Kegerator Fridge Set Up

Pouring crisp, fresh beer on tap at home requires clean and fresh beer lines. Whenever you change your keg over its a good idea to flush out your beer lines. How do you do it?

A kegerator is essentially just a fridge purpose built to keep beer cold! It is a nice and simple setup with a font fan which blows cold air directly up through your font, and keeps your the beer lines cool and your beer nice and cold. It's pretty simple, let me show you how it works.

You've got a 19L corny keg for your kegerator system, but how do you connect it so that the beer comes out the taps? Let me show you how to connect your kegs and get your beer on tap pouring like a pro.

There are lots of parts to a homebrew corny keg - the relief valve, keg lid and seals, gas post, liquid posts and the disconnects connect the keg to the beer and gas lines (super important to getting the beer out). What are they are all and how do they go together? I'll show you.

If you're going to use a commercial keg in your kegerator (Keg King Series 4 and XL fit one 50L commercial keg) you’ll need couplers to connect it to the system. There are two main types: A Type Coupler and D Type Coupler. Which one do you need and how do you connect it to your home brew set up?

So, your beer is pouring too heady. This happens because you’ve either over carbonated or over gassed the beer or your pouring pressure is too high. Want to know what to do and how to stop this from happening?

CO2 gas is what is used to carbonate beer (and any other beverages you want to have on tap). The gas also pushes the beer through the beer lines, out the tap and into your glass - cheers to that! How do you connect you CO2 Gas Bottle to your kegerator system? Let me show you.

How do I check for leaks in my gas bottle? It's one of the most common questions we get from home brewers.  You can lose a whole bottle of gas overnight with the slightest of leaks. So what do you need to do to check for leaks?
