Lagering in a kegerator

Jsta Porter · 07-22-2009, 10:04 PM

Thanks in advance for the replies!

I am in the process of lagering my first lager. All I have to lager in is my chest kegerator. Anybody see an issue with dropping the freezer to lagering temperatures and still keeping the kegs running, as long as I adjust for proper CO2 level in the kegs? I plan on lagering this for two to three months, and I want to keep the kegerator going in the process.

Many thanks!

I lager in mine whilst serving beer and its fine.

I ferment lagers in coolers with frozen bottles (soon to be in the fermentation chiller I'm building), but I lager in the keg, in the kegerator. I have room for six kegs, so I can keep four taps live and two kegs lagering. I keep my kegerator around 35-38*F anyway.
