I've converted a fridge into a 4 tap kegerator and love it. Never did a ton of research into keezers but always thought they were pretty cool. A friend of mine asked me to help him build one and I've been working on the design and doing research and have a couple of questions I was hoping some of you guys could help me out with.
First, the chest freezer is large enough to hold 6 kegs (the number we want) with plenty of headroom and just using the compressor ledge for the co2/storage. Is there any reason other than headroom that we would need a collar? We are planning to use towers attached to the top of the chest freezer, which based on the research I've done is just metal, insulation and plastic, no lines. The collar just seems like extra work unless I'm missing something.
Regarding the towers, do we have to consider cold air circulation into them or should they stay cold enough?
Any other best practices or words of wisdom as I embark on this?
Thanks in advance for your help!
