It started, cooled the unit until the appropriate temperature was reached, then turned itself off. Now I just have to run the gas lines and see how it goes with actually cooling beer. This will require a little bit more hardware, although I&#8217;ll probably only fit it out for two kegs for the time being, as that&#8217;s how many I have. It&#8217;s too bad that my current kegs are also almost empty, as I won&#8217;t be able to run it fully loaded. I guess it&#8217;ll be time to brew more soon.<\/p>\n<p>I also need to consider monitoring temperature in the unit or attaching the probe to a specific keg. I think that in the unit will be sufficient, but for the first couple weeks I&#8217;ll double-check this by occasionally checking the temperature of a keg itself.<\/p>\n<p>New photos from tonight&#8217;s work are can be found on <a href=\"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/gallery\/v\/stuffivemade\/kegged_beer_cooler\/?g2_page=2\">this page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>(Yes, I know those screws are too long, but they are what I had laying available.
