Hi all,
Well if you stuck all through my waffle in the Regulator thread, at the end of it, I thought boot time I done a new thread and mske my ferm fringe in to a kegorator. Once I get up to the editing studio (my pc knackered for a few weeks) onto wor lasses craptop.
and fire pics to help see what I’m waffling on.
giz me a few mins

Right here now.
befor i crack on waffling as usual.
Eventually it will be a two tap keg 0 rator.
Trying to fit the co2 from an external tank, you need to know:
99.99% operation inside will be used on my good arm (right arm)
That may help you in your decision making to help where,what etc.
That look at the Ferm. Fridge.

Ok think a nuff for now, as there are loads of ways to do it.
Maybe help from you to how yous would tackle this?
Eventually, as I mentioned, will be 2 tap ootside the door.
hoping 3 gas line setup????
1&2 corni keg, third line blank for my beer gun for bottling.
one gas line long enough when i close transfer (cleaning & beer) outside the fridge.
i saw on maltmiller them single regs that might work in my build, not sure?

https://www.themaltmiller.co.uk/product/premium-co2-secondary-regulator/What you reckon on any part of the build.
Thanks so far for bearing with me lol.

Hello my old pal.
Light of day lol was up half five pondering.
And you said exactly what I eventually thought.
No fancy regs n stuff.
Use part I already have.
As you said tank outside.
Drill hole, 2 way splitter two gas lines (already got)
I have already got a two way splitter with plug outside, for the beer gun.
once this is complete.
two tap kits.
thinking 4ft beer line (I can adjust )
Only thing after that is get another ferm fridge. Keeping the keg orator for serving beer.
Got ink bird & small green house heat already. (Another eBay buy- bought to ink birds instead of one .
Off to a custom car show so I’ll carry on the nite.
Hope you all well and safe.

Morning all,
Was on a custom car show yesterday, so managed to cold crash my latest brew.
ready for the install.
Part 1.
Drill hole, gas line in.
For now two way splitter.
Gas line in keg, beer line after carbed up using party tap for now.
now as far as as tap and beer lines already reducers set up from keg, just need more 3/16” line (just incase.
Saw on malt miller there’s a 100mil shank tap kit? But not sure get away with the smaller shank kit (have to look at that.
Tbh o probs with the 100mil ones
I used them in my first single kegerator and in my keezer built.
I like the time taking compared to old school bottling etc.
Specially pressure fermentation, close transfer into keg & eventually beer gun into bottles.
Shaved a lot of the time.
Ok cost, but when you have the kit.
Now to do some online shopping..
Wish me luck lol
