A Kegerator In The Kitchen?
Yes You Can.

A kegerator is not just for the bar areas and game rooms of your home. You can now get a unit that can get built into your new kitchen. These units can also be installed in an existing kitchen without having to rip the whole kitchen apart.



The average complete built in unit starts at $750 and goes up from there. This cost can be made up over time; depending on how much you drink of course. The average cost of a 12 oz. glass of beer from a keg is half the price of a can or bottle. Not to mention the quality of beer from a keg is much better.

How awesome would it be to have a draft beer in your kitchen whenever you wanted it. Units that fit into the base cabinets do not take up a lot of room so the countertop area is still useful, but the draft tower does protrude through the countertop. These units come in various colors to match your appliances so they don't stick out from the design.

The ability of these units to keep the temperature of the keg just right will further enhance your draft brew experience. No need to go to a bar to get the perfect pour of your favorite beer.

Another great way to get your favorite beer is to brew it yourself. You can buy home brew kegs and make and store your very own recipe of beer, and for the true beer enthusiast there is no better beer than the kind you make yourself. You can control everything, from the ingredients to the water you use, when you brew your own beer.

If you're interested in learning how to make and store homebrewed beer, as well as learning how to balance your keg. Check out this kegging page from Winning-Homebrew.com.

There are also kits available to convert an old refrigerator into a kegerator. These are more economical if you already have the extra refrigerator. This type may not be suitable for the kitchen itself, but may fit nicely into a pantry or another area of your house.

The under counter units allow you to use different size kegs; the 1/4 short keg, the 1/6 keg, and the 1/2 keg. So depending on how much of a beer drinker you are will depend on how big of a keg to get. The average freshness time of a pressurized keg of beer is 90 to 120 days. If the keg is not pressurized it will last up to 60 days.

The cost of a built-in kegerator can be offset by the savings over packaged beer. Not to mention the time involved to return the cans to the store for the deposit or the time to recycle them. Plus the fact that beer always tastes better when it's on tap.
