How to Make a Beer Dispenser for the Refrigerator

Would you like to come home from a hard day of work and enjoy a perfectly poured beer from the comfort of your own home? Imagine having friends and family over and not having to pay store prices to stock up on refreshments. By converting an ordinary fridge to dispense beer, you save yourself time, money and stress. Why not make things as convenient as possible for yourself? Converting a fridge into a beer dispenser is perfectly safe and doesn't add any stress to the refrigerator. Just set the fridge at your preferred temperature and you're good to go.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Drill
• Flat-head screwdriver
• Drill bit
• Goggles
• Keg regulator
• 4-foot hoses
• Shank
• Gas cylinder
• Faucet

1. Take out all shelves and drawers from your fridge. Measure the height, width and depth of the inside of your refrigerator.

2. Buy an appropriately sized keg. Although kegs come in a variety of sizes, the most common are the mini-keg, the quarter barrel and the half-keg.

3. Find a suitable place on the inside of the refrigerator door to drill a hole completely through from the front. This should be near the top of the door, a couple inches down.

4. Place the shank into the newly drilled hole from the front and secure it with a nut on the inside of the fridge door.

5. Place the CO2 tank and the keg inside the refrigerator, and attach the hose from the gas tank to the keg regulator. Use a flat-head screwdriver to ensure that the hose is securely attached.

6. Attach the faucet to the shank and tighten the nut clockwise.

7. Attach another hose line through the shank from the keg.

Tips & Warnings

• Do not set the PSI on your gas tank too high for your keg size. Follow the recommendation that comes with the conversion kit.
