Converting a freezer into a Kegerator to dispense Draft Beer is quite simple. However most freezers, even when set on the warmest setting, will maintain a temperature below the recommended temperatures for draft beers.
Most breweries recommend a 36-38°F temperature range for their Ale & Lager type beers, and a 41-42°F temperature range for their stout beers get the best flavor attributes from their products. Temperatures below 36°F will cause CO2 to become trapped in the beer resulting in off taste and a flat looking beer which will only begin to release carbonation when it warms above 38°F.

A hydrometer is used to track the fermentation progress by measuring the conversion of sugar to ethanol by the yeast which is known as attenuation. A hydrometer, as far as the brewer is concerned, determines the amount of alcohol content in a liquid by measuring the specific gravity or difference in gravity (density) between pure water and water with sugar dissolved in it. Density is the weight of an object divided by the volume it occupies. |
