Does /ck/ have a mini fridge? I''m thinking of buying one so I dont have to walk all across the house just for a beer or a coke.

Looks like I can get a sold one for about a hundo should I do it?
>>
Imagine being too lazy to walk to the fridge to get a drink. Just get a mobility scooter you fat lazy cunt.
>>
I've had mine since freshman year of college and I'm an old man. It lives in the basement on top of another fridge that we use for drinks. The mini fridge is for my pickles.
>hundo
I guess? Maybe look into slightly larger, apartment fridges on Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist. Hell, even Walmart and Home Depot have apartment fridges under or around $200 and they're over double the size of a mini fridge and have a freezer of usable size. If those benefits don't matter then yes: mini fridge.

lazy fucking bastard.
>>
>>21711603
That's why I have kids.
>>
nah, you need the exercise fatty
>>
>>21711569
Consider this: If you're too lazy to walk across the house to retrieve a beverage, are you going to somehow not be to lazy to stock an additional fridge.

I'm guessing the answer is no.
>>
>>21711569
I don't drink that stuff but I do have a mini fridge in my living room oddly enough.
It's were I keep my tobacco stuff, weed junk and sometimes my phone in a metal box inside, if I get to gettin wild
all things considered you should pick one up if it's that cheap
>>
>>21711620
No, you have kids because you’re irresponsible.
>>
>>21711603
It would also free up space in my main fridge for more food
>>
>>21711569
If you're going to get a small fridge make suree it's a real fridge, not thermoelectric trash.
>>
>>21711708
Would I have to hook a real one up to a water line? whats the difference?
>>
>>21711710
He means it uses a compressor not a piezo
>>
>>21711569
used to have one, until i killed it, was pecking away at the ice with a knife, it needed to be defrosted, poked a hole in the hollow ice tray, the gas leaked out
>>
>>21711720
any recs for shit that uses a compressor?
>>
>>21711722
hmm dont think I'll use ice that much in the winter.I have plastic molds I use for big ice cubes
>>
>>21711724
I only have experience with a 20yo Magic Chef that I got for free from a classroom
It's pretty resilient but won't make ice unless the fridge is fully stocked, but I think that's not unusual for mini fridges
>>
>>21711724
magic chef from home depot. get something with a dedicated freezer. they're time based (no PID controller) so when you load them up you'll have to adjust the settings, but the relative value is quite high. when I bought my house, I used my mini fridge/freezer for a couple months.

I don't power it.
But it saved my ass, when it was all I had.
Also used it to brew kombucha
Now it's also holding some lamps too.

You will never be cool enough for a mini fridge.

>so I dont have to walk all across the house
is your house layout that bad?

I have a wine fridge
exclusively for my fancy juices (I don't drink alcohol)
which is at my coffee / tea station in the middle of the living room
both my wife's and my office, the living room and the kitchen are on the ground floor so it's literally just <10m to walk there
we deliberately only put bedrooms, hobby rooms and the Sauna upstairs
>>
>>21712414
Its 4k square feet so it is a little bit of a trip, althought its mainly a pain when friends are drinking on a game and it takes me a minute to walk and grab a beer
>>

based jeff

No, I thought of buying one but then I remembered I only drink water.
>>
>>21712508
How do you make your water?

From the sink through a filter, then in a glass bottle and then I drink it.

You should step your game up anon. If you drink only water, I imagine you are in some way health conscious. It's worth it to process your water more than just filtering.

I won't go into my whole process because nobody asked, but I'll offer a few unsolicited recommendations. You should consider adding some trace minerals, magnesium bicarbonate, colloidal silver, and food grade hydrogen peroxide to your drinking water.

Your tap water isn't exactly rich in healthy minerals to begin with, and it is stripped further of minerals through whatever filtration process you use. Magnesium bicarbonate is the most bioavailable form of magnesium which exists, and it assists hydration like nothing else. Combining colloidal silver and hydrogen peroxide produces an explosive reaction which imparts active energy into water, and they each sanitize, preventing the growth of harmful bacteria.

Magnesium bicarbonate is a potent base and can be in part offset with hydrogen peroxide. I add about 3 drops of lye per 2.5 gallons to my drinking water to make it slightly alkaline. You can also offset basicity with some lemon juice.

Like I said I know you didn't ask, but I hope you will take into consideration.

I have a reverse osmosis filter. I use a high mineral salt to add to my water.

Even without my filter the water is quite good because I live next to a mountain and that's where the water comes from.
>>
>>21712587
I live in the foothills of a major mountain range, and my municipality delivers some of the cleanest water in the country. But still, I also filter it through 3 stage RO and process it beyond that. I have the best drinking water in my region.

I built my process with information from these posts: https://web.archive.org/web/20220702225056/http://www.eytonsearth.org/earthcures/view-all-posts/

Adding mineral salts to your water is the first step you should take to making your filtered water healthful, so you've got it down. I don't mean to be pedantic. I am just saying that there is much you can do with relative ease to make your drinking water like as unto an unpolluted mineral spring.
>>
>>21712537
>>21712601
No worries anon, thanks for the info. I'll read on it and consider your advice :)
>>
>>21712605
Thanks. All the best to you.
>>
>>21712617
Cheers fren, have a good one :)

Just get a used one off of marketplace or a thrift store or 2nd and appliance store. People are always throwing away mini fridges because they realized they don't use them. I've gotten like 4 mini fridges for free in the last 10 years (I don't use them either I have 1 in storage and cleaned the rest and gave them to to friends and family)
>>
>>21712587
man that's nice, the water where i'm at is dogshit. it tastes like chalk and it leaves tons of residue on everything. even through a filter it still tastes like ass, i keep bottled water around for that reason

I know what you mean, I used to live in Greece for a while and where I lived the water was very bad, literally everyone I knew had a water filter and it still tasted bad. One of the biggest advertisers on TV is a water filter company. That's not a knock on Greece, I love the country and I had an amazing time living there, but still they should fix their water problem.
>>
i've heard they take the same amount of power/$/hr as a full sized fridge
