Do you have a spare fridge in your garage? Maybe it is just sitting there taking up space. Or maybe it houses a few sodas or beers that you keep on hand for parties or just for when friends come over. Did you ever think that there could be a better use for that fridge?

It is extremely simple and affordable to use a Kegerator Conversion Kit to turn that old disused fridge into a piece of equipment that will have everyone coming over to your house for parties. Superbowl parties, Oscar parties, birthday parties or just a summer cookout. Whatever the event, doing a Kegerator Conversion to that old fridge will make your next event one to remember.

What is a Kegerator Conversion?

Quite simply, a Kegerator Kit turns a fridge into a cold beer keg with beer always on tap and at just the right temperature. Forget parties with warm beer or a fridge packed so full the door will not close. A Kegerator Kit uses compressed CO2 and a standard beer tap assembly inside an already existing fridge, which means cold beer is always on tap for any event.

How hard is it to install a Kegerator Kit?

Do it yourself Kegerators have been around for a while. They could be cumbersome and hard to get working properly. But a Kegerator Kit comes with all the parts you need and an instruction manual for easy installation.

It requires nothing more than a few connections and running the hoses. And they are just as easy to maintain. A good Kegerator kit even comes with a beer volume and temperature monitoring device so you know when you are low or when the beer is cold enough to drink.

Why should I get a Kegerator Conversion Kit instead of buying cans and bottles?

A Kegerator kit will not only dispense cold beer and keep it fresh for months, it is also an economical choice for anyone who throws more than a few parties. The cost of cans and bottles can really pile up. A Kegerator not only means no more cans and bottles to deal with after the party, but it can save money as well.

Kegerators also hold different sizes of beer kegs. A full sized keg will fit inside for a big party, or several pony kegs can fit inside for smaller parties. You are only limited by the size of the fridge.
So if you like to throw parties, but you are looking for that extra piece of hardware to set your party over the top, it is time to consider a Kegerator Conversion Kit. Easy to use, cheap to buy and a party sized supply of cold beer. It is time to put that old fridge in the garage to good use.

If you've even been to a party with a kegerator, you already know what a great party item they can be. But there are a lot of people out there who think there's no way they could afford one.

Building your own kegerator can not only give you a great party piece, but you can save a load of money compared to the pre-made ones. Even if you aren't a do-it-yourselfer you can still put together a kegerator. And if you happen to know someone with an old fridge they want taken off their hands, you can do it for next to nothing. And since they're so popular at parties, it's a sure bet that a couple friends would be happy to help out.

The first thing you are going to need is a refrigerator. Even the bottom-of-the-line models can run $400 or more and they come with things like storage shelves, crispers and humidity control that you aren't going to need anyways.

Your best bet is to find someone with an old fridge they want to get rid of. You might be able to get one for free, but at the most you will be spending substantially less than if you buy something from a showroom.

The next step in making a kegerator is to buy a kegerator conversion kit from a retailer. These kits are not typically very expensive and they should come with everything you need to turn the old fridge into a kegerator. Most importantly, they should come with instructions on how to put everything together and what to do to the fridge.

You will have to run lines for the tap which go through the fridge doors so make sure you have the tools needed to complete the job. Since you need things like gauges and compressed CO2, you're not going to be able to build this part from scratch.

Installing the kit in the fridge is the hard part, once that's done you should be home free. Most fridges will hold a standard-size keg and the process of attaching it should be straight forward. Most kegerator kits come with complete instructions on the process from installing the kit to hooking up a keg.

After you have the kegerator built and everything ready to go, you get to the fun part. The great thing about building your own keg is that you can customize it however you want. If you use it for football parties you can paint it the color of your favorite team or you can keep it black with stainless steel for something more upscale.

A metal fridge can even hold magnets so you can change your style around or put up pictures of friends at past parties. You can also get custom tap handles and serving glasses for almost every occasion or hobby. Anyone can buy a kegerator online, but having one that you built and customized yourself will give everyone a great reason to talk about your last party.
