First, I'd like to address the comment "hope you like warm beer". Not sure what they're talking about. I have my thermostat set about 1 inch colder than "normal" on the dial. The fridge has two 1/6 kegs of Victory beer, both are ice cold. Initially I had it set much colder but the temperature readings were showing I was close to freezing. Ideally beer should be between 33F 38F.

Foaming

I initially had foaming issues. There are two ways I know how to fix this:

1) Get longer lines $10

2) Get a flow control tap $50

Personally, I opted for the lines. Buy something high quality. I went with 10' of BevLex 200 3/16 for each line from a local homebrew store. You can also purchase it online. Start with 10' and trim until it pours the way you want it to. You want the beer to "fall" out of the tap. The top of the tower pulls off. Under that there is a piece of Styrofoam. From there you can remove the taps/line. Call the Beverage Factory if you need any help, they're happy to do so.

If you're worried about the beer sitting in the line, don't. 10' of 3/16 line holds about 1.5 ounces of beer, which is basically nothing -I measured it. The beer is well carbonated and tastes amazing.

PSI/Regulator Carbonation levels

Your best bet on PSI/Regulator settings is to contact the brewery that makes the beer. They can give you the target PSI they serve there's at. Then, you can use this chart [google for Solubility-of-carbon-dioxide-in-beer] to find out what you should be setting your regulator to. Most beers will fall between 2.40 2.57. It's important to know what the temperature of your beer. co2 has different pressures at different temperatures. **TIP** place a glass of water in the fridge over night and temp that. It will give you a more accurate temperature than a free standing thermometer. Example: your beer is 36F, you want a target PSI of 2.40. Your regulator would need to be set somewhere between 9 10.

Overall, I'm very happy with this kegerator. Happy pouring!

It's a good first kegerator for the money. I homebrew and I've used this kegerator for ales, IPAs, stouts, belgian dubbles, and lagers. I use the 5 gallon homebrew kegs, so I can't comment on the commercial couplers. If you like higher carbonated beer, you may want to get a flow control tap since this kegerator comes with standard taps. (I've had foaming issues with anything over 8psi. Then again, if you're having foaming issue, you can use longer line from what I hear) I did run into an issue with one of the taps sticking, but that's semi-normal for these cheaper taps. As far as temps go, it keeps the beer cold enough for me. I've even had a beer line freeze at one point.

Honestly, looking back, I wish I would have just bought a mini fridge. That's all this thing is in the end... a mini fridge with a two inch how drilled in the top so you can screw on the draft tower.

If I were going to do this again I'd say just buy a good mini fridge and drill, baby, drill.

I bought this kegerator for my boyfriend for Christmas and it's exceeded both our expectations. The kegerator is sleek and stylish and fits in great in our living room. We're now the place where all of our friends want to gono more hanging out at local bars paying for overpriced beer when we can experience this at home! We got the D system coupler for Fat Tire and an S coupler for New Castle and Stella. The only bummer is we can't have two import kegs in there at the same time but that's not a big deal. Overall, we're really happy with our new "toy" and I'm really happy with the service provided thus far with Beverage Factory! A+++!!!

I would not recommend Haier kegerator, unless you like warm beer. I set it to it's coldest setting let it run for a day and the coldest it got was to 46 degrees Fahrenheit. As you know there's nothing better than warm beer. The really bad part of this is my wife ask me what I wanted for xmas, and I said I wanted a Danby kegerator it came highly recommended by a good friend. When she called "Beverage Factory" they said that Danby has a problem getting cold enough to get the beer to it's coldest optimal temperature. That they highly recommended Haier, but if you read between the lines what there really saying is that they get there most optimal profits selling haier. I also don't recommend the beverage factory. They never ask what kind of beer that you like to drink and that different beers have different types of couplers. So they just send off the standard American coupler. This doesn't work for Imported beers. Just bad all the way around, not to mention I probably lost a keg of Bass. The beer Gods are going to be very, very upset. "Don't buy from Beverage Factory" Try not to buy China Cr@p buy something thats made in the U.S. you can't go wrong. Good luck everybody and the next rounds on me!
