That's pretty much the plan, 'cept I rent at the moment, so I can't do anything permanent to the house, and it's got to fit into the spare bedroom/office/bar. I've got 3 oak barrels in the multitude of crap I left laying in my parents basement, so I'd like to put the faucets though those, and make the keg box out of oak veneer, with some nice trim. Put the whole thing on heavy duty locking casters and it's a party to go.

Edit: The barrels are small, maybe 1 gallon, about 10 inches deep if I remember correctly.

Ok, I've had it with this stupid free CAD program, here's the general idea
This with 3 small oak barrels instead of the towers, whole thing sheeted in matching plywood veneer, oak trim, and a irregular stone countertop with a thick layer of acrylic to make it easy to clean. Anybody think this is possible, or have I gone off the deep end?

Definitely possible. I ripped the compressor/coils/etc out of an old upright freezer and built an insulated box big enough to hold 4 corny kegs. Works great. It's going to go under my bar, if I ever get it done, so I just built it out of MDF and insulated it with 2" thick pink styrofoam.

Yours sounds much cooler!

I forget where I was, Houston I think, where I saw a spiggot which cooled enough on the outside of the thing and a nice thick coat of ice formed the outside..... looked awsome but I'll bet it was VERY expensive... and inefficient.


Wish I had a picture.
