May I introduce, the Keg Fridge 9000 (Stealth Model)

#1 Post by cyburai » Sun Mar 26, 2006 4:02 pm

I finally had some time to finish up the keg fridge in anticipation of this summer.

Let me show you around the place:

First of all, the whole fridge is painted in black chalkboard paint. I didn't write on it yet, since it's still curing. But think of the possibilities!!

The front, with 3 taps:

The freezer, with many chilled glasses for family, friends, and guests:

And the fridge, with 2 carboys of Drunky McStout chilling away to get ready for kegging.

Total time, about 8 hours. Including the painting.

Expenses:
Fridge: Free (thanks to mom, and her new fridge)
Paint: around $20
Tap equipment: around $130
Regulator: $20

Took some time, but it's going to be worth it!!

Drip Tray

Sean --

Where did you get that drip tray, and what did you pay for it (if you don't mind me askin)?

That's exactly the size I want for mine...

It is actually 2 small trays mounted side by side. They are available at most online stores.

Sorry, I guess I didn't have my contacts in. :)

I'm still curious where you came by yours, if you'd recommend them, etc.
