Amazing, they must have stumbled upon these kegs like game, set, match; we're gonna make bank in a week. I bought 4, I got 5 now. Jesus. Can't control myself. I love these things. Thanks for the heads up, I think.
 
What kind of taps and shanks did you use?

The faucets are Shirron's (ventamatic) and the shanks are the elbow shanks that you use in a tower.

I originally had 4" shanks, but they're too long. If you don't use black spacers that come with the shanks and use a washer on either side instead, the tower shanks fit perfect into that extreme cooler.

Now get crackalackin'.

In other news, 2 have shipped to me today and I'd like to make a suggestion.

Check this thread out to make sure you can use a shorter hose for the cooler.


I just installed my first one (I have 5 more in the garage) and am hopeful that this will allow for proper carbonation and dispensing in the cooler.

I didn't know that I needed a thread for the build. I basically merged the greatest of some of the pioneers on this board

I think I originally saw EdWort's design and then I saw the "shizzle" over on the greenboard and liked the fact that if you offset the taps, you could fit two in there.

I originally had to tap a regulator and connect it to a paintball filler, but when I say BM's rolling draft system, I used the Kobalt regulator that he used because it's more compact.
 
They are just like her shoes they breed

And purses too! Just checked and they're still in stock. Do I need them? Nope! But at that price I'll find uses for them. SWMBO got me two of the new 2.5gal. cornies last year and they're awesome! But those were $120+ so this is a pretty good deal. But, it's not as good as two for $75.
 
Anytime you order kegs there will be shipping involved.

There are places with fixed shipping, and places that ship cheaper, which is why shipping absolutely needs to be included in the price.


Theres a guy on ebay selling 5g cornies for $21 each, with $33 shipping for 5. Thats $27 a piece, and the absolute cheapest I've seen. Not anywhere near $18 each.
 
Thanks everyone, you all cost me another $109 bucks (I have to pay CA sales tax) for more beer gear. This is an attempt to force myself into kegging, or at least have the option to keg. Now...what else do I need?? Is it on sale too?? :eek: Seems I just learned how to use a capper yesterday...

perfect opportunity to bring up the EXPANDED keezer option :)
 
Pulled the trigger and ordered one to be used as a Soda keg for the kids at family gatherings. Thanks for the tip Springer. Sure hope I don't wind up wishing I'd have ordered two. . . . .
 
AWESOME!!!! Thanks for the heads up and the code and free shipping. 2 cornies for $100. Time to take the brew to the party.
