Hi guys
So I've been trawling the threads here looking for info to get me started, and now I'm starting to order stuff, I want to make sure I've got it all taken care of!
So I ordered a KegMate style Dual font Kegerator which should be here in a few days (I'm in WA).
On the weekend I'm planning on picking up a couple of refurbished 19L kegs, and then off to my local home brew place to make some beer there
Then while that's doing its thing, I'm going to decide whether or not to splash out for my own 2.4kg CO2 canister, or go down the Soda Stream route for now.
As far as I can tell, that's it? Unless the Kegmate doesn't come with disconnects for 19L kegs, but that's no big deal.
Will the CO2 regulator that comes with the Kegmate be able work 2 kegs? I kind of assumed so given that it comes as a 2 tap setup, but you never know!
Any other hints/tricks for a newbie, please lay them on me
Oh yeah. With carbonated kegs. What's the shelf life for the beer, and does it need to be kept cold? I'm asking because the Kegmate can hold 3 kegs, but in a perfect world, I'd like to have 4 in rotation (2 of different beers).
Thanks
