Two pin locks do not fit on the bottom, and my measurements say ball locks are no good either. The little shelf bridges the hump and the floor and is the only way to get a third keg in. As for a carboy, I can try to check tomorrow, but I would guess you will need a little shelf t make it wide...

Not sure if anyone is "following" this, but made some progress over the last week, despite being setback by a day and a half of the flu... Nearly done, really. Collar is completed and installed, ended up using a lid on the freezer to hold it in place and then rope caulked it in for an...

Got the collar stained with two coats of one step polyurethane/stain mix, just need to sand it now. Weather stripping will go on in the next day or two so I can check for airtightness and then I can install all the (already assembled) temp controller and shanks this weekend. Screw on the lid and...

I can fit 3 pin locks and a 5# CO2 tank with a single body regulator inside my 5cuft (Kenmore, I'm pretty certain) freezer with a nice tall collar. I've got a thread going somewhere here about the build. I'll post pics of the inside in the next couple days, but I had to make a little stand to...

:) Ya, it'll live in a small pool shack during the summer, so the size is nice both for floor space and for mobility. Which reminds me that I need to build a rolling little cart for it eventually. It's also small enough that I could easily see it fitting into even fairly small apartments and such.

The rest of my equipment came in over the last few days. Ebay aquarium thermostat is here and wired up, kegs, reg, CO2 tank, and faucets from KegConnection arrived today. The Perlicks look beautiful, can't wait to see them install on the stained collar. Also, I can confirm that 3 pin locks, a...

Wired up one of these for a keezer tonight (have to actually install it into the keezer still, but did all the wiring and testing) and it worked great. Wanted to thank everyone who posted pics, diagrams, and info - I couldn't have done it without your help.

Ok, I could add them in a reply... Weird. Anyways, there it is. I'll add some photos of the inside later, if anyone wants to see the "keg stand" or the lip/electrical/kegs and reg once I install them...

I'm getting near the mid point of this build, so I thought it was time to post about it... The freezer is a 5cuft Kenmore (I bought a ~15cuft freezer on CLs for $75, but decided to swap around my current food freezer so it wouldn't take up so much room in the house. The collar is 1x12" glued...

How's the cola from this company? Does it taste closest to coke ore pepsi? I'm almost done with my keezer and I've planned room for a soda water keg and want to have syrup for a few flavors (and probably have some gin and rum in a pump bottle, too :p). Hoping to add the second reg and faucet...

So how did this turn out for you? Was it just an initial temperature stabilization or did you have some other issue?

Did the tank come full or did you have it filled? Are you sure it was filled properly? Since it's a new kit, have you checked for leaks?

Doesn't glueing veneer to the skin of a freezer dramatically reduce its ability to radiate heat out and cause the compressor to work much harder?

Thank you!

So I bought a huge (15+ cu ft) chest freezer off CL last winter and I'm getting around to putting together a keezer now that it's Spring. Originally, I was going to use the big freezer and mount a countertop and coffin box on top to make a kitchen island/bar counter out of it, but now I'm...

I need just a quick bit of help here... I'm going to get one of these aquarium controllers for my keezer project and I have a few questions: 1. My own searching on eBay found this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250810937792#ht_3835wt_938 and some comments in this thread...

That looks great! Good work.

Hop pellets are little shredded hops leaves packed together that break up as they are saturated. Try throwing one into some water and see if it looks like your floaties... I'm betting it does - you are describing them pretty much spot on.

So what happened with the flat rate shipping? Was it put back in place in February and taken down again or just never reinstated? When building an order I'm being shown ~$25 shipping. Is flat rate coming back or has that ship sailed?

Holy schnike. My SWMBO would kill me. This motivates me to get to work on the keezer.... fast.
