I used a plastic planter box, I think it was about $10.00 Attached to Kegerator with 3M picture hangers(12lb with Velcro)

Nice!

@Sadu - did you ever get unclogged on the picnic tap?

@Seabrew - Yes I was able to carbonate with no additional CO2. Note that I did put in a bit of CO2 after I put the wort and yeast in just to purge any O2. Set spunding valve at 15 psi, you can see a picture of this up thread a few entries. I had 5 gals in the FV.

Check the black ball lock fitting, a guess would be the pin in the fitting isn't pushing the ball lock out post on the fermentasuarus. doesn't seem like the pickup hose is blocked

@runningfarmer - while I have an upright freezer which could accommodate the Fermentasaurus(we need an abbreviation for this thing!). I've been fermenting at room temp under pressure, both 2 ales and 2 lagers, both came out great, clean, no esters. also dumping the yeast at 3-4 days and...
