I just bought my very first kegerator; an older model Perlick kegerator off of Craigslist. It's 5' long with 3 taps but doesn't have a CO2 tank, or regulators and I'm looking to replace the hoses too. I don't currently have my new baby home yet so I don't have specifics on model # etc but I'll definitely post pics when I get it home!
I've just got some questions about what I need to get.
It's got 3 taps and ultimately I'd like to use probably 1 tap for some craft beer and the other 2 for homebrew with other variations probably at some point I'm sure. I was looking at expanding it since the beast is 5' long and has plenty of room for a bigger tower but I didn't realize how CRAZY expensive they are to replace or expand!
Will a corny keg of homebrew require a different pressure/hookup than something like a 1/3 keg from a brewery?
How big of a CO2 tank should I get?
What regulators should I snag so I can have all 3 hooked up?
Thanks in advance, I'm in the process of reading through the FAQ on the top of the forum but frankly I feel overwhelmed and I'm hoping to get parts ordered this week!
