Using plastic drainpipe as described below. Assembled by user R. Turner with a capacity of 6 cases. How should the wine be stored in the cooler? In any fashion which keeps the bottles on their sides, and which provides for reasonable air circulation between the bottles for temperature consistency. A small collection may be stored on the existing shelving; however, it is considered preferable to remove the shelving and place the wine in some sort of wine racking arrangement. Several sources provide custom wooden wine racks, such as those maple ones supplied by the Wine Rack Shop. Simple, "tinker-toy" type rack kits are available at most import outlets and similar stores. An inexpensive approach is to use small sections of plastic underground drainage pipe (standard 4" diameter, perforated), stacked in the fridge like logs. A FREE set of plans are available upon request to build a custom-fitted wooden wine rack (pictured above and on the Home page). |
