Mini keezer build

After a long deliberation I have decided to downsize from Yuri (4 tap fridge) to a smaller unnamed keezer. The switch necessitated going back to ball lock kegs from pin locks. My first step (pictured here) is the assembly of a 3 tap tower on the keezer lid.

It's a bastard job to change the back kegs in Stanley, plus there are always 2 taps that don't get frequent use and stick around like a bad case of herpes.

I personally find it to be a pita to swap out kegs. I also find that brewing 10G less often is hurting my ability to experiment with styles/recipes.

Never fear! I brought my fermentation chamber back into the house as it was my previous kegerator. I've got a freezer lined up from Keith, but I need to get it from Sackville to Westville.
