Instead of setting up multiple fridges/freezers to chill kegs and fermenters, I thought why not have a single glycol chiller, and use that to chill everything?
Each "module" (conical fermenter, kegerator, etc) would have it's own cooling loop with a pump that would be switched on or off when required. The conical is already set up for glycol cooling, but I'm not sure how to do the cooling of my 4 x 1/6bbl slim kegs. I imagine I would build an insulated cabinet and run cooling lines through it, maybe using a fan for better heat transfer.
Has anyone built a kegerator using glycol for the cooling like this? Looking for ideas...
