So on Monday afternoon, I set my ferm chamber to cold crash my blonde ale at 38F, coming down from 72F. Tuesday morning, the temperature was hitting just about 50F. Thought to myself that it seemed like it took a long time to drop down just 20 degrees. Then I figured, it may have been because there's no air circulation to spread the cold air around the chamber. I ended up finding our old PC tower, took the fan out of it, and found a 12v adapter. I hooked the two up and it worked just fine. Stuck it to a wall inside my ferm chamber and it seemed to help drop the temp a bit quicker.
Anyways, this morning before leaving for work, I check the chamber and the fan had stopped working. It couldn't have been the wiring since it worked from the start and it can't be the outlet it was plugged into as it was the same outlet my temp controller was plugged into. I'd hate to think it's simply that the fan has just died.
Anybody have any idea?
Here's a picture of the fan and the adapter I used
