Our walk in/serving cooler went out today and won't be back up and running until Tuesday. We have 4-4bbl tanks stacked two high and a single 8bbl tank along with about 8 kegs in the roughly 12x12x12 room.
I'm trying to figure out what to do for the 4-5days to maintain the beer. Worst case scenario I could move the kegs to the storage cooler, but the tanked beer would still be stuck in the cooler and I don't have nearly enough kegs to keg it all off. I am hoping the thermal mass of the beer will maintain the cool temperature in the room for at least a couple days. Our first plan was to put bags of ice on top of the kegs. This doesn't seem like a great plan though. I've also been considering getting a portable air conditioner but wasn't sure if that would be able to cool as much as we would need.
...that's all I've got. I sure wish the cooler was connected to the outside and I could just open a window or vent :/
Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!
