    Hi, people,
    Does anybody here use a wine fridge for storing spillover stock that can't fit into their regular fridge? I'm in the market for something akin to a wine fridge to hold beer and would love any recommendations.
    Thanks!

    i am in the market for a fridge as well- i looked at wine coolers and mini fridges but have set my mind on finding a upright freezer from CL and a temp regulator from amazon. seems to be the best option for storage space and temp control, if you want to go that route.

    I have this:

    Just took a wine fridge that had groves for metal racks, took the metal racks out and slid a piece of MDF board in.

    Love it, it'll go from 45-65 and holds ~40-50 bottles I think. GE Profile. Also fits a 6-gallon carboy in case you homebrew, it's handy.

    except i didn't pay that much.

    Maybe try something like this? Looks like it has the same ledges to place a shelf on:

    I got a good deal on a Haier 50 can refrigerator and it works just fine. I purchased a temp reader on ebay for about $7. No complaints after 1 year of having it. Check it out!
