!!! I bought a deep freeze yesterday 60bucks. The inside of the "big" section (the section without the corner used up for the compressor and such) is 28x29x(I cant remember how high) inches. The bottom right corner has a section used up for the compressor and such but its like its about 12x12x28 inches. And still has like 12x19x28inches above it thats open. So its a pretty good sized freezer. I think its like 14-16 cubic feet all together. I'm gonna get a temp controller and make it a kegerator. I will post the build with pics along the way.

the bottom square diameter is 28x29ish inches. kegs should be 9in diameter right? that means i should be able to get 6-9 in there right?

I think you're right. I was thinking kegs were 12", but that's not right at all.

I'm thinking 5-6.There's no starting point. It's just a massive sea of shit to wade through until you find the occasional corn kernel. -DrCurly -
not sure how many cubic feet for certain. but those are the dimensions. that section is at least 12.x cubic feet so im guessing 14-16 cubic feet.

I think the 13.something cuft ones are the most common for kegerator builds. I would guess at least 6 kegs."On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants -
well by the dimensions given if a keg is 9in in diameter then 9 should fit. its at least 28x28x28 which means even if they were 9 inch squares they should fit.

then there is that extra room above where the compressor and stuff is.

dunno. I just found the dimensions of some kegs online. it said 9in diameter. It may not be right... -

Oh. Maybe I'm wrong? I know it's shocking, but it happens once in a while."On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants -

Its not too short. its the height inside of a normal deep freeze. -

Build a collar i did out of 2x4s going to change it to 2x6s with oak fachia 1" thick sanded and stained light to bring out the wood textureAin't that a Bitch -

Agreed. I like the ability to mount the gas distribution/shut offs on that surface inside in the back also."On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants
How many kegs in a keezer?
