DAS KEGERATOR!

Sun Dec 30, 2007 5:20 pm

So yeah I finally got my kegerator knocked out the day before xmas eve. I just barely squeezed two corny kegs in there.

I went with brass faucets because they were cheaper than stainless steel but I think they look quite snazzy bouncing off the shiny blackness of the fridge.

I had to massacre the hell out of the inside of the door to get it to fit everything in there. I had plastic dust flying all over the kitchen.

Two cornies and a couple of packs of dry yeast for emergencies.

Topped it all off with the most important: The sticker!

Got my porter and brown ale on tap...both AG!

That's a great little fridge, but your right the sticker really makes it! Where the hell did you get that?

Rhino -

Is that a GE or a Danby? If it is a Danby, you can order a new "door insert" that is flat. I did that with an old fridge. I bought a Danby at Home Depot - when there wasn't a kegerator version. Within a month they had the kegerator version. I just called them up and order the parts needed to switch mine.

Not that I don't admire your ghetto tactics... but the insert makes it look professional - and gives you the clearance you need.

Just my $.02 on the door. I bought a piece of shower board and cut it to fit the insert on the door. Used it as a template like in Doc's keggerator project. I left plenty of room and no one knows that it didn't come that way. Plus that stuff is a great dry erase board for noting keg contents and dates of transfer.

But, great job, looks like you have a slamming keg fridge there.

MyloFiore: It's a GE so I don't know if they have the inserts.

Thanks for the door tips...but as I'll have it shut 99% of the time I wasn't too worried about what the inside looked like...and was too impatient to wait for more parts....ehhe. It does the job!
