Kegerator Set Up Guide Part 2 🍺🍺🍺

Welcome to part 2 of my 2 part series on setting up a kegerator.
These guides are designed to be generic and should be useful no matter which kegerator you are setting up be it manufactured purpose built or home built.

Thank you for the tower cooler hose step. I can't believe the instructions I got with my Mangrove Jack Kegerator neglected to mention this step. I'm no longer wasting beer with warm taps.

BIG HAIRY 💪 ALERT!! I really like the auto close springs. That is a massive tower!! Duo tight is the only way to go IMO. The ball lock cap on the rear is really nice! Cheers David!! 👍🍻

The very best kegerator set up guides I have seen. Thank for for everything you do David, it is pure gold.

[kenfowler]

Great tips David - which I had watched it years ago when I built my first Keizer! Cheers mate

Great video. Just bought this exact 3 outlet kegerator a few weeks ago and already installed new black nukataps. Great setup! Looks like i need to add springs and small handles soon.

Thanks David. Just set up my x series. Used the beer line lenght 4 mm as recomended by Kegland, ca 1.6 m. Foaming a lot. Hope it adjusts with some pourings.

Thanks for your information and effort 👍

That kegland multitool is niiice! Great vid!

Hi David, Have you seen the soon to be released 8 keg fridge from KL? No fonts or faucets but defs worth a look for a modular font set up. Keep up the great work

[denesszaraz]

Good video David, as usual. I have the exact same setup. How did you fit the manifold inside?

[paskrell]

Hello David, I know I had a lot of questions lately. Here my idea for a video as ROI :-)
A rookie guide to fermenting with temperature control. Comparing cost of a inkbird setup with second hand fridge and plastic bucket (incl how to use) vs steel bucket va fermenter with pump vs fermenter with glycol.
Also with aspects of brewing cost etc. what do you think?

[craigkautz]

Bought a komos used and it's identical to this thanks for the great videos!!
For the fan to tower hose I can not find a replacement one any idea where one could be found?

Hi David, I've finally taken the leap to kegs and preordered the series X in the UK 😁 Now deciding my regulator setup. I see you've gone for a 5-way manifold. If I went with 4 or 5 inline regulators would I need a manifold as well? I'm guessing you have both to control the right carb level for each keg. Thanks a mill.

Hi Dave. Great video! I like the idea of pumping cool air into the tap stand, I'll add that to my converted freezer. I noticed that your beer lines are very short, how do you adjust the flow to prevent foaming?

[amadest]

Should be equipped also with secondary regulators. Every beer has different serving pressure. Sometimes quite different.

[edgar.valdez]

Great video as usual David!! I’m about to start kegging and considering a Kegerator as well, I’ve got (a newbie) question:

With the manifold, how do you know which pressure each valve has? Or you need to use the inline regulator and you just didn’t show it in the video? I’m asking for the scenarios where you want to carb & serving beer at the same time

Thanks in advance!

I was thinking of adding in line regulators for each keg, but unsure if I should mount them inside or outside. Any thoughts?

[zzing]

Have you run into any issues with starsan and duotight? It seems to have some reported issues. Compatibility between acetal and phosphoric acid (starsan) and iodine (iostar) seems to be an issue.

[paulnicholasadams]

Did you get a foam insert with your tower? I got one but maybe it was just for packaging

[arberpacarada]

Hi David. I have the same kegerator and I just setup it up with one tap because I am using commercial kegs/beer. I am having big problems with foam. So I have 4mm tube 3 meters long. Is this too long? What is the correct/recommended pressure (PSI)? Is there a different set up for commercial kegs or same as corny keg? Help please.
