3 taps fitted, just waiting for the fourth with a stout tip, ignore the wet touch up paint. the wonky middle tap will be corrected too as the hole is true

Does anyone have a smart way of neatening / pinning the gas and beer lines? Ive coiled 10ft beer lines and taped them but even then its a bit of a pain in the **** to close the door.
 
Are you using 3/8" line?
You could just reduce it to 3/16" and 1m should be enough to stop foaming. You just need 2 x 3/8 to 3/16 reducers and a very short piece of 3/8" hose connected to both the disonnect on the keg and the tap.
 
This is a bit of a sod tho, as a former PC engineer i hate non routed cables so a mess of pipes does my OCD no favours. Will have to see if i can tidy them up some how. Its going to be a squeeze with 4 kegs and the pipes but ill make it work

Hey all,

Does anyone have any knowledge of either the Mangrove Jacks Kegerator or the Keg Master series 4? They seem to be very similar and at similar prices so would love to find out from people with first hand knowledge what they think of these before i pull the trigger. Links below

And just to stop the thread going off topic, alas i do not have time to build one even though it may be a lot cheaper.

Thanks all!

I’m a bit behind on this one so may or not be useful input:
I have the 3-tap Grainfather Kegerator and noticed the steady temperature inside was quite a bit warmer than displayed on the flashy blue display so decided to do some tests - Set controller to 0C and measured (2-thermometers) stable temp 3.4C at bottom and 4.5C near the thermostat. I am finding there is a consistent error of about 4C at higher setting too. Maybe that is within the spec limits but pretty **** if it is as I planned to use for fast chilling too. Anyone else see this kind of error?
 
All finished and installed in its new home! Now just need to brew some beer!!
