It's worth noting that commercial chillers like you find in a dairy or old vending machines have an evaporator fan that circulates air. Domestic fridges and freezers don't.

The double door fridge thing is the go. You just need some way to hang them in there. a bit of pipe from one side to the other seems to work ok. S hooks. hang up for a week. Butcher
