A Keg Refrigerator keeps cold beer on tap.

A Kegerator is an old fridge that has been converted into a cold storage and tap unit for beer kegs. Rather than having dozens of bottles and cans strewn around a party, a Kegerator ensures that there will always been a plentiful supply of cold beer on tap. No more warm beer at the end of the party, a Keg Refrigerator means cold beer all night long.

What do I need for a Keg Refrigerator?

Keg Refrigerators come with a basic set of accessories. They all have a CO2 tank which is what actually moves the beer from the keg to the glass in your hand. Every CO2 tank needs a regulator to go with it. The regulator keeps track of the pressure in the CO2 tank and lets you see when you are running low.


Other Kegerator accessories include a beer and air line, which is where the beer flows from the keg’s tap to the cup. There is always a faucet as well. This is where the beer is poured from the external point on the fridge. Usually, people will install a drip tray as well to ensure their carpet or floors do not get stained.

Can I customize my Keg Refrigerator with accessories?


One of the great things about converting your own fridge to a Kegerator is that you can do it however you like. There are many different options for Kegerator accessories. You can have tap handles in almost any design or shape you want, they can be anything from cars to sports team logos to musical instruments. They are all available to buy or you can even make your own. Since a Kegerator is still essentially a refrigerator, you can even store cold, frosty mugs inside or keep the glasses cool next to the keg.

There are plenty of Kegerator accessories available for any type of keg fridge. Even mini fridges can be converted into Kegerators that can hold pony kegs. No matter what kind of Keg Refrigerator you are making or what the occasion is, there are plenty of accessories to personalize it to fit your party needs and your own personal style.
