Hi, I just want to share some pictures of my small keggerator made of a Frigidaire chest freezer. This one controls not only freeze temperatures, but also higher temperatures. Set up the easy way in one day. The advantage of this freezer, is that the height is enough to accept the height of the keg plus extra room, same way with the CO2 tank.

Just wondering... did you override the original freezer controls?

Yes I did, I purchased two controls from amazon, either the RANCO ETC-111000 or the Johnson Controls Digital Thermostat Control Unit - A419ABG-3C, both of them work well.

FWIW, the A419 is what I use and it works well. More details as to why I like it here: http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/temperature-controller

The Ranco is here if you're curious: http://amzn.to/2epiVRz

Cheers,
