I've laid hands on a spare fridge for summer fermentations/lagering etc. No more winter outdoor cold crashing.

I think you just made Icehouse.

That was good for a laugh!   ;D

Sorry to hear about the carboy.  Transferring after fermentation is MUCH less risky than tranferring wort since you now have an alcoholic beverage.  The only time I StarSan now is when I'm saving the yeast.  And most of the time I foget to do it anyway and everything is fine.  (Knocking on wood (head) now)
