Hi Gents,
I have a Kegerator series 4. I got this from my workplace. I used it successfully from Jan-Apr brewing some lagers and an ale all successfully in terms of my temps I wanted it to hold.
I've had it off for say 3-4 weeks, as I needed to take a break from brewing/drinking due to some minor health problems for the last month and a bit.
I turned it on last Sunday. Since then I've had problems getting the actual temp above 14-15 C. I have a pocket temp probe in a glass of water inside the fridge and it's reading anywhere from 12-15 C even when I've had the set temp at 18-20C.
The kegerator is inside my house. Previously I had no problem holding these warmer temps for doing a d-rest for my lagers or the English dark mild I brewed.
I live in metro Sydney. Is this just a by-product of the colder weather and for some reason it can't warm up to these desired temps? Or is there something I can do/check to fix this?
Cheers
Chris
