New way to ferment

Thursday, January 26, 2012 by Customer Service
My favorite wines to make are fruit wines. these include blueberry, blackberry, blackraspberry, strawberry, sour cherry, apple, dandelion, & mead. What makes mine setup unique is the fermenter. It is made from a old commercial stripped refridgerator, a 75 watt bulb and a thermostat. With the door closed it will keep the wine fermenting at a constant temperature. I have mine set so the fermentation is between 70 & 74 degrees. It uses very little electricity and I don't have to worry about room temperature.

That is cool! I see you even installed an outlet on the inside.

Chuck! What a great idea! I'll have to keep my eye out for an old junker icebox now :) Thanks for sharing!
