I have seen threads on this with some good info but none of those threads included someone that actually drill through their upright freezer.
So where did you drill through??
I ask because I picked up a ~17cuft upright for 50 bucks. I want to turn it into a fermentation chamber. At the moment my idea is to remove on of the plastic cap that is in the indented shelf support and then drill through to the outside. seems logical that the likely hood of the coils running through that spot would be low. Of course i will probe and look before drilling it out.
This will just to get me started i have a plans for this chamber as i can get four buckets/carboys in it. I eventually want to see if i can do multiple temps using four individual brew belts and foour stc-1000s. Setting the freezer to the coldest temp needed for which ever beer is in there.
I may use the drain hole just to get started but want to avoid that as a long term solution as it takes up valuable temp probe cable length.
