My roommates and I are looking to start kegging - my roommate would pay for it all as a birthday present for himself while I brew. We found a good deal on Craigslist for $350-$400 for a kegerator that holds a full half-barrel keg, or three corny kegs. The problem is it's a single-tap system. Apparently it's in great shape.
If it is as the seller says it is, would it be worth it to get it and switch out the tap for a two-tap system? We want at least two for multiple corny kegs.. Or would it be more cost-effective to just search out a fridge from scratch and construct the taps ourselves, buy a pre-built or unassembled multiple tap kit, or just keep an eye out for a complete multiple-tap system later on?
We're not too handy, so we could so some basic assembly, but the drilling and "from-scratch" builds I've seen around here are probably outside of our range, both expertise-wise and time-wise (plus the tools we'd need).
Appreciate any input. Thanks, guys.
