My kegging gear is arriving today, and I have 3 batches in fermenters ready to be kegged!
I can already see the kegging system being a slippery slope. Already looking at using up to 4 taps

Ohhh can I get some details? I think I'm going this route, and soon. Where did you get your gear, what did you get, and what was the cost?elproducto wrote:Finally, no more bottling!

Fridge: Lots of sources
Keg Conversion Kit: http://www.kegconnection.com
Whatever you figure to be the maximum number of kegs/gas cylinder your fridge can fit, buy a conversion kit accordingly. It's cheaper and less hassle than trying to cobble together all the parts to expand later.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

I went with a chest freezer and made no conversions aside from adding a temp controller. So yeah, I have to open the lid to pour beer from picnic taps. I ain't into hardware/gear.
But yeah, kegconnection is good for kegging parts, so is morebeer. don't forget to check out www.homebrew-supplies.ca too.

Actually a buddy of mine sold me his brand new kit from SIMGO that he didn't ever end up using. He also was able to get me a 10lb tank from Coke for super cheap, and the fillups are only $30 (he works in the restaurant business).
Otherwise, I was ready to buy everything from either www.simgo.com. Check out Spencer at www.homebrewgearcanada.com, and Chris at www.hopdawgs.ca. Keep it local!!!
Currently I'm using an old fridge, but it's a side by side, and I only have room for the CO2 and 1 corny at present. This weekend, planning to move the CO2 outside, so I can fit 2, possibly 3 cornys in the fridge.
My long term plan is to build a Keezer.
I'm going to use all Perlick faucets eventually. The kit I got, just had a generic faucet, but I've heard they have a lot of problems with sticking.
