Norris! Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 If you have a bar fridge that you ferment in, temperature control, what size is it and does it fit a 25l or 30l fermenter? Cheers, Norris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergy1987 Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I have a 128L westinghouse with no freezer section. Fits the Coopers DIY fermenter without the krausen collar. Maybe could with the collar if I did the shelf differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norris! Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 Awesome! I just bought one. I did measure my fermenter against the dimensions but seeing yours confirmed it for me. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know as I've done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graculus Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Norris. if you want to use the collar you'll have to make a half shelf that fits tight under the bottom groove. Let me know if you want me to take a picture of mine. As I said it will fit with the collar but only with millimetres to spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd actually be interested to see your shelf just for future ideas for mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurt my back this week, so I'm not sure I fancy lifting the FV off it at the moment, but I will post some pics. It's not the same quality as yours though. I make do with bits of stuff I've got lying around in the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norris! Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 Thank you Graculus, I would love to see what you have done also. I am not trying to reinvent the wheel! I am sure my shelf will look like a 3 year old built it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graculus Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 A bit grubby. Fridge must be due for a clean before the next brew. See how the shelf is below the groove for where the glass shelf was. I think I was going to screw the top to the the H base, but never got around to it. And finally with the Coopers FV. No room to spare. It's a snug fit. cheers Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norris! Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 Nice work! I think I can build something like that. Fergie's is nice too but past my woodworking skills. I appreciate you both sharing on this post, it has helped me a ton. Norris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
