Unless you have a super-insulated cabinet that would hold the temperature I wouldn't bother. Once you start the compressor back up it would have to pull the heat back out of the keg/beer. Two steps forward, one step back, so to speak.

Smile maxi 310 help

Hi
Looking for a spot of help. I recently bought a maxi 310 beer cooler from ebay and unfortunatley didn't get any instructions with it.Could you tell me are you supposed to fill the unit with water and if so how much? I'm very new to all this so any help would be most greatful.
P.S If you have any instructions for the maxi 310 could you please please either email them to me or photo copy them and send them to me in the post I would be more than happy to pay for any out of pocket expences.Cheeky I know but if you don't ask you don't get.
Cheers Neil
