DIY Chiller Plans "I found your chiller design on the Internet just as I was on my way to Home Depot to build my own chiller. I used a design similar to Don Carner's, but added a cold water bath circuit. Perhaps this could be submitted as an addendum to Don's design that is posted. Your construction description applies to my design as well." -- JHR Diagram & Instructional Notes

The 18" x 18" x 23" measurement is the external dimensions of the refrigerator.  I also recommend keeping the freezer section's remaining dead space filled with soft cold packs.  This seems to help the freezer more efficiently chill the water bath.  -- JHR
