Build a Remote Controlled Beer Keg

29 Sep 2010

Beer kegs have been around since the 60’s but the technology really hasn’t changed all that much. Well, we figured it’s about time. We put one up on motorized wheels and installed remote control tapping giving you full control over where it goes and how much it pours.

Ummm how does it stay cold?

If there’s no ice or refrigeration you’re gonna need to hook it up cold and just leave it pouring continuously so what’s the point of being able to control the flow anyway?

@airpowers83 like i said, 60 psi is the blow off valve pressure, kegs use around 12 psi

It looks like a long and expensive project to serve warm beer.

After viewing again and seeing the IFI speed controllers and the BEC the price for this project is closer to $800.00 US dollars.
