I've had a kegerator for almost 6 years now (built it while I was in college). I was happy with the wide selection of beers while in college (Madison, WI), but since graduating and moving away from the college town, my selection has greatly reduced. I can't quite finish a 1/2 bbl by myself, so I typically order 1/4 bbl kegs and the only choices are Miller Lite, Bud light, Michelob golden draft lite and Leinie's Honeyweis. I've been getting by on honeyweis, but the local liquor store just raised their keg prices by 20% and I'm ready to start drinking good beer, so homebrew here I come.
My kegerator has internal dimensions of 26"H x 17"D x 20"W. My question is, is this big enough to hold 2, possibly 3 corny kegs? When I first built my kegerator, I had to buy a low profile coupler because a regular coupler would not fit because it was too tall for the fridge. I've read online that corny kegs are the same height as a 1/2 bbl keg, but I wasn't sure how much room was needed above the kegs for hosing and connectors.
I'm going to start with 1 tap (because I don't want to buy a new drip tray yet), but I'm sure that will change in the future. But I'd like to have 1 backup keg...possibly 2. If my kegerator is tall enough, I think I can fit 3 cornys, but not positive. I have my co2 tank outside of the fridge, so I don't have to worry about that taking up space.
