Hey, guys. I've been reading on this site for a while and I decided it's time to start posting some of what I'm doing.
I currently have a home bar (more of a drink mixing cabinate) that I built a while back. At the time I had no idea that I could have my own beer on tap so the bar isn't set up well to integrate a keg system. What I am planning on doing is setting up my half fridge next to the bar and running a line to a faucet mounted on the shelf of my bar.
To keep the beer cool, I intend on running the beer line through a larger line of ethylene glycol or colored water. There will be a small water pump circulating the heat transfer medium around a resevoir in the fridge. I will be using clear lines and enclose the entire top of the shelf in a glass enclosure so that the lines can be seen. I think that the beer lines running through the colored coolant system will look pretty cool while keeping the beer nice and cold.
I am wondering if anyone has any experience with kind of set up. Any input at all would be greatly appreciated.
I'll be posting pictures of the bar's current state and my plans later on and will be documenting the build.
