Will a 6g carboy fit into a 4 cubic ft chest freezer? I don't have the freezer anywhere near me to test, I though I would check the collective intelligence.. thanks.

Re: fitment: dumb question
I'm not so sure a 6 gallon carboy would fit into the freezer in the picture. I measured my 6.5 gallon carboy, and it's diameter was about 12 inches and the top of the airlock was just over 24 inches. Given those dimensions, it would fit in an area slightly larger than 2 cubic feet.
While the interior dimensions are probably sufficient, you lose some space in the bottom because of the compressor. Because of the lost space, and the way it changes the shape of the space in the bottom, I'm not sure a carboy would still fit.
