Has anyone seen any setups where people have outdoor lagering chambers?

Would an insulated box with a heat pad or something similar work?

I sometimes use a garbage bag with leftover pink insulation in it. Like, the pink insulation wraps around it, and the garbage bag keeps it dry. I think it keeps the temperatures fairly stable, but if there's a long cold snap, I'll have to bring them inside.

I was thinking for trying that with a 10 gal keg. No need to protect just need to make sure the blow off doesn't freeze.

I was thinking of building a small insulated box and hook up a heat belt to make sure it doesn't freeze.

I was concerned with airborn bacteri

I would think it's fine as long as it's got an airlock on it?

yeah and im sure if its somewhat air tight then it could keep the bacteria out.

my problem is i wanna make 3-4 lager this year but only have room for 1 bucket in my lagering chamber

I wonder if an old school root cellar would work

building one is another story
