Kegerator

rdf:langString Kegerator

rdf:langString Kegerator, a portmanteau of keg and refrigerator, is a refrigerator that has been designed or altered to store and dispense kegs. The kegerator keeps the keg in a refrigerated environment and uses CO2 to pressurize and dispense beverages from the keg. This keeps the contents of the keg fresh and carbonated for an extended period of time, on average up to 60 days. Specifically designed kegerators are available for both commercial and residential use, however, a common refrigerator can be reconfigured into a kegerator with a kegerator conversion kit. Not all standard refrigerators have enough room for a keg, so kegerators are designed in a manner that will allow one or more kegs to fit inside along with the dispensing system. Kegerators are typically used to dispense draft beer, but are also gaining popularity for dispensing wine, cold brew coffee, and kombucha with certain modifications.
