My wineador

I got the wineador from Mark up and running and man does it hold a lot. Once I get the proper boxes/drawers things will be much better organized and I think I'll be able to move the rest from my cooler into it. I think that means I need to make a re-stocking spree
For the condensation issue I caulked the drain and drilled a new hole and put some tubing that drains into a container. It doesn't work 100% perfect, so ill have to wipe up some excess, but it works good enough.

what you need to keep in mind is that when that units running it's pulling water out of the air in there, the water goes to bottom, in your drain container but your constantly pulling the water from the kl,
my solution and i am suggesting this since i have several units not 1 or 2 but 8, so my sollution get a veggie bag 1gl size put as much kl in it as you can and cinch closed, place at the bottom where the water drains to the water will go right back into the kl where it should be,
heres where i cant stress enough add fans! 2 lower fronts pushing upwards 2 upper backs pushing down, at least 4 total you will need that circulation, the units internal fan is not enough,
i would get just the shelves not the drawers this way air moves more freely,
buy some bulk cedarslats 2-3" wide as long as you want measure and cut to creat some shelves to hold boxs and trays ,
just my suggestions
is that a winair e281? looks like it from drain style
also dont over crowd it now, you have no circulation you will have dead spots in there due to box's, trays, drawers etc anything that can block air movement in the way.
what i notice is when you have cedar in the wineador say 3 shelves, and you start adding cedar box's also the humidity starts to either rise or lower until all the new cedar is seasoned, thats why i recommened before to someone, to get all your wood in there now before your sticks,get it stable at the rh you want then slowly add the sticks once your at capacity and your humidity is stable the winador is solid for a while
Any chance you could post a pic of one of your fan installs? I was thinking about using one I those, but hadn't worked out the mounts and how to feed power to it.
they are wired thru the back drilled a to pull wires and use a led light power supply.
