I'm taking a keg to the cabin this weekend, and I'm looking for a way to keep it cool-ish. It's not going to be sweltering here, I live pretty far north. I've decided on some kind of a garbage can/insulation/ice/water setup. My question is what would be the most effective way to use the insulation?
I saw a thread on here where someone just wrapped some silver insulation directly around the keg, but I was thinking some active way of keeping the beer cold (ice) would be good.
So, opinions, should I put the insulation away from the keg and fill the space in between with ice, like this:
Or should I put the insulation directly around the keg, and fill the remaining space with ice, like this:
Or I guess I could even put the insulation on the outside of the can? I'm sure it probably won't make a whole lot of difference either way, but I thought maybe someone on here would have some experience with this kind of a setup.
Thanks in advance!
