    Kenmore Kegerator - New Top

    Yeah I have a black pipe draft tower. It's anchored very solidly. Here's what it looks like. I'm not great at applying laminate and I think a thicker butcher block top would be great with a recessed drip tray. Probably a winter project.

    Kenmore Kegerator - New Top

    I built a new top for my beer meister using a sheet of 1/2in MDF with a layer of 1/2in hardboard. I topped that with some laminate countertop sheet material. It looks okay. I will probably replace it with a piece of butcher block or granite next year. I think just plywood or mdf arent...

    Building 100% custom keg fridge? Surely someone has done it?

    Correct, but then your kegs would be on their sides. Most uprights are not large enough to have the kegs in a different orientation.

    Building 100% custom keg fridge? Surely someone has done it?

    How would you stand the kegs up? Freezers are nowhere near deep enough (or tall enough when on the front face)

    Help with old Beer Miester 40-v

    Some updates. Getting really close to pouring beer. Went from a really really nasty unit to a freshly painted good looking unit. Should be finished up this week. Got the top made and mounted today, and temp controller and fan installed. Ended up with a laminate sheet countertop with oak trim...

    Help with old Beer Miester 40-v

    Based on the fan being wired into the compressor, it only comes on with it I think. I am going to wire the controller into an outlet box and plug the fridge in as well as a 12v transformer to run a fan near the compressor and a fan inside the fridge to move air into my tower. Not just gotta...

    Help with old Beer Miester 40-v

    Or do I just leave the thermostat jumpered in the stock wiring, and hook an outlet up to my controller. Trying to decide what's best here

    Help with old Beer Miester 40-v

    Jumpered the thermostat wires and it kicked on immediately! Unit is chilling now, groans a little bit but it works. Now the question is how I wire in a new temp controller to the old compressor. Basically which wire in this connector is hot and which is neutral.

    Help with old Beer Miester 40-v

    Thanks for the explanation and I will do some testing on the thermal overload. My electrical knowledge of appliances is, as you said, limited. I'm mostly a low voltage person. What is really throwing me off is the output voltage from the "plug" going to the compressor. I'm only getting a few...

    Help with old Beer Miester 40-v

    Hello All, I recently picked up a very used Beer Meister 40-v, in need of some work. It was free because the previous owner couldnt get it to chill and wanted it out of his house (the extras included made it worthwhile. One of the kegs has an $80 deposit.) :mug: I am working on trouble...
