Is there one already made? I looked through several other information threads so far and got a lot of great info on how to set up, balance, etc but nothing on what you actually have to buy to build a keezer?
I'd love some help on figuring out what exactly I need to be purchasing; so far I've gotten most of the basics down. I really love to plan things out before jumping into them so I am trying to get a feel for what exactly I'll need before I start buying. I plan on doing a ~7 Cu Ft freezer (have a used GE one for $125 I'll be buying before the weekend) and want to run 3-4 kegs on it:
Ball Lock Kegs (probably ~6)
Perlick Faucets (3 regular/1 Stout)
CO2 tank (5 Gal) how fast do these run out on a 3 or 4 keg setup?
Nitrous as I plan to run 1 stout tap (5 gallon tank?)
Gas lines and liquid lines (are the different or does it matter?)
Regulator/Distributor:
Here is one of my big questions: Should I use a single or double regulator; or should I go with a 4 way distributor? What are the +/- of the setups? Is it better to be able to control multiple CO2 paths? Or simply have one level and 4 shutoffs with a distributor?
I'm sure there are valves, connectors, etc that I am missing but that's where I am hoping to get some help with?
Any advice would also be greatly appreciated; I want to do this 1 time so "right" the first time is important to me
