Anyone have any good leads/instructions on how to build/buy a container/chiller that will keep a lager in the 50F range (excluding fridges)?
Inexpensive being under $100.
I have a broken refrigerator, a 32 gallon cooler, 5 gallon fermentation vessels (around 2 feet tall) as available materials.
So far the best ideas I've had are running an acquarium chiller in the cooler, and using ice additions every 12 hours. For the ice I'd have to find a "ice needed to cool x volume by x degrees when the air temperature is 75."
