Fancy or unfancy beer storage devices

[TkrPerformance]

Fiq. It would be better to just start this instead of filling up the fancy beer with the fridge build.

So post your fancy or unfancy beer storage device.

The new kegarator. Turing my 50's fridge in to a 3 keg (5.5 gal) kegarator. I got some parts off craigs list for dirt cheap and the rest from mike for some beer.

All the parts I got off Craig's list also got a 5lb co2 tank for 80.00
After I rebuilt them all

Going to have them out the door. Got the 7/8 shank holes drilled. Found out that the shanks I had where going to be to short to go all the way through. Would have needed to get 3 6" long shanks at 30.00 each.

So I ended up taking out the egg shelf and butter storage. They will go back in. I cut the back of the fridge door out so I could use the shanks I had.

Made a filler panel for the hole and so I can get the jam nuts tight on the shanks

Just need to get some white duck tape to Finnish it off and put the shelf and butter holder back in.

Good idea Mark.

Here is what I have....

Found this on craigslist this summer for a killer deal.
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-GfSGwu7daHc/T_n11YtjKTI/AAAAAAAACfM/2aMedvwUmDw/s509/2012-07-08_15-57-16_278.jpg

Then did some upgrading to it. Added a second tap, a C02 manifold, and some lines to run use homebrew kegs. I also added a couple homemade tap handles. One of them is a cam from Scheides old Evo 8. The other is a twins logo CNC'd into plastic as a test for the same thing in a baseball bat handle. I have a few other ideas in the works.

Also added a $25 fish tank temp controller. Wired it into an outlet to control the fridge temp.

Recently added a third C02 line so I can run one Sanke keg and 2 home brew kegs. I have another tap but haven't had a chance or need to put it on yet.

My not so fancy beer storage is in an extra cabnet in the basement. It houses my homebrew currently. 2-1 gallons of a burbon barrel cherry stout and 3 gallons of bourbon barrel ale in there currently. Should be ready in August at the earliest.

Moved everything around today. Put the fridge out at the bar. Moved the bar and put the pop machine on the other side.

Nothing fancy for me, just a kitchen fridge and Beertender!

I really like my beertender. Have not used it since x-mas. Think I should sell it now that I have the 3 taps in the fridge
