[Noisebridge-discuss] cold room build up

[Frantisek Apfelbeck]

Hi to everyone,
I've been "appointed" to prepare a proposal for a build up of a cold room 
for our educational project in Seoul (and my probiotics :-)). I wonder 
if there is someone who have done something like that before or has a 
“decent idea”. I’m still in the process of getting specifications from 
my colleagues what they need but it looks like that we are talking about 2-4C (36-39F) and I would guess 2.5 m (8 ft) on 3 m (9 ft) base and 
around 2-2.5 m (6.6-8 ft) hight. It may be not necessary to control the 
humidity. 

I’m now looking especially for info about cooling units and the whole 
“refrigeration” system. I’m wondering if there is any chance of hacking 
“standard” air conditioner to do the job or we have to get a specialized unit. I assume this is going to be the most expensive part.

I’ll have more info in next few days many thanks for any help. My goal is to learn how to build up a cold room and repeat that at events like CCC 
summer camps and my brewing projects because it is so handy for any food hacking/brewing.

Sincerely,

FA 

PS The project of the experimental incubator is finally in the testing 
phase, I need to update the blog in next few days, I’m failing on the 
cooling part, will give more info soon but I've made a Japanese style natto in it already!
