Hey Kal -
Im adding a chest freezer to store/lager/stage while the kegerator is full. Are you using a 6-way manifold in your fridge to carb while you store? Splitters? Or something else?
Thanks man!

Yup!

I have 6 QDs for gas in my conditioning fridge to carb up up to 6 kegs. It's split with a 4-way manifold and then two of the lines have a tee in them to further split. You can really do this any way you like. Could use all tee's if you want. Won't make a difference other than possible usability/how the hoses are organized.
Cheers!
Kal

Perfect. Exactly the direction I was headed.
Appreciate the quick reply Kal.

Kal, if I can piggyback on this.
What model conditioning/lagering fridge do you have? I'm pretty much cloning your brewery exactly, but I couldn't tell what type of commercial frigidaire it was.

It's a Frigidaire FCRS201RFB, bought around 2012. I purposely leave out the model number as it's now discontinued. Different models would now be available. I simply wanted something that would hold 6 kegs and not have all the 'junk' that regular household fridges have. I just wanted shelves and nothing on the door.

Good luck!
Kal
