Kneebones coffin keezer build

[Kneebone]

I think its about time i posted an update! I've been a bit distracted by a functional keezer and have neglected this build thread
Se next up was grouting.
This was my least favourite part of the project... I made it hard for myself and didnt scrub the tiles fast enough which left me scrubbing the tiles with very fine steel wool.
I ended up getting it quite neat after all.


I installed the push button switch for my LED lights next to the STC

I was ready to plumb it all up by now so i got all the lines and co2 gear


(Sorry about the rotated pic, updating on a ph is dodgy)
So i got a converted extinguisher and a keg king reg. this fits perfectly on the hump.

I started plumbing it all up.

I sorted out the 12v electrical going to the led and fan by using a 4 pin plug, so i could disconnect it from the lid when i want to disassemble it for moving.

Next up was finishing the top, i needed to caulk the edges of the tiling



I used painters tape to tape up a neat line and it endud up coming out great! I used a grey caulk to match the grout.
At this point i was ready to load the keezer up with kegs.


It fits x2 19l cornies, a 11l cornie and the co2 bottle perfectly!

And here is my first pour!

I still need to stain the other 2 tap handles and varnish them all.



I've poured at least 120l of beer since i finished the build... Its a bit alarming how quickly one can finish a 19l keg

There are a few small things left to do, i need to sort out a dehumidifier, finish the handles and finish the coffin insulation.
The unit runs absolutely amazing! It impresses everyone who comes over and pours perfect pints all night.
