5.2/5.3 cu ft. Keezer w/ 4 kegs

[tyhoward]

Can someone point me to some examples of 5.2/5.3 cu ft keezers setup for 4 ball lock kegs? Based on some measurements I've collected online it seems like this should be feasible with a 5 lb tank (although tight), however I am having trouble finding examples of anyone who has actually done it.

Thanks in advance.

you need a 7.2 for that, I have a 5.2 and it only holds 1 keg, 2 if you put one on the hump. my 7.2 will fit 4 then 2 baskets over the hump for hops and bottles

Only 1 corny in 5cu foot? Doesn't sound right... should hold 3 easy...

Thanks for the feedback. I neglected to mention in my first post that I was intending to build a collar, but I hope that would be assumed when we are talking about 4 kegs in such a small space. I currently have a 5.0 freezer and it easily fits 2, probably three (haven't tried), but I am sort of set on having 4 and I know it won't work with that freezer.

After looking around the thread Foxpaw shared I found some good info which more or less confirmed my previous beliefs. 4 kegs can fit into a 5.2/5.3 cu ft freezer, but they have to be ball lock and it is very dependent on the dimensions of the freezer. Taller models will not work. It needs to have a decent footprint.

Here are some link for the next person that comes across my thread.

just one thing to note, getting four kegs in empty is not the same as putting them in or taking one out full of beer, in such a tight space it can be back breaking
