It was suggested a few posts ago. A great solution, but I cannot justify bringing that in a size limited expedition 8-12 hours away. This is what I will do for my next wedding or large birthday party. In March I lugged my keezer across town. Definitely not worth it.
You might be onto something actually. I was very hesitant to having MANY 1 gallons because I figured I could just bring growlers. With the height restriction, maybe I should be looking into seeing how many 4L oxebars I can fit, get a divider for the vertical keg section (for serving), and then I...
Good setup, but still pretty small. Honestly, at 1 gallon each it really seems pretty silly. I guess if I wanted to bring (3) or (4), 1 gallon samples that would be OK, but most of the time I have 2 pretty good beers that I would like to bring as much as possible. I really would prefer to not go...
That is always a good solution for something local, but not reasonable space wise on a longer trip. We always used a trash can for 1/2bbl kegs back in the day. It works.
I am not as concerned about the weight as an assembly as much I am with how much space it takes up and how many trips I am making back and forth to the vehicle. The 70qt Igloo Cooler is a reasonable size and can hold everything in one rolling setup. Which is where I am setting the bar with this...
Don't tempt me with a good time.
I have a nice MIG and I am pretty good with mild steel.
If I started another project like that - I am pretty sure I would end up divorced. Maybe something I can remember for next summer. Now I am wondering if I need to just build an enclosure that holds (2) of...
Those style coolers would work for shorter periods of time, but if I need to drive 8-12 hours I am going to need a lot of ice packs.
Those coolers are never really water proof so I can't just throw ice in there for a 8+ hour drive without having a trash bag around it. I would consider...
Good reminder. I will make sure I put a check valve in regardless. Thank you.
I wonder if it would leak that way. The 110qt Sunset Glide does not have the height for 3 gallon kegs. I think the 90qt Latitude has the required length to lay down so I am sure the 110qt Sunset Glide does too. I...
It will never be a mild climate in my situation - I live in Florida and most of the situations where I will be using this are going to be at a pool, the beach, or tailgating when its 90-100F with direct sun all day. Sometimes I might need to be able to keep the beer cold for an entire weekend...
I have not looked at them yet. I would probably not consider the 4L, but I would consider the 8L. It is pretty tall still so I had not really looked at them. Tilting them to the side might gain me more space. I don't think I would be able to get my hands on the Pancho either. The Igloo 10gallon...
Maybe. I am all for DIY, but I am still considering not having any permanent modifications to the chamber and only using picnic taps. I also am pretty sure I'd ruin a perfectly good cooler even though I'm decent for a DIYer. Not like I'd ever do a dovetail joint for skill reference.
As far as...
I suppose that could be an easy enough option if I can get the lid to seal up similarly. Would allow to have taps without permanent modifications. I'd need to insulate and waterproof it pretty good. Not the worst idea.
