All,

I'm putting the shell of my keezer up for sale.

The why: I have bad shoulders- lifting full kegs up and over the taps and into the freezer is just not an option any more for me. If I want to keep kegging and brewing, I need to switch over to an upright refrigerator for my next build.

The what: Whirlpool chest freezer, model WZX3115DW01, 14 cubic feet. Inkbird controller takes the place of the original controller and thermostat. Circulating fans mounted on lid. Insulated wood collar with 6 spots for taps. Roll-around platform I built for it to make cleaning and moving around the garage easier. Gets good and cold.

The disclaimers: I did not build this, I bought it as part of a buy from a fellow brewer so I don't have a lot of info on construction, but I have owned and run it for 3 years. It does have some rust in the bottom. (see photos). No tap equipment, gas lines, beer lines, or any of that are included. The magcap will come with it.

Important: this thing produces water better than Luke Skywalker's moisture vaporator on Tatooine. In my very-not-climate-controlled garage, it tends to have at least some standing water in it, regardless of how often I dry it out, and the lid will often have water that runs out when opened despite using dessicant absorbers and other solutions. Probably much less of a problem if run inside a laundry room or other location with air conditioning.

I live 50 miles north of downtown Houston. Pickup/delivery can be discussed.

Also have a few used 5-gallon ball lock kegs I will part with to help get someone started- these will be negotiated separately in terms of cost.

Asking $275 and willing to entertain offers. Happy to answer any questions and can have it running and cold for anyone who wants to take a look.

As it sits on the cart now, 48" tall, 50" wide, and 30.5" deep. If you don't keep it on the cart, remove 3" from the width and depth and a few inches (not sure exactly) from the height.
 
Sweetening the deal a bit more, I'll move on the price or include some kegs if that's what someone needs to get started. I have several used ball-locks that can be included. I just need to keep 1 for my Zymatic!
