    Insignia Kegerator Thermostat Issue - Freezing Kegs

    Thanks for the reply. I wanted to come back and say the inkbird is the way. I tried as many things as I could with the built in thermostat in this thing, no idea where the actual reading is taken but once this thing was set to 5 it was never stopping running. Put an inkbird in between, duct...

    Insignia Kegerator Thermostat Issue - Freezing Kegs

    My Best Buy Insignia kegerator started freezing kegs a few weeks ago, after running well for a year. It has a manual 1-6 temperature dial on the back right side near the floor. I have a smart plug that can monitor energy use and also a smart wireless thermostat inside, which gives me some...

    Keg spouting air and liquid non stop with CO2 off - how to fix?

    Turns out that 95% of the Miller lite keg was frozen solid. Hence the behavior that was happening above. Turns out a frozen keg can cause all kinds of problems to your draft. Who knew? Haha The beer that did manage to thaw was disgusting, and that’s because the rest of it was still in a big ice...

    Insignia Kegerator Temperature Drift

    Mine just started doing this recently as well. I have a two tap tower on the top of it. No idea what caused it to go rogue like this but it’s been so cold in there that a keg of Miller light froze solid. I hate how the temperature dial is in the back as I’m running this as an under counter...

    Keg spouting air and liquid non stop with CO2 off - how to fix?

    This is a store bought 1/4 tall keg of miller lite (sorry) that has been in there for about 3 weeks and ran fine at tap time but had not been run for about 2 weeks. Now doing this. I assume eventually when you vent a keg at the coupler it should stop gassing and not be spouting liquid right?

    Keg spouting air and liquid non stop with CO2 off - how to fix?

    I’m thinking, maybe the beer inside got frozen somehow. Never seen this before. Was not getting anything but foam and then nothing out of the tap on the kegerator. Turned off the CO2 but the pressure looked fine. When I pin vent at the keg side I am getting nonstop air and foamy beer out of The...

    Can anyone tell me what's wrong with my regulator? Pressure won't stop climbing

    Great community here, thanks so much all. No kegs are connected, just closed couplers at either end right now. Air tank on, both port valves off, pressure rises quickly. So bad regulator, it sounds like? I assume it's easier to just buy a new one at this point, I was hopeful I may be able to...

    Can anyone tell me what's wrong with my regulator? Pressure won't stop climbing

    Dual kegco regulator, both lines shut off/closed, no kegs connected, this is what happens when I turn on the gas. HUGE pressure buildup even with the dial turned way back, can't seem to stop it. Is the regulator broken or can things be taken apart and fixed? Thanks in advance.
