I'm starting the planning early, so this is where it begins. After littering our basement with case upon case of beer, I think I've convinced the wife (not intentionally, but who am I to complain?) to back me on a keg station setup. Earlier this year, we renovated the basement, and put a couple of wing walls at one end of the room:
On the right, we put cabinetry, a counter and space for the wine fridge:
It's an old photo; the counter's on there now. On the left, it's still open, though I was smart enough to install several elec receps (one of them switched ). Check out that fiiiiine drywall job, baby:
We've talked it over and wifey supports my ambitions to put a kegging setup there, so I'm thinking we'll use the same cabinetry (more storage for glasses and stuff is never bad) and build it in. I'm also thinking that I'd like to keep my mini beer fridge there for keeping bottles chilled. So...suggestions are needed. Should I install wall cabinets and permanently install a tap tower? That's where I'm leaning right now...perhaps putting a chest freezer under a counter with a temp regulator, and just sliding it out when I need to exchange kegs or mess with anything. Is this foolish? I've never kegged, but I'm learning what I need to get started. Any suggestions will be appreciated!! I'm excited as hell...
