Small but effective.
$45 fridge from ebay and a Mashmaster temp controller.
I thought 3 ferm capacity would be plenty but after seeing Doc's set up........ :blink:

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has shared their setups with the rest of us.

I have forwarded this topic to my wife. We live in hope... :D

Best of luck SMO.
My wife happens to like the beer I make, so when it comes to making things better she turns a blind eye to the cost
 
I've almost reach full capacity (cubes two deep).
Will keg another beer tomorrow, kick off fermentation on one of the cubes, allowing me to get maybe two more brew days in this week, and that will be it. For the first time in a couple of years (even though the potential capcity has increased), I'll be at full production :p
Also both stir plates in action. WLP300 on the right, and WLP029 on the left.

It is on.
There is no orange dot on that power switch. An you should be able to see the vortex in the middle of the growler. Definitely on.

Beers,
Doc
 
Doc, you're turning into a 'No Chill' junkie. Good to see :beerbang:

Cheers.
 
Just a little photograph showing six fermenters being comforted by six little Camemberts showing their first signs of white mould. 11c degrees and 96 % humidity.

How do you adjust the humidity for your cheese? I'm going to start attempting to make some cheeses and was thinking of sharing <gulp> hubby's brew fridge - don't feel sorry for him - he's got 3!
 
I guess I'm lucky that the chest frezeer adjusted to run at 10c to 13c seems to produce enough moisture to run at about 94 to 96% humidity.
You need high humidity when maturing cheese.
I bought a little elcheapo hygrometer off eBay for the job which seems to do the job efficiently.
