My defrost cycle runs the same as yours does, weekly. I normally disconnect the temp sensor for a minute and it resets, however with a half barrel in there it is difficult to get at the sensor. I have noticed that during the defrost cycle my beer temp will raise a few degrees. This morning during the weekly defrost my beer temp was 47 normally it hovers around 42. My goal is 38.
