Hi all.
I'm throwing together a two tap kegerator out of an old 420l all fridge (no freezer). I've worked out I can fit 2-6 kegs in it, depending on what fermenter is crash cooling in there at that time.
As I was reading about needing to keep beer lines and taps cool, has anyone tried attaching heatsinks to the long shaft behind the tap inside the fridge?
I'm thinking of getting a 450mm long piece of 3mm x 40mm flat aluminium to give the taps something solid to attach to behind them, then attaching something similar to this..

Would there be any advantage to putting a couple of heatsinks onto the flat alloy bar to try to cool the taps outside the fridge, or is it unnecessary?
Cheers.
