I am planning on starting my keezer build here in the next few weeks
I am currently in the planning stage. Most likely it will be a ~7 cubic foot chest freezer, with collar. Some thoughts and questions below in regards to the gas side of things, appreciate any feedback
I would like to do 4 ball lock corny kegs, independently regulated for style (three of my own, one guest beer). I am planning to buy a taprite four product secondary regulator setup, installed inside the keezer on the back collar.
Now on the supply side of things (on the CO2 tank), I plan to get a dual body regulator. One line would supply the secondary regulators, the other line for purging kegs before filling, force carbing possibly, etc Is this a wise decision? From what I understand this is not needed, but could be handy.
If for some reason I wanted to expand to (5) kegs at some point, would there be in any issue directing the output of one of the secondary regulators into a 2-way manifold (with shut-offs) to split between two kegs if they shared the same desired carbonation?
Some other misc info I plan to go with (4x) perlick 630 SST faucets and accuflex bev-seal tubing for the wet side of things. I plan to use a A419 controller for holding temp (I already use one for my ferm chamber), and will install some type of small CPU type fan inside to move air around.
I am expecting to spend $1,000-1,500 into this build, although I do hope with careful shopping once I select all my final components I can be on the low end of that range if not below.
Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated!
