Default Done with my new kegerator!

Here is my kegerator!
I just finished it last Sat. and all is well! I used a Ventmatic faucet with Shirron stainless steel shank. The regulator , tank and a D-coupler(not in use yet) is from Micro-Matic and so are all the hoses and the tap handle. Twin tap handles coming soon!

Here are a couple of pictures. Let me know what you think!








Thanks..............Dave

no, just a sticker I picked up from Bell's. Just so I know that I get my Corney back when I get it filled.

Clear out some of the beer (drink) and put some pint glasses in there. There's nothing like a nice cold pour into a nice frosty pint glass.

Looks real nice! I also saw some Hopslam and Third Coast up there from Bells. Are you from the Midwest? I am in South Bend, IN.

Did you buy the fridge or did you already have it? I currently have a small Danby that I am converting to a stout machine, but I am thinking about doing a fridge conversion to run all my non-stout stuff. Looking for a good low cost machine to start from.

NICE WORK...enjoy the brew!

I'm from Michigan! A little more than 2hrs. from Bell's and about the same from Founders.
I bought this fridge maybe a year ago with this in mind. I think I got it for $65.00

And psychodad,
I have brewed a couple of times, but I would like to get back into it soon. I think that would be great to have home brew on tap next to a Bell's or a Founders.

Thanks................Dave

Do you know what type of coupler system Bell's uses for their kegs... I'm from Grand Rapids and was practically raised on Bell's brew, mmm...

Oh and the reason I'm asking is because I'm just finishing up my own kegerator setup in my basement as well!

Impressive set up!!!!!!!!!!! It warms my alcohol soaked heart to see the different types of kegerators out there. true belief of a frosty pint in the luxury of your man cave using your brains(or livers) is the ultimate! By the way, why did you choose the ventmatic faucet? Also got a chuckle out of the lock on side of the unit.Damn beer gremlins anyway! Job well done sir. cya,brianatkcdraft
