Under the hood

Real keg specs. Real clearances.

Keg dimensions match Brewers Association published US keg standards. Pour math uses 128 fl oz / gal ÷ 12 oz pours.

  1. 01

    Interior height

    Keg height + ~10 inches for tap shank, gas line, and lid clearance.

  2. 02

    Width and depth

    Width = keg diameter × number of kegs + spacing. Depth = keg diameter + CO₂ tank depth + 4 inches.

  3. 03

    Pour count

    Gallons × number of kegs × 10.67 (12 oz pours per gallon). Subtract pour wastage for usable count.
