Poll - How many kegs do you have?

[GRHunter]

Right now I have 7 cornie's and will be picking up 3 more later this morning. I currently have 3 in my keezer, 3 waiting to go in the keezer, and 1 dirty cornie that needs to be cleaned prior to kegging a blonde ale next week. So after that I will have nothing to keg to, hence the 3 additional cornies being purchased later this morning. 10 cornies seems like a lot and it got me wondering how many everyone else had. So, what is the cornie inventory for the rest of you?

 

[david_42]

Way more than I need since Guzzyboy died, but I haven't bothered selling any. Four on tap, 2-3 conditioning and a similar number for wine and long-term aging. That leaves 4-6 empties.

 

[Edcculus]

I live in a small apartment, and only have space for a chest freezer that fits 2 kegs, hence only having 3 kegs.

 

[jimba009]

16 here, although only 8 are in rotation...

 

[DrinksWellWithOthers]

I have four but I'm going to start getting rid of bottles to make room for more kegs.

 

[Manfish]

I currently have 9. 3 in the kegerator, 6 empty... but they will be full by the middle of next month

 

[FromZwolle]

just the two. but, that's all that will fit in my fridge. i'd love a couple more to naturally carb in, but the budget, as always.

 

[mrk305]

Three here. Two on tap & one force carbed.

 

[homebrewer_99]

Let's see...

2 on tap (kegerator)
6 in the keezer (which holds 8)
3 full and aging (some to transfer to keezer)
13 empties (with 6 brews in primaries or cornies)
24 total...

I also have 4 - 5lb CO2 canisters with splitters, one has a 4-plex manifold.

 

[HBHoss]

I have 14 in use and 5 empty Corney kegs.

Wow. I think some of you could use one of these http://www.chicompany.net/index.php...id=431&zenid=9740c305a60e942f1361ac7299112c4c

I have 2 in a fridge and 3 needing cleaning after purchase = 5, and I'd like more. A few months ago I only had 1. Freeing up a full size fridge that could hold 6 (or 5+co2) was certainly an encouragement, but more recently I've been making more product and spending a lot in other equipment too so I convinced myself the cornie acquisitions were only a small part of the big picture. Very helpful for a multitude of reasons (serving, aging, where-the-f am I going to put this liquid if I don't want to bottle and don't want it in my carboy, etc).

 

[fatherbigfoot]

Going to bye my first one soon if I ever get some time off work

 

[erkwist]

I have one, in the mail on its way to my house...
there will be more

 

[shelly_belly]

I just picked up 4 more so now I have 14. I can't wait until they are all filled!

 

[Malticulous]

Four, and I still bottle more than half of what I brew.

 

[Brad]

3.5, 3 five gallon ball locks, and one 2.5 gallon ball lock one for soda, two for beer one for on the run.

 

[bucfanmike]

6 here. 2 right now on tap, keezer will hold 3 but i dont have the third tap yet. Brewing 2 more batches this weekend, that will leave me with 2 empties. I want to do some winter ales in them and age them for awhile.

 

[ksbrain]

I have eight. Four are on tap. Three are full and carbonating. One is empty. I need to get four more as I prepare for a massive Oktoberfest party which will require six kegs. And I thought eight would be enough...

 

[uwjester]

I've got 17. I make 10 gallon batches with a friend though, so I guess it is more like 8 each even though they are technically mine. About 10 of the 17 are empty at the moment, but I'm hoping to change that. Also, I use the kegs to dry hop and lager, so there are usually more full than the 4 taps in my kegerator can speak for.

 

[Photomask]

3 1/4 barrel Sankes
14 5 gal cornies.
10 2-1/2 gal cornies.
3 1-1/4 gal cornies.

Is there such a thing as enough?

 

[demonrichie]

0 as i do not have the means to get any and i want to keg soooooooooooo bad

 

[caphector]

I've got two right now, but I'm planning on getting 2-3 more next weekend (roadtrip to MoreBeer in Concord, then on to Russian River and maybe one of the other micros up there!)

 

[SweetSounds]

(12) 5 Gallon Ball locks
(6) 5 Gallon pin-locks (For Sale)
(7) 1/2 bbl Sankes (For Sale)

Sorry for the shameless plugs
And no - There's no such thing as too many

 

[winstonofbeer]

Just have 7 5gal cornys

4 in kegerator, 3 in reserve that are full waiting to be used.
Need to get more....when all 7 cornys are full and 4 carboys are full..... Its like grrrrr!!! I need to invite some friends over or really start drinking more than a glass at night.

But i guess on the bright side, The longer they sit the more aging they get.

 

[steinsato]

I have 6 that work and 1 that doesn't. I have a 2 tap kegerator with space for one more beer to either lager or cool down prior to tapping. I usually have one empty waiting to be filled and 2 more that are full and naturally carbonating. I think 6-7 is all I will ever need seems to fit my rotation pretty well.

 

[Brewing Clamper]

5 pin-locks for me. Though I'm always trying to fill them all to "justify" to my CFO that I need more, I seem to always be behind. I guess I have to try harder.

 

[camiller]

I started with 10 that I bought when I first got into kegging. Then a buddy of mine found a restaurant that had switched over from cornies to BIB about a year ago and Pepsi would never pick up the empties so... my buddy got me 9 for free giving me 19 total.

 

[Zen_Brew]

12 total.
(9) 5 gallon ball locks
(3) 3 gallon ball locks

I'd like to get another 1 or 2 3 gallon kegs as they work nice for making a beer I'd like to have occaisionally, but wouldn't drink very often, or to make quick small batches just for competition. They also work great for splitting a bigger batch if I want to add oak or fruit or whatever to half the batch.

 

[Otto_on_the_island]

Ive got about 22 I think. I started with half a dozen, tried to order more and couldn't find any for the life of me, so I ordered a skid of 25. Ive sold off a few, but I think Ive got about 22 or so left.
