With the warmer weather in recent days the temperature in the shed was getting a bit on the high side so I had a look on ebay and managed to pick up a larder fridge for £40 which I have now rigged up as a fermentation fridge. Despite my shoddy woodwork and and wiring skills it seems to be working! The brew in the fridge was being heated with a fishtank heater initially which as you can see is still in the FV. This is really not too hard to do and I followed information on these 2 links without any issue.

The only difference with mine was using extension sockets on longer lengths of cable so the plugs had a bit more range.
The control unit isnt actually boxed yet as my case didnt arrive in time but it should be ok in its prototype form for now (hopefully!):electric:
