Hey guys Today I found my drip tray overflowing with beer and a decent sized puddle of beer on the carpet under the kegerator. No faucets were currently dripping, but my first thought was I didn't close a tap completely and now I had to deal with 3-4 gallons of beer in the carpet. However...

Initially the compressor was continuously running, with a hot discharge line and cool return line. Partial frost line in one part of the freezer. Pretty much the low charge scenario you described. Now the compressor attempt to start for a couple seconds then kicks back off. It repeats this...

http://www.refrigerator-select.com/black-kenmore-16949-chestfreezer-frost-indicator-light-88-cu-ft.html There's no automatic defrost. It's a simple chest freezer. My thermostat was just set such that ice never formed inside. I do have a high flow computer fan running continuously inside so...

The coils are inside the walls of the freezer. There's never been any ice in the interior. The thermostat was set to cycle between 35 and 40. It's warmed to about 70 over the past couple days.

Where are the condenser coils on the freezer? A lot of chest freezers have them built into the sides... If that's the case you've just insulated them. Looks pretty awesome though.

In stock configuration it is running constantly, attempting to reach target temp but nowhere near it. When it was wired to the external temp controller, it was also running constantly while the temps were out of range. Prior to these problems, the compressors was triggering on and off...

Hey guys, I have a Kenmore 8.8 freezer that I converted using a collar and a Love TSX3 controller about 5 years ago. A couple days ago my temp alarm went off and the temps have been slowly climbing. I've been trying to troubleshoot the freezer and determine if it's worth fixing or if I...

thank you again for such a perfect solution! ended up not using primer. just regular gloss black spray paint. went on great. i can open my kegerator without hitting my taps!

has anyone used branded beer bottles as tap handles? my kegerator holds 4 5gal so i'll frequent have 1 or 2 commercials going along with my homebrew. i've got official tap handles for some brands but they can be a bit pricey sometimes. if i'm just trying a particular commerical for a 1 time...

sorry for the horribly late reply, got busy with life and totally forgot about posting the pics. the spacers fright101 are absolutely perfect. definitely necessary for anyone using perlicks on anything besides a tower.

is it odd that it's still bubbling at 3+ weeks?

awesome. thanks for the pics! i actually saw those same flanges when I went to look at lowes yesterday. They didn't give me the 3/4" spacing I needed tho. I noticed your perlicks are a little different so maybe the angle is bigger on my 525's b/c an extra 3/4" BARELY gives my Blue Moon handle...

cool thanks. so no harm in kegging it if it's still bubbling slightly? should i leave it hooked up to the gas at that point?

the keezer's used for storage of all things alcohol. only the main storage area is reserved for 4 kegs. there's storage on the hump and in baskets that hang from the top so there's quite a bit of other stuff in there besides the kegs that'd like to have regular access to. ah cool. you rock...
