I'm looking at investing in a fridge or freezer for the fermentation process. I live in an area with hot summers 40°+ and winters with nights that get below 0° so obviously, I will need something to keep my brew stable.
I haven't yet brewed anything, as I want to ensure I do everything possible to avoid a disaster!
My question is, will a small freezer, 90L or so be suitable? A friend told me that a freezer is better than a fridge, as they generally have better insulation. Can any one confirm or deny this point? Has anyone had success or failure using a freezer rather that a fridge?
Also, when using the STC1000, what is the energy consumption like?
Thanks for your help!
