Oops.
 
Okay, I misread that, thought you meant storing the taps on the door of the fridge. That might work. Will want to see if there is a way to prevent the taps from compressing in the first place.

There will not be any gas attached to the kegs while not in use (storing the CO/2 outside the fridge), so there is a limit to the amount of potential loss.

More water.

Now if only someone with plastic forming skills could invent a cap that could slip over your standard cobra/party style tap that would cover the spout and tab to prevent accidental spillage. They would make hundreds of dollars. Maybe even thousands.
Wait, that is a great idea. Someone start marketing this product. Now! Maybe I need to get a 3d printer or something and see what I can design.
 
You know commercial brewers have got to lurk around on this site, I wonder what goes through there minds when they see videos like that. I bet they want to reach in the screen and rip their beer out of there hands and say no! You can not have my beer anymore!
 
Wondering if I should ignore the next bottle of beer that opens my fridge, walks over to me, opens itself and pours itself into a cup. Or fire-up the Farm Boss and chunk up some logs.
 
So happy ballast point as finally made it to Texas. I buy that S*** by the case every time is see it's in stock

Think the first time I had anything Ballast Point was 4-5 years ago. Bombers of Big Eye while fishing with my buddy on the boat. All we drank were Big Eye and Lagunitas. I like Big Eye as much as I like Sculpin. Big Eye is quite easy to find here but Sculpin, on the other hand, is not. Can't go wrong with a sixxer of Big Eye for $12. Most places charge $14-15. (Un)Luckily, I work near a gigantic liquor/beer warehouse.

You know the phrase "beer me" wasn't invented by accident. Heavy machinery wasn't intended to be used empty handed
 
I'm in Fort Worth and I've been drinking ballast point for a year or more it seems

True but for what ever reason big eye and sculpin only seem to make occasional showings here in H-town. There is always a ballast point on the shelf but never the same thing twice in a row, or at least at the stores near me.

You know - there are local Maker spaces in our area. I have access to 3d design software too!
 
That's funny here the only thing I really see is big eye and sculpin, no complaint though I love em both

I've seen sculpin and big eye everywhere up here near me. I do not buy them that often. I'm not spending $15 on a six pack of IPA.
 
I love listening to Big L with a sick buzz. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ysTK4Zq7VY[/ame]

I love listening to NaS after coming home from the gym and having a pour of my DIPA off the kegerator as my post workout "shake".

I wouldn't either, the Kroger over here must not know any better. $9 for a sixer of big eye. $8 for bomber of sculpin. Had tongue buckler about a month ago, thought it was great as well
 
Return of the Boom Bap witbier

Alcohol doesn't bother me.

Do it! I was thinking of something along the lines of the caps that go over toothbrushes to protect the bristles, but to clip on more from the side. Should be a pretty simple thing to mock up if you can get the dimensions right.

To stay on topic, I'm drinking a HB Cream Ale (still all I have on tap) to relax after work and keep my nerves calm before tonight's date. Its a sessionable 3.7% so no worries of showing up hammered as long as I stick to one.
 
Had my local brewery try my Brett saison. Of course I drank some, too. :D
