Danby DKC5811BSL Keg Cooler - Stainless Look
Danby 5.8 cu ft Kegerator
The Danby DKC5811BSL 5.8 cu ft kegerator is a very good unit for the price. Plus it is American made! That is not the case for the majority of inexpensive kegerators out there. That being said, since this is an inexpensive model there is good and bad. First let's go with the good: A 5lb aluminum CO2 tank, dual gage regulator showing tank pressure and beer line pressure, enough room to hold two 1/6 kegs without a problem, no problems holding temperature of the keg at 36 degrees, externally mounted CO2 tank to extend the refill time of your CO2, includes a good D type coupler to connect the keg, it looks good. Now for the bad: This is a cold plate refrigerator, so the temperature is constantly fluctuating and a circulation fan is needed (I used a 120mm computer fan with 4 screws to hold up off of bottom and an old 6v cell phone charger to power with the line run through the same hole as CO2 line), Some type of tower cooler is needed otherwise your first beer poured will be foam...
Bought at a local store - Hops & Harvest
I bought a multitap head (3) and love everyting about it. I'm a homebrewer and can fit 3 of my kegs in there. Highly recommed!
3 kegs gone and not a problem yet.
working on my third keg and has worked great since i assembled it .It will also get really cold.I had it set at 8 to 9 it froze the beer lines had to turn it down.
