Three Top Tips for Keezer Conversions! + Limited Deals on Chest Freezers

keezer conversion tips

Updated: November 14, 2024

Chest freezers are great. They’re generally well priced and they’re space and energy efficient and can be easily had.

The primary idea with a chest freezer is to… freeze food. Also referred to as Deep Freezes, most models do not go through a defrost cycle. That’s a bummer come manual defrost time but outstanding for energy savings and food preservation.

Limited Time Deal on Chest Freezers:

chest freezer kegerator

As of this posting, Wal-Mart has Frigidaire chest freezers on sale. Prices includes free shipping to most US addresses.

Frigidaire 5.0 Cu. ft. Chest Freezer, White – on sale for $145

Frigidaire 7.0 Cu. ft. Chest Freezer, EFRF7003, White – on sale for $174

You could use this to put together a freezer based kegerator/keezer (See: Tips and Gear for your Kegerator) or temperature controlled fermentation chamber.

Side note… Because of the lack of a defrost cycle, chest freezers are great for storing hops – our hop deals roundup

Many people including myself have repurposed chest freezers as kegerators or “keezers”.

What does Keezer mean?  Keezer = kegerator + freezer.

To do the conversion you basically add a compatible temp controller – Inkbird deals and reviews – that will allow you to operate a chest freezer at fridge temps.  After that add some taps, maybe a collar, some kegs and a CO2 tank and you’re off and going!

The problem: Chest freezers are generally meant to operate at freezing temperatures, not beer serving temps. This causes issues with condensation and airflow. Left unhandled these issues can cause other problems, like sanitation issues.

Through several iterations of my own keezer, I’ve experienced all of these problems. I have a library of tips and resources that specifically apply to serving draft beer, but these are the top three when it comes to keezer conversions.

GovReg Commercial Quality Inline Secondary Regulators… Black Friday Sale!

govreg secondary regulators

Gov Reg In line Secondary via Keg Connection

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

The new Gov RegTM Inline Secondary Pressure Regulator will greatly minimize install time and wasted beer, ensuring an ideal pour every time! Since it requires the adjuster tool, you can set the desired pressure once and not worry about changing pressures or people messing with your set pressure. The Gov Reg is great for use in short draw & long draw beer delivery systems, kegs in series, wine on tap, and soda soft drink pressurized delivery systems.

Note: Product requires Adjuster Tool in order to set desired pressure

 

This allows you to set one pressure per line to assist with

serving beers at different carbonation levels.  Note that you do need a tool (linked on the product page) to set this.  You may also need an adapter to interface with homebrew style lines, also linked on the product page.  It’s kind of tough to tell from the photo how large this is.  For some size perspective, check out the photo on the right.  The Gov Reg is installed on the Sanke.  Check product page for current price and availability.

Gov Reg In line Secondary

What’s the difference between this and Kegland’s Inline Secondary?  The GovReg costs more than the Kegland Inline Secondary, although it’s still economical compared to multi-bodied regulators. The biggest difference is going to be that GovReg is a heavy duty commercial quality solution.

Save via Keg Connection’s Black Friday Sale!

  • As of this posting, Keg Connection is discounting loads of gear with discounts of up to 50%!
  • Shipping is flat rate, no matter how much you order, to US addresses

This shank features a built in flow compensator that allows you to adjust the resistance your faucet is exerting.  That means less tubing and potentially less foaming and wasted beer. The compensation feature also makes it easier to serve higher carbonation beers as you can set the faucet to provide resistance to offset the increased pressure needed to store and serve these beers at higher pressures.  Instead of replacing your beer line with ever increasing lengths of tubing, you simply turn a knob to increase resistance.

Why Use a Longer Shank?  Generally speaking, a Longer Shank = Less Foam”.  A longer shank means… a colder faucet.  More mass inside your kegerator or keezer keeps your faucet colder and reduces foam.  More Info: Step by Step: Balancing Your Kegerator Draft System

Kegerator Tubing – Barbed vs Flare Fittings – what should you use?

YaeBrew Gas Manifold, Beer Gas Distributor, Air Distributor CO2 Manifold - Splitter 5/16" Barb Fittings (4 Way)Pictured: YaeBrew Gas Manifold, Beer Gas Distributor, Air Distributor CO2 Manifold – Splitter 5/16″ Barb Fittings (4 Way)

I think that the general consensus among homebrewers and home kegerator builders is that… MFL/Flare/Swivel connections are superior to barbed connections.  That’s just my read on the situation, no scientific basis for that statement.  After all, MFL swivel thingies look cool, they’re easy to attach and you can take tubing on and off easily and.  The total solution, including swivels also generally costs more… more expensive = more better… right?

My take on the matter…

For gas lines: Personally, I prefer barb fittings on CO2 lines as they don’t loosen over time.  Use a quality clamp and you have a solid connection that should not loosen or leak over time.  Moving kegs and lines around could conceivably loosen MFL connections and a CO2 leak is invisible.  Even a small, slow leak could equal an emptied CO2 tank.

For liquid lines: A liquid leak is a lot more obvious.  A little dripping from a liquid MFL line would tell you that the line has loosened.  I generally use flare swivels on liquid lines.  I do still use barbs on tail pieces because that’s kind of a tight spot on my kegerator that makes it difficult to turn a wrench.

Of course you can use whatever you want.  If you use MFL, I suggest periodically tightening swivels to make sure you always have a good, solid connection.

Using a layer of defense to detect against kegerator CO2 leaks…

Placing a CO2 Monitor with alarm inside of your kegerator can serve as another line of defense to protect against co2 leaks and loss. CO2 should not be building up in your kegerator. A CO2 monitor with alarm can alert you of this condition.

This is not a replacement for checking for CO2 leaks using traditional methods, rather a another layer that could save you a trip to swap out a CO2 tank.

Why a THREE pressure regulator?  A three pressure regulator gives you the ability to keep kegs at different pressures.  This is a requirement to maintain two distinct carbonation levels.  It’s also handy if you want to force carbonate a keg more quickly, at a higher pressure, while maintaining your standard serving pressure on a keg that’s already being served or if you want to have a utility line for purging kegs and such.

Using a layer of defense to detect against kegerator CO2 leaks…

Placing a CO2 Monitor with alarm inside of your kegerator can serve as another line of defense to protect against co2 leaks and loss. CO2 should not be building up in your kegerator. A CO2 monitor with alarm can alert you of this condition.

This is not a replacement for checking for CO2 leaks using traditional methods, rather a another layer that could save you a trip to swap out a CO2 tank.
