Hello everyone,
Im Bruce I have been a lurker here for something like 9 years. I don't post much because I do not brew, But I find it really interesting. I want to convert a refrigerator to hold a keg and dispense the beer with CO2. I know many of you do this. If anyone has any suggestions about the best way to do this or where to get good deals on the hardware I would like to hear from you.
Thanks
Bruce |

One of the things that you could do is build out a small refrigerator with a tower on top. The Sanyo 49xx series was a common unit for this. This Link will take you to my example of one. Also, This Link will take you to a build article on the Northern Brewers Forum.
If you are interested in this setup, you can still ger a Sanyo 4912 at FRYS.com for a reasonable price. I understand that their shipping charge is also very reasonable.
Hope this helps.. |

Thanks Paul,
I already have the refrigerator, I guess Im just looking for suggestions from others who have done this, such as who has good prices for the parts I will need, anything I need to be aware of when selecting components.

Bruce , I bought alot of my stuff from www.ebrew.com I was happy with the service and pricing , but that was probably 4 years ago. Still might be worth a look for you. |

For what it's worth (living near Charlotte), my LHBS is the place that has the ebrew site. Jess is a great guy (and, brewer)....never been disappointed. NAYYY
I am sure they will do right. |
