Kegco's stylish high-quality HBK309X-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.
The Kegco HBK309X-1NK has been designed with a matte black cabinet and a sleek black stainless steel door for a modern look that complements any decor. Black stainless steel is a unique black-graphite tone that resists more smudges, fingerprints, water spots, and streaks than standard stainless steel. Most stainless steel surfaces do not have a fingerprint-resistant finish and will need special polish to keep them looking new. With black stainless steel, cleaning is easy without any special polish requirements - simply clean with a damp cloth followed by a soft towel.
Digital Temperature Control
HBK309 series kegerators have blue LED digital displays that show an accurate reading of your kegerator's internal temperature, and the temperature can be easily set using the push button controls. You no longer have to guess what temperature a number on a dial will produce - simply press the up or down button, and the temperature is adjusted by one degree. The display can be set to either Fahrenheit or Celsius. The HBK309's temperature can range as low as 32°F or as high as 75°F.
Wide Enough Temperature Range to Dispense or Ferment
Fan-forced cooling gives these HBK309 home-brew kegerators one of the coldest temperature ranges of any keg beer dispenser on the market today, allowing it to be set as low as 32 degrees. The fan helps provide even, consistent cooling throughout the cabinet. The wide temperature range also makes it possible for you to ferment your home-brew inside the kegerator, giving you a precisely controlled fermentation environment.
Large Interior
The spacious interior of these HBK309 kegerators easily accommodates up to three 5 gallon Cornelius ball lock home brew kegs, allowing you to dispense one keg of home-brew beer while storing two more at their ideal temperature. The HBK309 can also hold a 6 gallon bucket or carboy if you'll be using it as a fermentation chamber.
Deep Chill Function
Thanks to the HBK309's Deep Chill function, you no longer have to wait overnight for a warm beer keg to reach the correct serving temperature. A simple push of the Deep Chill button, and your compressor will work continuously for up to 24 hours to cool down your keg. Once the keg has reached the desired temperature, simply press the Deep Chill button again to return the unit back to its normal operation.
Converts to a Refrigerator with 2 Shelves
This HBK309 series kegerator can easily be converted into a refrigerator when you want it too. It includes two adjustable shelves to help provide extra storage for food and beverages, and the shelves can be spaced far enough apart to hold 2-liter bottles or gallon jugs. The wide temperature range makes it a great option for storing bottles of wine as well.
Locking Casters Provide Mobility
From the kitchen to the game room to the patio, easy-rolling casters allow you to enjoy your home-brewed beer in any room of your home! They can be locked into position so that the 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.

Dual Faucet Kegerator XlimeyCompared to my previous DIY single tap Kegerator this one is of commercial build quality. The two Corny kegs that came with it are brand new ball locks, hard to find other than as reconditioned. The digital controls are unique as is the ability to reach 34F and this one has an auto defrost feature unavailable to DIY upgrading a mini fridge with an external temp. controller..
The only thing missing is that the digital display only shows the chosen preset temp but doesnt show the actual internal temp. Such an easy upgrade for the factory with an extra switch position. Adding another temp sensor after market would mean risking an air leak by bringing in the sensor cable. Doable as DIY but risky.

Well thought out and easy to set up SteveVery nice. I was impressed with the design and ease of set up. The tower attachment was solid and easy to install. I liked the removable plug for conversion back to a fridge. The digital display was a plus. The temp seems to be accurate.The regulator has issues with leaky CO2 valves, which is why I gave it a 4 star.
Just what I expected and much nicer than hacking up a fridge to make a kegerator.

won't disappoint SubdudeBeverage Factory was easy to work with, communicated quite well, and ensured I was pleased with the product. My first unit had a strange "knocking" noise emanating from it although it worked fine. BF shipped me a new unit immediately and picked up the old unit. The kegerator itself works great, the digital controls are a nice feature, although I would prefer that it displayed actual temp in the unit rather than just the set point temp. After reading someone else's review I added a tower cooler that is great. I would have liked to have seen the tower cooler on the option list when purchasing the kegerator in the first place. I would recommend stepping up to the Perlick faucets and the premium gauges. You will not be disappointed!

Digital Controller Not Very Smart WilliamThis is a great looking dual faucet kegerator. The unit arrived well packaged and included some great free upgrades. The instructions were not of much help but I didn't have any issues assembling the unit.
The main reason I chose this particular model was that it was digitally controlled and included an internal fan. However the capabilities of Kegco's digital controller are just woeful. I have built my own kegerator before where the digital control I used maintained the temperature within 2 degrees, retained all of my settings after a power outage and gave me a real time read out of the actual internal temperature.
Kegco's digital controller falls short on on those features:
1. The unit will not retain the last temperature and unit settings upon a power outage. It reverts back to 5c even though I had set it to 38F.
2. The fan should run continuously to prevent cold stratification. In this design, the digital controller controls this and it shuts off when the compressor shuts off.
3. The internal temperature swings from my preset of 38F down to 30F (Too much overshoot by the controller or because the fan is off?)
4: The digital display has no capability of displaying the actual kegerator temperature.
My recommendation is to save $90 and buy the kegerator with the manual thermostat and add your own digital control.
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,
