Hello
I am brand new to this site and was hoping I could get a few pointers for a wet bar I am building in my basement. I am planning on building it around 60 inches wide and 18 inches deep and Im really set on installing a draft tap.
My living room space is limited so I am hoping that one of these two options would work.
1. Put a full kegerator kit underneath the counter top. Obviously this seems like the easier way to do it but I am having a hard time finding one that is only 18 inches deep. If I do this I would like it to be flush with my cabinets. Does anyone know of any kegerators are that this skinny that would fit 1/4 to 1/2 barrel? I could probably put my cabinets out to 20 inches but that would be the max.
2. Place kegerator in my utility room and snake lines through the walls to a tap. Has anyone done this? I still have the framing open right now so it would be a good time to do this. I would actually think this would be cheaper because then i could just use a cheap fridge. What type of plumbing lines would I use? Could I just use a normal fridge and drill a hole in it for the beer line? What other equipment would I need?
I am brand new to this so any ideas are welcome. Also - Let me know if I am posting on the wrong site/forum.
Thanks!
