Somebody call Coastal Living and put me on the cover

Finally got through most of my keezer build this last weekend. I decided to put the tower over some storage on the end of the sears 8.8 cubic ft, that way the lid is accessible.

Finally got the internals installed. I wanted a dual regulator external tank. One regulator is set at 12 psi (10 ft beer lines) and feeds the four kegs being served. The other regulator is set to 30 psi for force carbonation and then will adjust to 12 psi for storage. I added a 3 ft extension to the regulator so I could move the CO2 tank in and out without having to deal with the awkward double gauge that would have made it top heavy. Working great so far.

Don't forget to check fittings before installation for leaks. My only leak was the connector between the two regulators. Only took a little disassembly and new plumbers tape and I was back in action.

I still need to figure out insulation in tower. I'm getting a fair amount of condensation- bought an evadry, but this is more like towels and buckets type of condensation in bottom of freezer. Always a work in progress. Next on to fermentation chambers...

I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions. There's always improvements to be done.

$250 for Sears Freezer (new)
$150 for Lumber and stainless screws
$500 for Regulator, Faucets, temp control and beer line parts
Kegs I already owned. Bout $900. Two weekends. Not bad.
