Re: Upright Keezer?
But at least I’ll still have the brew fridge so when everything’s brewed I can just turn that down to fridge temps and we still have a spare fridge then. If your intention is to keep all your Beer at the sort of temperatures required to keep food safe, you're going to find that outside of Lagers mo...
