I have been researching and getting ready to get my first batch going. I have been working a lot, but I'm finally off. I have been collecting equipment and setting up my keezer. I had a vision of what keezer I wanted to build when I saw it on one of the forums, and a couple of days later, I found one on Craigslist that was exactly what I wanted. I picked it up the same day, and I just got around to cleaning and sanitizing it. I removed EVERYTHING, I took apart all lines, faucets, drip tray, and cleaned inside the keezer with Clorox, and sprayed it all out with the water hose (drained via drain hole) So the specs are a Kenmore 12 cu. ft. Chest Feezer, stained wooden collar, 4 Perlick 525SS fauctets, 5# CO2 setup with three gauges, Johnson Controls Temp Controller, and Stainless Drip Tray. I was pleasantly surprised to see exactly how much was gonna fit in here. The compressor shelf holds two carboys perfectly in case I want to lager in it. It will hold six cornys, with CO2 tank inside, or maybe two 1/6 barrel Sanke's and 3 or 4 cornys. I am actually on the way to get two Sankes now. One Fireman's #4 and One St. Arnold's Root Beer for the family. I need this so when I make my first Homebrew batch this weekend, I'll, at least, have something to drink, sans, Homebrewer Style (at least it is a craft beer out of the Keezer) Here are some pics of my setup, and a couple of shots of my brewing equipment and where I am gonna brew. Comments are welcomed.
