Red devil 44 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 (edited) Hi @kmar92@Mickep this is the small repair kit I bought from KL about 3 yrs ago, the large box just has spare taps, keg seals, lube, odds & sods. There is a Kegland part number on the box - KL06330 Edited February 28, 2022 by Red devil 44 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4 tap kegerator is setup with lines, reg, manifold, and ready to go as it was a demo model which was and still is fully functional. Spare parts? It sounds like you have an exciting adventure ahead of you mate & you did well to score that unit, good luck with it & enjoy while some of us mugs are still bottling As it has been said before there is heaps of advice & experience on every topic on this great forum. I will definitely do something about it eventually as I have plenty of room for one of those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kegerator would look good & be very useful in my Bar/Brewroom as I have a bit of traffic through here & also it would look better than cartons of grog stacked everywhere.

I would just have to do a crash course in kegging @Classic Brewing CoI find kegging quite easy but I’ve had a lot of gas experience as a tradie, run CO2 lines for Casinos, RSL,s, Pubs, Clubs etc. Picked up some good tips from experienced cellar men in my time also. ‘But when you make the jump I & many others will assist you, 2 critical things you need with kegging/serving, correct temperature & delivery pressure, get those 2 right and you’ll be laughing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, I appreciate that, I have a few mates with Kegerators below is Hammo's he is a Landscaper but only buys the kegs full of beer on a change-over system, my pilot Josh does the same, the other bloke has a very old model from memory he has got an old 18gallon or similar in it, works OK but his beer is pretty ordinary.

Thanks for your offer of help. @Classic Brewing CoKegerator looks good set up like that. ‘Yeah my LHBS sells ready made swap over style kegs with different flavours from Pale Ales, Lagers, he seems pretty expensive, around $80-90 a full keg. ‘I enjoy brewing & learning so I’d rather make my own AG. I have a 2 tap Kegerator plus a 4 tap keezer I built. ‘Next set up I am going to use a large 520L fridge, so hopefully fit 4 kegs & taps etc. Reason being it’s easier on my back changing kegs over in a fridge rather than a chest freezer. My brother has already claimed my keezer once I build the keg fridge. At some stage this year I’ll take a few weeks leave and build it, can take my time as I already have beer on tap, so no great hurry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The photo of my mate's set up is typical of what he does, he is a perfectionist & there is nothing wrong with that, he can afford to pay $80 for a keg of beer as he is always entertaining, so now the SWMBO is happy as he spends more time home instead of the Pub every night but I know for a fact he is drinking more. I have been around there a few times & the beer is OK but only clones of actual recipes & does lack the foaming head & hop bite that we are used to. The other problem is then you have to drive home but only 1.5km. Edited February 28, 2022 by Classic Brewing Co 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah fair enough @Classic Brewing Co I may lash out & buy a keg just to see, the LHBS has said I can just bring in one of my kegs and fill, and has invited me down to brew with him which I may do. I said to him if I help you brew it do I get a discount on the beer, he said maybe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go 4 taps to take advantage of the variety you can have on tap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky Micky Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 okay this is the updated KL shopping list. They are out of stock with the bottle cap connectors and I'm still to figure out which black disconnect I need for the closed transfer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
