I current have a Black Frigidaire Chest Freezer 7.2 cu that was converted to a Kegerator several years ago. However, I have had a couple of changes that I am thinking about doing to the freezer. Below is a picture of the Kegerator. It is nothing fancy.
I am going to add a wood collar made out of Oak wood that I have access to. These are 3/4 thick and 7 3/8 wide.
With the collar, I can hold 4 kegs in there (hopefully five) but I will have to keep the CO2 tank on the outside. I'm planning on drilling in one side of the collar and seal the cracks with spay foam insulation.
The current setup is a pain when I have to open the top. Not only do I have to side it out, every time somebody closes the lid beer always comes out of the nozzle. I'm am planning on adding solid bar on top of the freezer that incorporates into a neighboring workbench to the right.
What is the best way to keep the kegerator insulated where the tubes exit the lid? I currently just have it rigged up with spay foam insulation. The problem is that I am not able to remove the tubing for maintenance. I would like to find a solution that will allow me to exit out collar. Something like a shank that connects tubing at both ends? Anybody have any ideas?
