Kegco's HBK309B-1NK Homebrew Kegerator adds digital functionality and a wider available temperature range to one of the best kegerators you can find. Your favorite features from our other high-quality Kegco Draft Beer Dispensers are still included, such as attractive styling, a removable and easy to clean built-in drip tray, a chrome guard rail to prevent your glasses from sliding off the top, and easy rolling casters that allow you to move the unit from room to room with ease. Now, in addition to having a wider available temperature range for more precise temperature control, you also have the ability to view your specific temperature setting and easily set it with the push of a button.
Digital Temperature Control
Your control over your home brew beer doesn't end once your beer has been kegged! The HBK309B-1NK features digital functionality and a wider available temperature range to give your more precise control over your beer keg's temperature. This kegerator's temperature is adjusted using intuitive up and down buttons instead of a manual dial, and you can easily view the temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius on the clear LED display.
Wide Enough Temperature Range to Dispense or Ferment
Kegco's HBK309 Series of homebrew kegerators utilize fan forced cooling to provide even cooling throughout the unit. They feature one of the coldest temperature ranges of any keg refrigerator on the market - as low as 32 degrees! You can also set the temperature high enough to ferment your homebrew in the kegerator, allowing you to precisely control the fermentation environment.
Large Interior
This home-brew keg cooler features a spacious interior that can easily hold up to three 5-gallon Cornelius ball lock home brew kegs, so you can keep multiple kegs stored at their ideal temperature and ready to dispense. It can also hold a 6 gallon bucket or carboy during fermentation.
Deep Chill Function
No more waiting overnight to enjoy a refreshingly cold glass of home brewed beer! The HBK309B-1NK features a Deep Chill function that quickly cools a warm keg in a matter of hours, so it can be ready for an afternoon barbecue or dinner party. Simply press the button, and the compressor continuously for up to 24 hours to get your keg to the desired temperature. Press the button again, and your kegerator returns to its normal operation.
Converts to a Refrigerator with 2 Shelves
When you've run out of home-brewed beer to dispense, or whenever you need some additional refrigerated storage for a party or special event, this versatile kegerator can be easily converted into an all-refrigerator to hold your food and beverages. It comes with two adjustable shelves that can be spaced far enough apart to hold gallon jugs or 2-liter bottles, and it can even be used to store wine thanks to the wide temperature range.
Locking Casters Provide Mobility
The HBK309B-1 includes easy-roll casters that make it easy to enjoy your home-brew beer in any room of your home! Once the keg dispenser is in position, these casters can be easily locked so that your kegerator won't move again until you want it to.
This homebrew beer keg dispenser comes with a Kegco Exclusive 14" tall single tap draft tower, one faucet with faucet knob, and 5 feet of 3/16" I.D. clear beer tubing. Choose from the optional add-ons below to customize a homebrew dispense system setup that's just right for you.

BIG! COLD! BradThis was a big purchase for me. Once I knew I was actually buying a fridge (as opposed to converting one) I decided to go ahead and get one that could fit multiple kegs with two faucets. Might as well right! Currently I have a slim quarter and a sixth installed with a little room to spare. I think I could fit 2 slim quarters as the inside of the door is recessed a little. From the outside it is about the size of a dishwasher.
It will take a few days to cool down completely, but then the ambient tempature inside will match the display. I keep it on 33°F with no problems. You can use deep chill for the first few hours when you first put a keg in. Also, you will be fiddling with the regulator some and opening the door alot makes it harder to get cool.
I installed this unit under my workbench in the garage and mounted the tower to my workbench surface. I used a 6" piece of 2" PVC as a spacer and used and upside down shower drain as a flange to attach to the fridge. Multiple lengths of screws are included. I also had just enough room to put foam insulation down inside the PVC around the beer lines. The tower includes nice rubber insulation as well.
Finally, I find it much easier to pour into a pitcher as opposed to straight into a pint glass. There will be a little foam as the beer in the lines in the tower will warm up just a little. It's not enough to tell a temperature difference, just enough to make some foam. I find it's best to "burp" the faucet twice (open/close quickly), then let it run into the pitcher. From there you can make a perfect pour into your frosty pint glass.
Here are my recommended upgrades:
Worm gear hose clamps on CO2 lines (auto parts store)
Dual gauge regulator with dual shutoff valves
Standard 'D' system sankey couplers
Stainless steel tower
Perlick 525SS faucets
Pressurized cleaning kit
Stainless steel drip tray

Love this Kegerator C. JohnsonI recently purchased this kegerator, I am thrilled with it! Easy to set up and pouring cold beer. I like my beer REALLY cold, this unit has an additional fan and digital display for accurate temperature. I am glad I was able to purchase a great unit with out having to spend a ton of money. I upgraded the regulator to a double gauge, I am not that close to an air and gas place, I would hate to run out.
This is an indication that your units compressor is getting too cold then warning up creating the full tray. I would suggest you empty out the tray and try to determinant how often the tray is filling up. Are there extreme weather issues happening lately in your area that could be effecting the unit? If you would like to give us a call and chat with our technical department or customer service we're available from 7-4 PST Monday-Friday.
Yes you can use it to dispense cider, i would look into seeing what PSI pressure Cider is dispensed at before doing so. I hope this helped and thank you for your question.
Thank you,

Great Value! Highly Recommended- Used in home bar
- Unit: (Pros)
- Overall: This unit is a great value. It's intended as a refrigerator type system, and it delivers on its purpose. It looks great, well designed, great fit and finish and stays at a constant temperature.
- Components: The additional components are of great quality. The lines, tower, couplers, regulator and CO2 tank are all top notch. We like the CO2 tank so much that we requested it be filled instead of replaced at our local welding facility.
- Assembly: We had this unit up and running in about 30 minutes after we filled the CO2 tank and bought the beer. The instructions were very easy to follow.
- Controls: The digital controls on the front of the unit are easily managed and readable. We are very glad that we decided on this feature.
- Performance: This thing consistently pours flawlessly. Once we dialed in the correct pressure with the chosen upgraded regulator (very nice!), we have been very pleased with the pints that we pour.
- Unit: (Cons)
- Drip Tray: The accompanied drip tray is a two-piece plastic unit that functions fine. We would love to have the option for a metal drip tray to be as nice as the rest of the unit.
- CO2 Tank Holder: The clip for the CO2 tank is a "Horseshoe" shaped metal band with small holes on each flared end. This design would be fine if there was a provided way to hold the flared ends somewhat together. My wife and I are using a simple nylon cord with a locking slide. (Think camping chair bag closure)
- Beverage Factory: (Pros)
- Overall: This has been one of the best buying experiences that my wife and I have ever had online or over the phone. Our representative was very knowledgeable. The majorly impressive thing was that when she was stumped by one of our questions, she took the initiative and called us back with an answer that day! From start to finish, Beverage Factory listened to our wants and needs, educated us on the best products and components and has followed up after the sale to make sure everything went smoothly.
- Beverage Factory: (Cons)
- Overall: None to report - this was an awesome experience!!!!
- Recommendation: If you are looking for a double tap unit that works for your home bar, kitchen, man cave or game room, the Kegco K309B-2 ROCKS!!!!! We would recommend upgrading the regulator to the pro unit and the tower/faucets to stainless steel. You will be happy that you did. All-in-all, we are very pleased and will be doing more business with Beverage Factory in the near future.
