    Wanted to have 3, but the fridge I got was just a hair too small for it. No worries. It has plenty of room for bottles, plus a freezer for ice and ice cream, and a drawer in the bottom for more beer, or parts/ingredients. It's basically a taller Sanyo.

    I finally got my taps hooked up and operational. Used a plaque my Better Half bought for me that was not being used and it worked out pretty nice, I think.

    Salute! :mug:

    I just stumbled into this thread because I was going to start an identical one and decided to do a search. Apparently I've been here before, though, because I voted for the picnic tap option. I was going to do a poll like this because I have a keezer collar with 5 perlicks and a stout faucet, but my keezer can hold 10 cornies (I think...so far I know it can hold 8 plus a 6.5gal carboy). I'm thinking of doing something crazy and upgrading to 8 taps, with two kegs cold conditioning/carbing. I'm already one of the 15 people with six or more, and I just can't stop...

    4 right now in my beer fridge, but after seeing all the beautiful keezers on here, i think i must build one soon! then maybe 6 or 8 should be enough (for a while).

    I voted 3 because I have a 3 tap tower for my kegerator on the way.
    Currently I have 2 picnic taps on 2 kegs right now.

    Ironically I only have 1 gas line coming into the kegerator... I need a splitter...

    I've got eight - five on the main Jester-style keezer, and three on "weezer" the latest little guy that lives in the garage. I'm horribly tempted to build another one out of a mini fridge and a two tap tower to hang upstairs.

    (Holy crap, I just realized how old this thread is!)

    I have 2 picnic taps. I found real taps were too much of a PITA.

    I don't brew enough to keep all 20 taps loaded all the time.:eek: I do try though.

    I do brew enough to keep 14 taps loaded though.:rockin:

    6 taps are for taking brew on the road & larger parties setting up outside.:mug:

    I got my 3rd keg for Christmas, but I'm currently debugging leaking issues out the nut/barb joint for the gas disconnect (actually, I'm not sure how it's supposed to seal, period), so, depending on how you look at it, either three, or zero. Hoping to fix that and get the hefeweizen and lager #1 on gas this weekend.

    EDIT: Oh, "picnic taps only" counts as zero. That'll learn me not to read...

    What he said.

    I try to brew at least one, 10gal batch every other week (the holiday were slow, however) but more often than not I brew two, 10gal batches every two weeks. Even then I always run out fast.

    you're talking about this, right?

    do you have a nylon flare washer in the MFL connection?

    Recently upgraded from 4 to 8. One's dedicated to seltzer, so technically 7 beer taps.

    Yep, that's it, and nope, no washer. It's my first time building a keg line (I ordered it pre-built from KegConnection before), and it's what the LHBS lady gave me as the connector I would need for my gas disconnect.

    I was going to pry it out of the gas line and take it back to the LHBS for a replacement. You may have saved me extra manual labor.
