New Babies

[OldBugman]

Well I just brought home my two new babies.

Two cut down 18L kegs which are now 15.5L in size.

Bring my tally to 4x19L, 2x15.5L, 2x12L

Will chuck a photo up later.

Can i ask a dumb question bugman??

Why would you want to cut them down??

[OldBugman]

Cos my chest freezer is only a 113L.

I can fit one 19 or 18 and then a smaller 12L on the step.

Now I have the 4 19s running the rotation on the lower section and the 15s and 12s doing the job of the stepped area.

[lethaldog]

Ahh ok well well done then, sounds like you have a more efficient system running than i do

[OldBugman]

Well The plan was to turn the 12L kegs into he party kegs, but now I'm going to get some 8L vessels so I can make a 20L batch and keg 12 and 8 from it. and save the 15s for big beers.

Sounds like an awesome plan to me buggy, i only have 4 kegs that are all 18 L so i am a little limited, but it works for me, it just means i have to bottle a few from each brew as well

Buggy you blow me away.

You said you are a fridgy. WTGR I would have thought you could knock up a custom box, gas up the bits and have any shape brew fridge you cared for.

Cheers, Geoff.

I live in bondi. So my beer taps are in my lounge room(sunroom off lounge room to be exact).

If I lived down the coast in the outback like you I'd have a whole cool room.


Actually recently been looking at buying a place with enough space for me to set up a mini cool room. Got all the bits sitting at work besides the paneling
