What do you need to do to it to get it to send an email alert? Is there an app or something for it?

There’s an app that sends notifications, but not e-mails.

Costco in Columbia has several. Looks like these were ordered and paid for, but at least they're getting them in.

I’m using InkBird ITC-308 units. Technically, it’s a temperature controller. I used one to convert a chest freezer into a kegerator to keep the beer kegs at 40*F.

I wonder if one of these can be used to age game meat... :beer:

Might have to get a second one.

A few are popping up in various Home Depot stores.

Couldn't resist. One for aging, one for freezing.

What about one for beer?

I don't think beer likes freezers... And how am I supposed to reach "6 pack" level of ab fitness with beer? :party29:

Still can’t find anything in stock and seems like home depot won’t let me order either unless it’s available.

I had to go to the store, but I called first and had the young lady put her eyes on it before I went to pick it up. It wasn't the same model that was advertised on their site, 7.2 vs 7.0.

As luck would have it I was able to purchase a GE Garage ready 21.3 from Home Depot in Rehoboth DE the other day. Delivery scheduled for Sept. 15. It's upright obviously and a larger than we were looking for but the website allowed the purchase to go through...and they charged my card. All others when you plug in your zip code showed out of stock. I would check the websites daily in the am, that's what I did for the past 2 weeks.

Like someone suggested a few posts back, I have already ordered the ITC-308 so I can set the temperature in the second freezer to 40° for aging. I'm pretty stoked.

It seems that Home Depot has these lined up to sell for Labor Day:

These things multiply. If you buy small, you run out of room and end up with like 3 of them like me. Not necessarily a bad thing given redundancy if one decides to give up the ghost (I have sensors and alarms in them all). Just make sure they aren't all on the same circuit due to the startup surge for the compressors (if they all try to start at the same time, can be problematic with regards to popping the breaker). Also, don't put on a circuit protected by a GFCI.

Love having the extra storage to take advantage of deals.....when I see rib racks on sale i'll buy like 10 of them, drop in the freezer, and smoke them over the winter.

Just make sure you are actually rotating/eating what you put in there. Even in the deep freeze, nothing lasts forever.

What did you use for alarms?? looking into that myself

I do the same thing with turkeys every year. I usually buy about five around TG when they are cheap and make them throughout the year..

Thanks,
I have 2 chest freezers and a spare basement fridge/freezer that I wanted to monitor

About 17 bucks on eBay. This'll work in the kitchen with the freezer in the basement.

If you look a bit you can find a vendor selling it for less. I got mine for $14.

Did some browsing for freezers today. Our hand-me-down freezer keeps freezing shut.

I think it's easier to find ammo.
