DIY Fermenter Dimensions

Can someone please confirm the dimensions of a DIY fermenter?

 

Sorry, I am at work at the moment so I can't measure my fermenter and I have an oportunity to get a fridge for $40 with the following internal dimensions:

 

Depth = 400mm

Width = 420mm

Height = 830mm

 

The height should be right but if my memory serves me correctly, I think the width of a fermenter was about 400. Therefore I am thinking this maybe too narrow for me, or not deap enough, to use for fermenting.

This is what PB2 said in the main DIY kit post:

\t

FV with Krausen Kollar and Lid: 55cm tall

FV with Lid only: 48cm tall

Lid is 36.5cm across and 40cm at the tabs

Footprint is 25cm x 25cm

 

If you keep the tabs to the side you should squeeze it in.

Thanks Dan

I think it might just squeeze in if that is the case, but I would like a little bit of room though as this appears pretty close. I may have to wait until the current brew is finished then take it with me to check and if it has been sold then I guess it's just bad luck :(

Maybe take off the lid, replace it with gladwrap and test that in the new fridge - the lid is the widest/deepest part...?

$40 sounds like a good deal if it works well.
