Just wondering what everyone's thoughts were on this setup? Besides the obvious "you can buy three 5 gallon corny kegs and a real CO2 setup for the price of $105"...
I'm well aware I could start kegging "for real" for the cost of this thing, but I don't have a refridgerator to dedicate to a 5 gallon keg/tap. So... the mini-kegs would fit nicely in the top of the family refridgerator.
Not to mention, it would also be great for taking a mini-keg or two to a friends house for a night of leisurely drinking among 2-5 friends... Note: leisurely as in, no way you are going to kill 5g.

Thoughts? Concerns?
My only question other than getting your general thoughts is, do you still prime/carb these things? I'm assuming yes b/c there is no way you are going to force carb 5L with a 16g CO2 cartridge? Pardon the newbish question, but I don't know a ton about kegging (hence another reason I want to take an introductory step into it by maybe mini-kegging).
