I'm planning on converting this 300l freezer i have to a kegerator instead of running my keg fridge and bar fridge. I already have a mashmaster controller left over from a ferment room i don't use.
I've read a stack of threads on building the collar and reckon i can get a handle on that, but it's the fitout that i don't know enough about.
I do know i'm not interested in having taps just sticking out the side of the collar and need some kind of font to raise the height to a comfortable level away from the hands of toddlers.
So i'm thinkiing of getting a font welded up to come out the side of the collar, turn 90 degrees and rise to a crosspipe with threads for 4 taps facing away from the freezer. I figure on hanging a drip tray off the collar too.
I just don't know how to search for threads with such common terms as font and tap and was hoping for some advice as to where longer standing members have seen some gooduns.
I need to know how to design the font, and which taps and where to get em.
The other thing i'll need to fit is the gas hardware. i'm tossing up (as i know **** all about) the pros and cons of using the splitters from keg king or making some kind of manifold.
I have one bottle that i'm fitting with dual regs, so i can force carbonate and serve at the same time. So i'm thinking i should be able to get up to six kegs in this freezer, so have a 4 way manifold for serving pressure and a two way one for carbing?
All advice appreciatted. B)
