I have posted pics of the refrigerator.
The back is sealed, no coils exposed.
Which type of condenser do I have?
Top, sides and front I can do no problem.
So, do not add insulation on the back?
As you can see, the wall behind the refrigerator just has some plywood directly over the studs. I can easily remove the plywood and put some batt insulation between the studs, and I could also put a 1/2" or 1" Polyurethane rigid panel over that (that entire wall needs to be insulated, but I can at least start with that area); that will help keep some of the heat from the south-exposed wall away from the back of the refrigerator.
Another thought: Would keepin the refrigerator out from the wall a few inches and adding a fan blowing across the back of the refrigerator help any? If so, should it be on all the time, or should I wire it in so that it turns on when the compressor turns on?
I really appreciate all your help, and the beer I send will be much better with your assistance.
