I'm going to buy three 5 gallon buckets just to be safe. At the very least they can hold the extra bags of ice and they'll do enough to cool down the cornies.

Have you had an opportunity to see how it performs at 80F yet? I just built a 3 tap, 6 pass (doubled up the lines) for a party next weekend that starts at 2pm. Temps could be 90F (or 65F, who knows) and I'm really freaking out if I should buy some 5 gallon buckets and ice my kegs to pre-chill...

It looks like a 4 pass cold plate. You can get them from 1 pass to 8 (or more?). Once you go past 2 taps, the stainless steel tubing starts getting expensive and space consuming. The aluminum cold plate has stainless steel lines running through it (approx. 12'-18' per pass). I built a 3...

I overextended myself and volunteered to brew a few batches of beer for a wedding this summer without any thought to how to serve it. I've already purchased a nice 50's aluminum cooler but now I need a cold plate. Needs to be at least 3 pass as that's how many beers I promised, but 6 pass...

I got my mini-fridge from Craigslist for $35, much cheaper than buying new if you're willing to shop around. At that price, if I ruined it by cutting in the wrong place, I could afford to buy another one. Maybe you aren't in an area where there is an abundant supply of used fridges but its an...
