shop keezer

Post by joe_r_harvie » Thu Nov 10, 2016 9:01 pm

Hi, I am converting an old shop into my own brew shop/man cave. I want to put a freezer with temp control in it to dispense my beer. There is no permanent heat in the shop. I am worried my beer will freeze and blow up my kegs. My friend has a mini fridge in his non heated shop and his beer never freezes provided he keeps the fridge running. When he turned it off his beer froze. So my question is if I keep my keezer on will my beer freeze. If anyone has any experience with outdoor keezers or shop keezers I would love to hear how it works for you.

You could get a hot/cold temp controller and plug a light or reptile lamp into it.

Thanks I had thought of that but was wondering if the light was necessary. Outdoor pop machines don't freeze and my friends bar fridge doesn't so I wondered if a keezer would.

For beer temperature is very important, whether you have keezer or mini fridge. I have also learn the art of the temperature after some time.
