I've got two. I don't have the space or capacity to really support much more than that, especially since I'm pretty much the only one who drinks beer around here.

Yeah, but I've seen how much you actually drink! :D



Two tap Sanyo for me as well, I plan on a keezer if I ever move to a house with a basement. I 'bottle' condition my kegs at room temp until they're ready to go in the kegerator and I'm finally building up my stock.
 
3 on my kegerator, the fridge only fits 3 kegs. I have a chest freezer that holds 6 that I use for conditioning and I pour samples with a cobrahead. I have another chest freezer that holds 12, but it also holds 6 fermentors so I used it for production instead.
 
This poll should have been not "how many did you install" but "how many SHOULD you have installed".

I have 4 but should have done 6. My freezer's big enough to hold 7 kegs, so I have 4 on tap, 2 on picnic taps, and one lagering. 6 would have been a problem as I don't have the width on my wall to do it nicely.

Nice setup. How far does the beer travel outside the fridge?

About 4 feet. The setup's been changed to no longer go through the lid of the freezer as I'm cooling that 4' of beer line with copper piping circulating coolant fluid with a pond pump (copper piping doesn't really bend so it now all comes through the side of the freezer). I added cooling as even with the 3/16" narrow line and only 4 feet, I was getting a lot of foam.

In the summer when it's more humid, the taps are cold enough to actually drip. (Drool) :)

5 Plumbed on my tower. 4 have faucets the other is waiting for me to get my stout faucet and beer gas equipment sometime later this year.

BINGO! I'm getting my list together for my keezer conversion. It's a 15 cubic foot Crosley I got for $0. I just ordered 10 cornies so I don't know how many I can fit in there (7? 8?) but I was thinking of starting with 3 taps or maybe saying screw it and just going for 5. I figure not everything in the keezer will be tapped and may have a couple cornies lagering.

Input anyone?
