Hi,
I am thinking of getting a kegging system set up even though Ive only brewed four batches (my fifth is coming this week). Ideally, I would get to corny kegs and put them inside a kegerator with two taps.
My first, ancillary question does anyone see anything wrong with that sort of setup?
Here is my main question: The only place to put a kegerator in my row house is on carpet, in the main room of the house. I live with four roommates, and they (like me) would strongly prefer not to have beer spilled all over the carpet and have the place start smelling like a frat house. Has anyone come up with a system that avoids the smell/mess issue? Is there at least a way to mitigate the issue of beer spilled on the carpet? I saw the link to the stainless steel drip pan, and that sounds like a good start, but I was wondering if anyone else had any good ideas. Putting it on non-carpeted floor is not an option.
I suppose that I could just put a sign up demanding that people pour slowly and carefully. However, Im sure that there will be a party where people will be spilling.
Thanks.
