This is directed at all of you folks with regular full size fridges or upright freezers for kegerators.
I am planning my kegerator. I have a full size fridge in the basement and I store my brew in there. I know most folks put the handles on the front door. I have some good shelves for storing bottles and other stuff on the door and I do not really want to get rid of them. They do not prevent me from storing the kegs either. I could easily fit 5 and the CO2. Right now I have 4 and a carboy and the CO2. They would be in the way of evenly spacing faucets though. Also, I have some cool long tap handles so they would have to be low so I the freezer can still open. SWMBO doesn't like that idea as she is afraid the little one will be able to reach (even though he is not really supposed to go in the basement.)
Anyway, the side seems like a good idea. I suppose it doesn't "look as cool" or something. Also, I am not sure if there is any problems associated with this. So, what do you folks think. What should I consider?
It will be a while before I have the faucets. For now I am just stoked to have kegs at all and I don't mind opening and pouring from the cobra taps! :rockin:
In fact I may be drinking a bit more than necessary just cause it's so cool!
