== Drawings and Dimensions ==
Some freezer dimensions and CAD drawings with keg combinations [http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/chest-freezer-specs-layouts-377518/ at this thread]. Two of the pictured freezers stick out, since they can carry two Sanke-kegs, and are only 25" deep.

The freezer is not very tall and hence will need a collar to fit the tappers..
* Homedepot has them for $379 at [http://www.homedepot.com/p/t/202677394?cm_mmc=SEM|THD|D29A&mid=sh2yZsR04|dc_mtid_8903tb925190_pcrid_32725531422_pkw_dcfm289wdd_pmt_e&gclid=CIOujPDzl74CFQVsfgodtYkA0A this page],
* Best Buy for $349 at [http://www.bestbuy.com/site/danby-designer-10-2-cu-ft-chest-freezer/1714902.p?id=1219063146792 this page]
The HBT thread for a keezer build based on this freezer is [http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/danby-10-2-dcfm289wdd-keezer-build-thread-256505/ at this link].

== Parts and Pieces ==
* [[Image:Partslist01.png]]
* Use forward sealing beer taps ( [http://www.perlick.com/bar-beverage-equipment/beverage-dispensing/tapping-hardwarecomponents/beer-faucets/ like these] ) to avoid dried beer sticking and gumming the seals (leading to dripping faucets)
** faucets replaced by Perlicks [http://www.amazon.com/Perlick-630SS-Stainless-Steel-Faucet/dp/B00IZOQ76O/ref=pd_tcs_subst_k_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1PT6ST8F6G0DWX7X99R4 (amazon)]
* Temperature controller Johnson A419, like [http://www.amazon.com/Johnson-Controls-A419ABC-1C-Electronic-Controller/dp/B0026NDC5O this one] or even better, [http://www.amazon.com/AGPtek-All-purpose-Temperature-Controller-STC-1000/dp/B00862G3TQ this one]
* use two 5 pound gas bottles instead of 1 big one - if bottle runs out, other one takes over, smaller foot print
* Flow sensor [http://www.seeedstudio.com/wiki/index.php?title=G1/2_Water_Flow_sensor build instructions] and [http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/g12-water-flow-sensor-p-635.html?cPath=84_87&zenid=0dfaf037192e49ad17ec3398429fdff2 ordering form], or even better, [http://www.ebay.com/itm/swiss-flow-meters-Low-pressure-/121111223550?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c32ca%209cfe&quantity=1&autorefresh=true#payCntId food grade flow meters] on ebay, rumor on the HBT forum has it that the seller accepts $20 per item.
* Quick changers? See [http://www.keystonehomebrew.com/shop/1-4in-mfl-tailpiece.html here]...
* RaspberryPint instructions at [http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/initial-release-raspberrypints-digital-taplist-solution-456809/ this thread]

* Parts of this will have to be remoted, but display is still on Amazon FiretV in back yard. Check [http://docs.aws.amazon.com/silk/latest/developerguide/introduction.html Silk] as the browser to use, it is based on Chromium (which is used in Raspberry Pint)
** Firefox can be installed, .apk in Download
** on FTV, firefox downloads files into sdcard/Android/data/org.mozilla.firefox/files/Download/



* Add shut-off valve logic
** All kegs shutdown at night and in the morning
** Add bluetooth receiver or the mobilinc location status to enable beer lines
** If more than 2 liters are poured at once, shut down that line (someone/something left it open?)
** Shut down if a 'keg kicked' signal is received (to save CO2)
