Egads! Frozen Taps!

[jma99]

Here is SE Michigan its COLD
Low tonight: -6!

I just tried to fill my growler from my keggerator in my garage, and its frozen.

No Beer??!!

I made sure the fridge was turned off, then I placed my drop light in the fridge and closed the door.

Should this thaw out my system?

Anything else I should be on the watch for?

boil water and pour in the freezer section

Well,

I just found a new use for the wife's heat gun!

I opened the tap and used the heat gun on the frozen plug in the line, and moments later........Beer!

I noticed in your brewery pics that we have the same 10 gal fermenter.
If you ever need or want another there is a guy in Toledo who sells them for $15.

haha. that's the guy i bought them from. doug, right?

and shipping to texas is a bit more, but still an excellent deal. i intend on getting more for grain storage soon, as well as another 10 gal fermenter. thanks for the heads up though!
