I know its not shiny, thought you guys might like it.
Its been about 30c at the brewery this week, a little too hot for the beer. Made a makeshift cool room from a large packing crate and an air con unit. Cost £40 for the crate.
It will hold 10 firkins and 2 pins and a tub of isinglass, Just needs insulating later.
Got down to 12c.

 
if you put some air holes in can i live in there until we get the British weather back
 
Thought i'd seen this correctly - the aircon unit is in the box too? wouldnt that defeat the object as surely it will heat up in use too?
Just wondering as i have a small wash room and in the future i am thinking of ripping my 15 year plus aging fridge freezer apart to do such a job. But was going to enclose the compressor in a lined box and the 'radiator' grill off the back and vent the air out side just leaving the freezer and fridge elements exposed in the room.
