Time to add another Keezer build to the mix.
I started by reading countless keezer builds here on HBT, and after making a part list, checking it countless times, abandoning and restarting shopping carts, changing things more times than I would like to count, I finally ordered the parts and started the build.
I wanted it to be big enough to hold 6 kegs without using the hump, 4 will be tapped, and 2 ageing, just waiting in the wings.
Parts for Keezer:
Started with a 4th of July sale at BeverageFactory
Primary Double Gauge CO2 Gas Beer Regulator with Polyethylene Knob
Four Product Secondary Co2 Regulator with Check Valves
Found this freezer during a Presidents Sale at Best Buy for $199.99
Insignia 10.2 Cu Ft Chest Freezer White
Model: NS-CZ10WH6
SKU: 8389389
Found some Perlick 425 taps here in the "For Sale" section. Great thing was there were local so I could pick them up.
I also found someone selling some ball lock kegs just around the block from me and picked them up.
Used parts can be "iffy" at best, but the taps and kegs were all first class, well taken care of parts.
Last but not least, all the shanks, tubing, connectors, etc. I found at RiteBrew. I went with all swivel nuts for everything so it would be easier to change things out if needed without busting an Oetiker clamp, or trying to tighten a typical hose clamp.
Lowes was next on the list for a couple of 2 x 6's (inside of collar), and a couple of 1 x 6 PVC boards (outside collar).
