Ok, I have browsed around online and read some of the FAQs, but I am still a bit hazy on kegging. After a break (for personal reasons) this year from homebrewing, I am looking to get back into it. This time around, I really would like to keg rather than bottle.
It appears that my first decision with kegging is to figure out whether I am going to use a fridge or chest freezer. I am looking to start with 2 kegs at a time, but would like room to expand to probably 4 kegs (cornies) on tap. Based on what I've read, it sounds like my best bet for this would be a chest freezer.
So my first questions are:
I'm sure I'll have many more questions, but this is where I'm trying to start...

So my first questions are:
- What size chest freezer will I need to be able to fit up to 4 cornies?
- Where is a reputable but relatively inexpensive supplier of kegging "kits"? Aside from the freezer/temp controller, I would be looking for the whole hog - tubing, tower, empty kegs, CO2 cylinder, etc.
- Are there any particular models of chest freezer that people would recommend?
I'm sure I'll have many more questions, but this is where I'm trying to start...
