15” Kegco Single Faucet Kegerator (downsizing from a keezer) Nice little unit…all setup with eva and john guest.

Has anyone added either the illuminated or unlit 80mm medallion holders to their tap shanks or kegerator towers? I’m currently exploring ideas for displaying what’s on tap for a single tap tower kegerator and i like the fit and finish of the fisheye medallions often seen ion european taps...

imho a modern stainless steel forward sealing faucet design has many pluses and very few negatives. i like them even better with spring return to the off position! whereas there are a lot of potential negatives to a rear sealing faucet design, most notably the guts of the valve being exposed...

sure, could work. if you think about the commercial tower cooler fans available, they are generally a blower style fan, like a 5010 or 5020 DC in a small housing and with a flexible or rigid duct to get to the top of the tap tower…. using the premise that cold air sinks and hot air rises it’s...

a blower style fan can usually move more air than an axial or pancake fan. may be worth a try. may also be worth adding a diffuser at the top of the fan duct to disperse the cooler air horizontally across the area rather than direct it towards the lid?

As WS Smith says…. the primary differences between residential and commercial in a direct draw system will be the cooling durability/power/efficiency…. if that’s not presenting any issues for you, perhaps simply updating the serving and gas lines for better serviceability is all that’s needed...

I purchase “Beer Gas” (guinness mix - 75/25 Co2/N2) which would be used for a nitrogenated product with a stout faucet like stouts and some ales. Then there is also a 60/40 mix which would be used for a remote draw system where your lines were very long and the additional pressure was needed -...

agreed. the force carb at high pressure approach can be unscientific and produce unpredictable results, whereas carbing over time at serving pressure is pretty foolproof. glad OP got it sorted tho,

in my experience foaming is typically caused by any combination of a few problematic issues, temperature differential between beer and lines/tap. resistance in the serving line too low for the carb level in the beer. physical barriers or restrictions in the serving line thst can cause...

i think carbonation cap + PET soda bottle + Co2 tank and regulator is the easiest option for very small volume cocktail,recipes. can do 1L or 2L sizes in soda bottles. After carbonation can be kept in refrigerator and pour as needed.

a dry stout on nitro will be creamy and flat with little to no carbonation feel on the tongue…. if you want more of a carbonation mouthfeel switch to CO2 only gas and a standard faucet. the restrictor plate in a stout faucet serves to effectively force CO2 out of suspension when pouring. the...

good pics of the damage to the corrugated underside here Beaver Brook Bridge Project | Westford, MA I’m originally from Littleton (hi neighbor)….

When i ran a keezer i had extra long shanks through the collar and would see condensation on the perlick faucets in hot weather. it might be worth the experiment to switch out ONE of your shanks for an extra long one to compare the difference before going all in.

As an alternative to paintball tanks you may want to also look into Sodastream tanks, which can be much easier to find at any Bed Bath and Beyond, usually cousins available and it's a drop off empty, pick up full sort of deal versus someone filling the paintball tank and you counting in them...

Something to note is that fermenting at warmer temps result in less CO2 in the finished beer before further force carbonation.... so those batches where you think they are undercarbed may be because they were fermented at bit warmer? It's less of an issue when you ferment in the 60's under...
