[jbru70]

I just came up with the idea of the century. I see free chest freezers on craigslist all the time. OMG its perfect. Chest freezers are big, water tight, insulated, they have a drain in the bottom, They are food safe.

It's brilliant. I cant believe i didnt think of it before.

And best of all I found one already

nice and you could mod the cooling to be a chiller, you'd proabbally have to turn it to it's lowest setting though.

Great idea.

Theres ur thread yogurt_21 "DIY Water Chiller"

Take a small chest freezer , drill a inlet and outlet hole and you got yourself a cheap thermostatically controlled chiller. Add some filter floss and you could supplement the mechanical filtration as well

if you put one of these on it you can control it exactly to the temp you want.

only problem is you can burn up the condensor pump in the freezer from the constant on off, so I have heard.
