The cellar was completed last week with the work done by a professional this time. Excellent work and he had done several before this. The cooling unit is a CellarPro 1800 XTS. It's sized about 20-30% larger than the cellar. The temps are holding a 56-58 or so. Humidity 60-65%. I could reduce the temperature range but the manual says leave the range at 4 degrees. So I"m guessing the range inside the bottles is 1-2 degrees.

The cellar needs more mass as we're at about 1/3 the bottles we had 9-10 years ago. The wine racks were brought from the old house and only bought the table top one.

Looks good, but you need a Screaming Eagle wood case to add credibility....like a certain poster always shows.

I do know someone that has them. I'll have to ask for one. I used to have a lid.
