Dude great job documenting this. I have had these parts and pieces in my garage for almost a year. Welcomed our second daughter in our house and never picked up this project until I was in the liquor store yesterday and bought a 1/6th keg of our favorite beer - needed the motivation. This video is awesome - thanks man!
I’ve made a few of these as well. I learned that the hole beneath the tower only has to be as big as the beer line or you are just letting more too much air out of the fridge. Call it keeping the tower cold, but I’ve found that some pipe insulation does the trick. No reason for a hole that large -and I’ve even hit a Freon line once and ruined that unit. Keep up the good work.
the19thhole hey! That’s great feedback and something I realized as well when I was rewatching this video. I used pipe insulation up the tower, and siliconed it to the inside of the fridge to minimize draft. Ideally I would of thought that part through a bit more, but we all live and learn, and I think I’ve mitigated the mistake pretty well.
You should do more videos, man. You’ve got a gift. I know, I know... you’ve got oodles and oodles of time for that just now. Lol. But seriously. This was quite an enjoyable viewing.
In the video you can see I used alcohol and flour to see what areas evaporated, it all evaporated evenly indicating there were no lines running through the fridge cabinet itself. The cooling mechanism was entirely contained to the panel I was able to move to the side.
Great job! I'm sorta doing the same thing. I'm making a carbonator. I plan on bending small diameter copper tube and putting that in a portable fridge, to chill it before it is dispensed. Thanks for the pointers. I will be using them.
Great!! Let me know how it comes out. I'm always interested in other peoples projects, especially when they are similar and executed differently from mine. I think in one of the other comments I mentioned that I plan on building a jockey box eventually as well so I can have keg fresh beer for outdoor events at home, or the holidays where it's easier to setup upstairs or on a porch, as opposed to having people go up and down the basement stairs all day. (Because let's be honest, the Kegerator is in the basement workshop ;) )
Awesome! I can't tell you how much I appreciate the sub! I've got a million videos in the works but that pesky 'life' and 'work' thing keeps getting in the way!
You got it! I try really hard to share my learning process after some critical thinking. My hope is to show or at least mention what didn't work, and focus on sharing what did work.
Thanks! I appreciate the positive feedback. I enjoy problem solving while working on projects like this, it's usually much more fun than planning to a T.
If I was starting this project from scratch, that would be super valid! I already had this mini fridge and MOST of the parts to do it. This was an exercise in spending as little as possible to have a decent product as an end result. If I was doing this from scratch, the end result would be very different. My cost was about $30 more than what I had spent on keeping my previous kegerator in good shape so I didn’t mind. This was a 2 evening project, that certainly could of been done faster with a bit more planning. I do these for fun, not perfection. All factory functionally of the fridge unit was retained, I ended up adding a thermometer through the door later on, and it stays at a steady 35 degrees f. The first glass is sometimes a little foamy, but the second is always 35f. Cheers man!
Honestly is the best policy. :D I need to get back to videoing my endeavors and projects. I'm here to have fun and get things done I want to get done, so never expect a perfectly polished DIY channel, but pretending like I don't make mistakes isn't worth anybody's time.
Cool! I've been considering making a 'snow powered' jockey box from a cheap cooler. It would be a fun thing for holidays where we want the keg right on the front porch as opposed to the basement, or I'm trying to keep my pesky family members away from a special brew! :P
Hey Jake, very nice work little hesitant on taking on this project because I don't want to screw it up. But I need to finish the project. Do you remember the dimensions for this fridge? I need to place in 29hX20Wx20D cabinet and not sure if your keg setup was for half barrel?
Hi Daniel! Sorry for the delay. It's a small weird sized fridge from college, the keg only fit after a TON of clearance, but it made it about the smallest package possible, and it was something I already had sitting in my basement. This was setup for the typical sixtel that the smaller breweries in my state have available for sale and it's worked out great. I noticed this Wormtown sixtel was bigger than other ones I had had, so I used this one to ensure anything else would fit, and it's worked great since.
killswitchh nice! How did the project turn out? Did you try alcohol and flour or just go for it? I think the compressor is dying in the mini fridge after a few years of valiant service as a mini fridge, so it might be time to upgrade our kitchen fridge and get a bigger kegerator!
Hey Andrew, it was all fitment based. That's the compressor. It looks like I just flipped it, moving the obtrusion from one side to the other, but in doing so I was able to move it BACK an inch which meant I could cut much less of the fridge apart...ironic given how much I had to cut out, but here we are. :D
This is fine for the Cornelius five gallon kegs but when one uses a standard pony keg from one of the major beer houses, this unit is useless and it’s not worth transferring beer from one keg to another. If you can find a small chest freezer that allows a pony keg to fit flat on the bottom it worth the money. Just follow other YT's making Keezers.
So is that whole inside hump/ledge free of anything you can hit? I think i have that same mini fridge and need some holes in the side/back looks like that big area you cut out was safe, is the top side of it safe also?!?
Notice the cooling panel on the INSIDE of the fridge was rotated down to be alongside the keg. Otherwise the cabinet itself IS clear off internally run lines!
Got to 2.50 and thought that fridge will never work again.....I was wrong... did a similar thing with a fridge that fitted the keg and regulator without mods... sooooo much easier...
Throbin 2 it’s hard not to feel that way when you’re trying to take as little as possible lol! Thanks for making it through the whole video. Unfortunately the compressor has since kicked the bucket, so I think when we get a new kitchen fridge this hardware will make its way in our old fridge. Still sixtels but with room for craft cans.
@@jakesteve5803 excellent work... well done for persevering.. home brew and kegging is so satisfying. Excellent production and content too... happy brewing
Hey Dave, the freezer on this unit from the factory is a little...half assed...from the factory. it’s just a smaller insulated chamber at the top of the fridge, it barely kept things frozen, but removing that chamber made room for the keg, and the overall performance/temps of the keg have remained perfect. The compressor has stated to get weak so an upgrade may be in order.
Dave Rosenthal dude it happens. My life is a constant state of break it, build it, repeat. Right now my Forester is getting a sleeved closed deck motor. If that’s any consolation of the nonsensical way I choose to live my beautiful life. And heck yeah, V2 will have room for cans next to the keg!! Plus the wife will get a pretty fridge. She will like that.
Dave Rosenthal it’s been a long term project. Got the block at a junk yard, bought the sleeves, traded work for head cores, friend had an unused STi crank and rods that he needed out of the way, I had a saw I rebuilt he needed. You’re right about the machine time and blueprinting labor, but I like to swap and trade my way into things over time.
Vormulac1 I actually addressed that! I used alcohol and flour to check for temperature differentiation across the top, and bent the interior cooling element down while drilling. Thanks for the compliments, I enjoyed this project quite a bit. Looking forward to doing a kitchen remodel so I can move this hardware into a full sized fridge.
Hi Andrew, sorry I missed this before! I'm not sure, the three local breweries I get kegs from all use corny kegs. This one happened to be the largest so it's what I based this project around!
Hi Fio, I used a bit of vodka and flour. The vodka evaporates quicker where it's warm, showing if there are any lines inside the fridge walls! If you puncture a line, you have ruined the fridge which I didn't want to do. It worked perfect in confirming for me that there were no lines I needed to be concerned about.
Erik Johnson I appreciate that! Haha. Yeah I like low centers of gravity, lots of grip, playing with tools, and building guns. Nice to meet ya! Hoping to make some more videos soon, most likely the projects I’ll be taking on outfitting my new shed.
Hi Paulo, sorry I missed that! There's actually a ring for the tower that screwed down into the wood so I routed a channel for it to fit, then did the bottle caps and resin over it. It's permanently affixed, but doesn't need to be removed to be serviced.
Zero that’s something you need to ask yourself! For me, these projects are a lot of fun and a great excuse to play with power tools. I had a lot of the old hardware from a dinosaur of a kegerator already that was inefficient, and a Minifridge from college. I am about $100 out of pocket into this project and am very glad I did it.
Hi Donna! The cutting room floor has me removing the stickers after a beer or two too many. I managed to not break any components with this project. I'm on my second sixtel since, and have learned quite a bit about my design since then actually. If you take on a project like this, I suggest asking a local beer shop if they have a couple sixtels so you can find out the biggest measurement each sixtel design may have, and clearance accordingly. At a glance, this was the fattest sixtel I had to date. The second one I got had some ridges that weren't on the first one, and made it to close the door. A razor blade clearanced it mostly, and a ratchet strap helped indent them nicely and make the fit juuuuust right!
Hi Pedro! The drip tray is a feature I decided to add to minimize the mess a beer that spills a bit makes. The tray that is mounted flush with the top collects spills and drips, and runs down into the Kegerator. Inside, is an empty growler with the hole drilled through the cap, and the drain hose runs into the growler. Once a week I empty and rinse the growler out. :) It makes it very simple and easy to keep the mess down with the drain. I like it a lot, and I'm glad I chose to build a drain into it!
cool build, but that beer pour around 20:25 would've gotten you a smack from grandpa from my household, wtf kinda pour was that?! lol I needed to get some sort of inspiration for a similar project, instead of it dispensing beer I plan to build a smartender on the top of it that pre-mixes cocktails on the fly (I should put a coin-op in for the family members that come over LOL)
Your grandpa would of been well within his rights for that one. I like playing with power tools after a couple too many beers on the weekend, and the pours start to get sloppy as the night goes on. :D Good luck with the smartender, those get pretty tricky! I had seen one done with a raspberry pi, but they require a lot of maintenance to ensure things pour consistent amounts.
That is actually the proper way to pour most beers, it opens the beer up properly and releases any excess c02 that you would otherwise be ingesting which causes extra bloating. It also gives the beer the proper texture, one that is more similar to draft beer. The tilted pour became popular in america due to our impatient culture and the need to serve more customers at a faster pace.

@@leoszky1659 I also usually only want a sixtel at a time. In my area I'm spoiled with a LOT of incredible local beer. So I keep a stand by sixtel, and happily grab cans at local breweries. It keeps everything fresh, (and COLD!)
Leonard Sawatzky I brewed with my friend a few times before he moved so it’s usually one of a couple breweries in my state, (MA. Thankfully, treehouse doesn’t sell kegs or I’d be way to fat...)
Hatchet job, too big of a hole on top, no idea why you opened up the back, everyone needs to know that the sides have coils, need to be careful. The drain spout was pointless. Just a tray would have worked. And should have not flattened out the freezer to keep cold glasses
I already had the fridge and most of the parts. All in, 2 evenings of futzing around in the basement for fun and learning and less than $100. When small minifridges start around $100, this was a no brainer for me personally given I already had it. It may not be for you.

Yea how did u know where to drill

Thanks! I appreciate the positive feedback. I enjoy problem solving while working on projects like this, it's usually much more fun than planning to a T.
Good instructions on the alcohol flour mix... Could really see where it dried...
Could of saved yourself how many hours just get a bigger fridge? And i didn't see the cold control go back in? Hope your beer don't freeze.

Wonder if you could alleviate most of these problems by simply turning the fridge upside-down.
Upside down = compressor burn out….
