Might be time for some more taps on that bad boy!

Empinball, I love your build. I am glad I found your pics. Can you post or send me info on the pipe tower? Size, the connection for the faucets, where did you find the parts etc?

Thanks

Finally got a (rather poorly lit) picture of the twins now that the room is put back together after painting. My two Kegco 309's...one's a two tap and the other's a three tap. I'm going to buy another lamp for the one on the right tomorrow (Target...$13) since this room is pretty dark with the light blocking curtains and no overhead fixture.

How do you like your Kegco K309's? Any concerns, etc? I'm considering buying one.

I've had the one on the left for over a year. When I recently decided I wanted more capacity so I could brew more frequently I had absolutely no reservations about buying another one. That should answer your question.

Definitely get the Perlick upgrade, and swap out the 5' beer lines for longer lines (I went with 12') before you tap the first keg...just makes for a cleaner and easier swap.

+1 on the perlicks... you cannot go wrong with them... they JUST WORK... and they work forever.

I love her.

Absolutely!!! I love the map. Sorry but I'm going to have to steel this idea and make one of Michigan.

HOW DARE YOU.... Ha, I appreciate it. I bought mine from Beercapmaps, but I'm sure you can make your own for cheaper.

I just updated my keezer thread with build pics. I hope it helps you out.
It's an inner/outer collar design. 2x6 Pine inner and 1x8 Oak outer.

Id make one of Colorado, but that would just be a rectangle of wood, and nobody would know it was a state unless I told them.

Thanks!

My kegerator is in the garage in Florida, don't want my beer sitting in the faucets going bad and bugs getting in, so I built mine with the taps inside. Standup freezer holds 5 cornys on the bottom, 3 on top. Fiberglass-over-foam panel with taps hinges out for access. Dual pressure manifolds.

That's really smart! The only bad thing is, when you have friends over, your opening it up a lot and letting all the cool air out.

Fricken brilliant.

That is Sweet!!!

What is the ...or how did you make the part the faucets are in?

Yes, but no bugs, and cold all the way to the taps!.................

That is my ideal kegerator. I have a regular fridge converted and have three taps. It's a freezer on top type so its less than ideal.
Where did you come by the fridge?
I look over CL all the time and haven't been able to find one

Got my 650ss flow control in with new SS shanks and tail pieces. They're pretty cool.
Never mind the fridge surface, I wanna vinyl over it or something.

After reading through countless of threads trying to figure out how i'll be building my keezer I finally finished. Still need to add some tap handles of course! But I had my first kegged beer yesterday and what an awesome feeling!

And that awesome feeling will continue for quite some time. Just don't over indulge TOO much when enjoying the fruits of your labors and admiring your own handy work...

Looks great!

Finally got mine presentable to post. Taps on the left and fermentor on the right. Each side temp controlled separately and have more taps on the way as well as drip tray. Realized I didn't have any chalk to write on it. Can't wait to brew and get things on tap. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1438058230.147990.jpg
