So after moving out of my buddy's house almost two years ago I lost access to his keezer which left me (gasp) bottling beers again. At first it was fun and the wife thought it was something cool to do together. That sentiment died quickly after bottling three batches in one day when she declared that it was time to get a keezer. Being limited on money we went the used craigslist route and this behemoth was available and cheap.
here she is, in all her grotesque beauty
And the coffin, problems outlined below
It was a monstrosity that leaked cold air everywhere, weighed a billion pounds thanks to the thick tiled top (which I thought would break off and kill me ever time I opened it) and just generally looked too rustic (read poorly put together) for my taste. So yesterday I made a plan, gutted it and went to Home Depot. I guess I just wanted to document this build here for my own use or inevitably for the help I'm going to need.
After gutting it I had to scrap of the remnants of the adhesive to get a usable surface
And the frame
