Dear Mike Godwin,
Thanks a lot for your answer!
Basically, my questions are more towards marketing area. I am trying to estimate the market potential for kegerators and pre-mixes (I guess, post-mixes are for soda, pre-mixes (ready-to-drink) are for beer, but can be used for soda as well). In Russia or Ukraine bars and restaurants use pre-mixes. I was told that in the USA, Canada, Mexico, China kegerators are more common then pre-mixes. Generally I would divide beer refrigeration equipment into three types - walk-ins with Air Cooled or Gylcol Cooled system, Direct Draw self-contained kegerators, and pre-mixes. With this breakdown there should be reasons for choice among different types of equipment. My understanding is that in the US walk-ins and self-contained kegerators are mostly used. I am trying to figure out where to draw the line between them by identifying the breakdown basis.
Thanks a lot again,
Dmitry
