The New Kegerator

Sun Feb 15, 2009 12:04 pm

I had a great 6 tap kegerator with a modified freezer, but I snagged a commercial kegerator on craigslist for 100 bucks!! With some new parts and a few tap handles along with many hours later, shes pouring homebrew. Still have some cleaning to do on her, but Im holding off until I have the entire basement done. I am going to eventually add another tap for commercial beer as it came with some commercial sankey couplers. Dont mind the Busch 12 pack. Sometimes me and the old man have to head for the mountains. :lol:

When I first got it

This model has built in drainage but since I have no drain underneath the unit I routed some new tubing into a 3 Liter soda bottle with some sanitizer in it. No problems yet and as long as I dont forget to drain it (well see how that works out :oops: ) it should be great.

This is the best worst tap tower ever, great functioning and totally 80's. I thought about getting rid of it, but nah, its so fugly its awesome

100 bucks?

You're a jerk. :twisted:

I've poured over 200 into my shitty upright freezer... and that was only enough to get one tap in it so far. :(

Nice steal... if its gone in the morning, don't check my basement.
