Keezer Moisture

[Airborneguy]

How do you all deal with keezer moisture? Mine is collecting quite a pool at the bottom and I don’t feel like removing all of the kegs to clean it. I tried the drain but it doesn’t work because of the decorative base the builder crafted.

I was thinking of putting one of these closest/fun safe moisture bags inside. I can’t come up with any downsides to this but maybe someone here has input?

I use a pair of EvaDry 300 moisture collectors with 40mm fans mounted to them to drive the keezer air into the dessicators. Works great!

Cheers!

Are they necessary or just to maximize the effect?

The fans make a profound impact. I just stick them together using ~1" squares of self-sticking Velcro.
This pic shows an 80mm fan I had on hand before I switched to the 40mm ones I bought later...

Cheers!

I hung one of these in my Keezer. Works great.

This is the one I was planning to use.

I bought a 3M Command stick-on hook, dried off the spot where I wanted it, and hung the sack. It's full of water now and the inside of the keezer is fairly dry.

Damp rid works, which is actually just a basket of calcium chloride hanging above a larger bucket. You can buy calcium chloride in a bulk bag.

What about those cheapo renewable de-humidifiers they sell for gun safes? I bought a couple of those. They absorb moisture. then you plug them into the wall, to they dry out to be used again.

I use Damp-Rid plus a couple of old hand towels towels stuck between kegs on the freezer floor that can quickly wick excess (as in the case of a leaky poppet).

I ordered damp rid last night. It took 3 towels to mop up all the moisture this morning. I think I last cleaned it two weeks ago.

I use the EvaDry 300 like @day_trippr has pictured. Has kept my keezer dry for the last two years now. It's a plug in unit to self-heat and dries itself out as well. They're pretty cheap on Amazon, I think 30 bucks?

I canceled the first order and grabbed one of these. If it lasts, it will be much cheaper than continually buying one-use bags. Thanks!

It should serve you well! Mine is still running strong. I plug it in maybe every other month or so to dry it out. Humidity is pretty low over here in CA, so it isn't working as hard as in other areas of the country.
