One of a kind. 04/09/2024
By Joshua Pinter
I wanted one of these not for fermenting in a keg but for controlling the temperature in my kegerator.

I have a cheap kegerator and it was difficult to dial in the target temperature. It was a 2 tap kegerator that I expanded to a 3 tap and the keg at the rear of the kegerator (closest to the cooling coils) would freeze when trying to cool the rest of the kegerator down.

To fix this, I use a Inkbird temperature controller to control the kegerator and I put one of these thermowell lids in the keg at the rear and put the Inkbird temperature probe into the thermowell. I set the temp to 1°C and it ensures that rear keg is always cold but never freezing.

I typically put my lagers at the rear since they are best at those cold temps. The front 2 kegs are a couple degrees C warmer.

Works perfect. And honestly I couldn't find anything else like this anywhere else so even though it's expensive, it's the only option and better than doing it yourself, if you're not a welder.

Calibrate my analog kegerator 05/31/2022

Right tool for the job.

Was struggling with actual liquid temp of my cheapish kegerator. It only has a analog thermostat setting, from 1 - 5. Additionally the keg at the back had issues with freezing.

So I searched long and hard and the only keg thermowell solution was this.

Expensive, especially with shipping to Canada but absolutely worth it.

Iâ€™ve now setup my Inkbird temp controller to the kegerator and put the temp probe into the thermowell of the keg at the back. This allows me to maintain exact temperature of the liquid of the back keg.

The front two kegs will naturally be warmer so my plan is to keep ales in those ones and lager in the back keg where itâ€™s icy cold.

Of course the main purpose of this is fermenting in a keg. I may do that as well but this is what I used it for.

Bottom line though, if you like exactness, this is a great tool to have in your kit.

Thanks for making this!!

I use this to monitor fermentation temps in my keg. Opens and closes much smoother than my other corny lids. Definitely will buy more!
