Plan on crafting one of these bad boys soon.
Mind you, I'll most likely make it more sturdy and more... aesthetic by covering it in melamine.

looks clever, personally, I'm leaning towards a used freezer with a temp controller for that purpose. I'm thinking in the long run the ease-of-use would be worth it, but it is certainly more pricy.

I'm renting out my basement apartment, otherwise I'd definitely go for the freezer.
The way we built the house, we lived in the basement for 2 years while we finished the upstairs. There's a whole kitchen + amenities down there, plus one huge room that's probably 20x20 or so. One day soon, it'll become my bar and nanobrew station :D
But for now, I need to make things compressed to my kitchen upstairs, so this'll make do for now.

the downside to using a freezer is space, build your own and you can make it whatever shape & size you want, fit it in a closet, under the stairs, under the workbench, etc.
I'll eventually build a fermentation chamber in the garage ...right beside my DIY Brutus Rig ...LOL!!

you need to rent that out to Dave ...you'd have rental income AND your brewpub :wavebeer: :wavebeer:
