I wouldn't call it a ***** - but it definitely takes a little thought. You may have to pull a keg out to get to another one and so forth. If you're thinking 6 shanks then I think that may cause a problem. If you want to run 6 out the front then I'd be running dual faucet shanks. Otherwise, I'd consider going through the top instead. Like I mentioned in a previous post, in hindsight that is probably the only thing I'd re-evaluate about the build. One thing you don't see in the pictures is I have 4 flare bulkhead now that I bring 4 different secondary regulator into so I can run different pressure inside. That was worth the effort. I keep the regulator external to keep the clutter out.
HTH.
Great Build! I am about to begin my conversion. Would this issue be solved if you'd have hinged the the collar and connected the lid permanently to the top of the collar (so the taps and hoses/regulators lift with the collar for accessing the keg space)? Is that what folks refer to as a "coffin build"?
Definitely subscribed!
I have been looking at the Danby 8.7 and love the way your Danby build turned out. Maybe the wife won't mind looking at it if it turns out like this one. I have a few questions if you don't mind.
I was thinking of doing 5 taps. Do you think mounting them offset in the collar so they are over the hump area would help with the internal organization?
How often do you need to recharge the eva dry?
Where did you get that awesome name plate that covers the old handle holes?
Thanks again for the awesome inspiration!
I was thinking of mounting the taps justified to one side in the face of the collar as opposed to centered like yours.
Good idea to have two Eva dry for swapping out.
Never used that program before. Is it a freebie online? Sure, send the file along anyways, I always love a head start.
