I have a used 3 tap tower. It is air cooled not glycol. It comes with shanks, elbows and faucets. The faucets are the traditional style not perlicks. It was in service until this morning when I installed a new 5 tap tower. 100 plus shipping.

I am cleaning out my brew room and have some extra items that I have no use for. All prices are OBO - One wort chiller with approx 3/8x25' copper tubing with lines and garden hose adapter $30 - One thermowell. It has half inch female threads to accept a common thermometer but has one inch male...

All pm's replied to. Shanks and perlick taps are sold.

Hello everyone. I'm sorry about the delay, I had some family things come up right after I posted. Anyways I still have everything, and will be getting back to the people who sent me a PM this evening after work. I have updated the first post to include some pictures. I didnt get a picture of the...

Im moving and I'm selling some extra equipment I have laying around. Everything is in good working condition. I'm only selling because most of these items are doubles, to make more room and upgrade my system. I would prefer to meet locally, but if not Ill ship everything (besides the full co2...

1/4" line has a resistance factor of .85 psi/ft. 3/16 line is about 2.7 psi/ft. So as you can see your 1/4 lines are not cutting it. I personally serve everything in my kegerator at 12 psi at 38 degrees with ten feet of 3/16 line. That's pretty much the proven equation around here. I get...

My favorite brewpub, Dragonmead (I suppose its technically a microbrewery) is just south of Troy in Warren. Its on 11 mile rd on the S/W corner of groesbeck and I-696. They have great beer and great people. The owner really enjoys it and takes great care of the place. The staff know about beer...

I had the same problem that you are having. When I was looking, it seemed like every "stainless" stout faucet was not completely stainless. The only stout faucet that I found that was completely stainless was the perlick faucet. They have it for sale on their site and it was about $125 last time...

I'm glad you got it running again! On my last kegerator, I got it all put together and shortly after it completely died. I'm glad that yours was a simple fix.

For what its worth, you can "hotwire" it to start even with a bad relay. I take no responsibility for what you do though. I did this once and it worked, but its obviously not ideal...

You should test the overload/start relay. Its on the compressor. If that goes bad it will not allow the fridge to start. If it is the culprit, you can order a new one for around 15 dollars. You can also test the compressor with an ohm meter. As demonstrated here...

I have a regular size upright, freezer on top, fridge for my kegerator. I can fit 5 kegs, 3 in the back and 2 in the front. I could fit six if I removed the plastic shelf from the inside of the door. I also have my co2 cylinder outside the fridge. If it was going to be somewhere in the main...

If you're getting stainless faucets and shanks, I'd go with stainless tailpieces as well.

the point behind the 75/25 mix is to use the high pressure of the nitrogen to push the beer through the faucet/ restrictor plate, and use the 25% co2 to maintain proper carbonation. If you were to carb with co2 and push with pure nitrogen, your beer will lose carbonation and go flat.
