in the basement. Now, I can just brew in my garage, rack it to fermenter, and toss it into the nearby fermentation chamber. BONUS: It is easily convertible back to a fridge or kegerator if needed.
