So I recently like many of you, converted my kegerator into a "Keezer". I installed a collar between the freezer and lid, then mounted my taps into the collar. Standard Keezer build. Now though with the collar, its very difficult to get 15 gal sake kegs or my 15 gallon fermenter with 10 gallons of beer into the keezer. I was able to man handle the fermenter yesterday so I could cold crash but Im pretty sure a full 15 gallon keg would be pretty impossible for me to do alone.
I was thinking about something like a winch system over the keezer. Where it is located I could hide the winch (or whatever), above the drop ceiling and mount it to the floor joists above that. I was looking at a cheap ATV winch at Harbor Freight for 70 bucks but whatever I get needs to have a slow lift and slow release and I wasn't sure if it would work.
Have any of you done something like this before and if so how did you do it?
Thanks,
David
