Pic Request, Tower tap Adapter

[MrMikeWhite]

Hey fellow brewers.

I was scowering the internet to see about adding 2 more towers to my kegetator, one for stouts and one for root beer, and i noticed they have these adapters

I was wondering if anyone has one of these mounted above a 2 tap tower, so 4 taps on one tower.

If so i would love to see how you did it, i would assume stagger the taps so the top ones dont drip on the lower ones.

Thanks brewers

Bump!

I made a box for the top of my tower instead of using one of these adapters. A buddy of mine had an adapter like the one in your picture but it was 3 taps total. One on top and two below. They were just crammed too close together for my liking.

Here's mine.

I used these shanks http://www.kegworks.com/nipple-shan...!32550418561&gclid=CM-wxtP927oCFYdFMgodMFQAEw

do you have a build thread of your box? thats bad ass!

 

[jmichaeldesign]

No build thread. It really is just a box nothing fancy. I build furniture full time so little projects like this are no big deal. I'd be happy to take more pics if you'd like.

If you really want I'd be happy to build you one for a reasonable price.

ooh now looking at it, its a wood box. so i would assume silicone the inside seams and stuff it with insulation?

I never thought of using wood, could pick up some birds eye maple.....

It's just assembled with wood glue. The front and back aren't glued. But they do have a lip cut around all four sides to help it seal a bit better.

I didn't insulate it and haven't had any issues with foamy pours. I'm sure the wood provides as much insulation as the thin foam that's in the tower.

It's an old commercial kegerator and does have a fan that blows cool air into the tower.
