I was given this small ice cream freezer/merchandiser for free. My first thought was to turn it into a kegerator but its not quite deep enough to fit corny kegs without a collar (the curved plastic top would have to be removed). So then I thought about using it for a fermentation chamber. It happens to fit two carboys perfectly, plus room for a blow-off jar (I put the temp controller probe into the water in the blow-off jar).
I guess its not much of a DIY project so excuse me if it goes in a different section. All I did was plug it into a temperature controller. But I will be doing a little more to it at some point. I do need to black out the clear plastic cover to keep light out. Plus I'll have to do something about the ice cream graphics on it. But for now it seems to be working OK, I just put the first batch into it, a Pliny clone I brewed today.
Anybody else use one like this?
