Learn All About Wine Coolers

By Holly Peters


Temperature and humidity are very important factors in making sure that wine tastes good. Wine coolers or wine refrigerators are units that can provide wines with the temperature and humidity ideal for aging. This article will tackle a few kinds of wine chillers that you can find on the market. Read through and learn about them.

When choosing a wine fridge, consider the under the counter type as one of your options. Under the counter wine refrigerators are naturally compact, and therefore do not take up a lot of space. Moreover, since they are located under your counter, they will not stick out like a sore thumb.

Keep in mind, though, that under the counter wine refrigerators cannot store many wine bottles because of their limited capacity. If you plan to grow your collection over time, you will need to buy another refrigerator when the time comes to accommodate new bottles.

Another type of wine fridge is the built-in type. The built-in types wine refrigerators are a great choice for those who do not have space for free standing wine refrigerators. If you are going to have a built-in wine chiller, make sure that you situate it in a location where natural light cannot reach, so that the temperature inside the cooler does not fluctuate. Wine fridges that have solid doors or tinted glass are preferred because by these you can make sure that your wines are completely protected from ultraviolet rays. A fridge with a solid door or tinted glass may cost more than a regular wine fridge. Built-in wine chillers can fit naturally in any room and, since they are mounted to the wall, they do not take up space at all.

When deciding on a wine cooler for your home, you may choose one or the other, but you can also purchase both. Having both types will not really take up space, since one will be on the wall and the other under the counter. The obvious advantage of having both is more storage capacity!
