Find the Perfect Appliance for your Favorite Beverage

Whether you love to entertain or are just trying to manage a busy household, wine coolers, beverage centers, and kegerators are a stylish, convenient way to keep your favorite refreshments perfectly chilled and ready to serve. With a variety of sizes and configurations to choose from, there’s a model perfectly suited for your needs, and their compact design means you can install these appliances where they’ll be most useful.

Wine Refrigeration: Protect Your Investment

As every enthusiast knows, wines are sensitive. They are fragile enough to require custom, quiet, dark storage so that they don’t get jostled by vibrations that could damage their flavor. A wine collection needs a consistent, low-temperature, high-humidity space, but not every home needs a vineyard cellar in the basement. If you’re growing your wine collection and want a little more space, consider creating your own wine cellar in your kitchen or den with a wine cooler.

Available as freestanding coolers that can go virtually anywhere, or built-in models that work with your existing cabinetry, the options are fully customizable to your preference.

For your convenience, you can choose between single or multiple cooling zones to accommodate red and white wines in the same space. Wine and beverage coolers can be utilized for more than storing alcohol, so you control the temperature, whether it’s for aging wine or just keeping sodas crisp and cool.

You can even choose from smaller coolers that hold up to 29 bottles, to larger, more high-end wine refrigeration systems that can store 130 bottles or more.

These versatile beverage coolers come in your choice of sizes and colors, with glass doors to display your collection and specialized construction that minimizes vibration, sounds, and light to protect your wines. The most important features are those that fit your exact specifications, and this is where you’ll find them.

Remember, once you have your wine refrigeration choices made, look around to update the rest of your home!

Beverage Refrigeration: Cold Drinks on Hand

Nothing is better than winding down at the end of the day and having a nice cold drink to sit down and relax with, but digging through a crowded refrigerator to find your favorite beer or soft drink can be anything but relaxing. A dedicated stylish space to store your drinks is exactly what is in order, and with a variety of compact installation options, you can grab a cold one from just about anywhere in your home.

Built-in, undercounter models are vented out the front so they can be placed between cabinets, making them a great choice for kitchen islands, game rooms, theatre rooms, home bars, and dining room buffet centers. They come in a variety of widths so they can be retrofitted into your existing cabinetry footprint. For a seamless, custom appearance, consider a panel-ready appliance. These models are designed to accept a front panel to match the surrounding cabinetry.

Freestanding units are typically the more affordable option and can be placed anywhere there’s an outlet and clearance for proper ventilation. They’re a good choice for homeowners who don’t want to alter existing cabinetry.

Some beverage centers are rated for outdoor use, so you can serve refreshments while entertaining in your barbeque area, outdoor kitchen, gazebo, or out on the deck without having to run inside the house to fetch drinks.

Beverage centers are available in a variety of configurations to meet your specific needs. The largest models can hold more than a hundred cans and most have adjustable shelves so they can also accommodate beer bottles, sports drinks, and bottled water. Combination wine-and-beverage coolers have individually adjustable temperature zones to keep each type of refreshment perfectly chilled.

Kegerators: Keep A Keg On-Tap

It’s easier than you think to pour your preferred beverage right at home. The answer is a kegerator: a refrigerator for a keg, with the added bonus of also dispensing the contents it keeps cool. You can set up a kegerator in your home kitchen, den, or office, even the back patio. Indoors or outdoors, a kegerator can be large enough to hold a 15.5 gallon, or a half barrel-sized keg while taking up the same amount of space as a small refrigerator. Built-in kegerator models are designed to be integrated into existing base cabinets while freestanding units can be equipped with wheels to make them more mobile.

You have your choice of configurations with most kegerators. They are available in single, double, or triple taps, which means that they can store and dispense from up to three different kegs. For instance, with the popular dual tap kegerator, you can serve up two beverages from one cooler at the same time, such as providing one dispenser for beer and one for coffee.

Kegerators are most commonly used to hold draught beer, but you aren’t limited in what you want to serve up in your home. The pressurized kegs can also dispense coffee, tea such as kombucha, or even wine. The different dispense gases can distort the taste for some palates, so keep in mind what kind of drinks you want on tap when you’re choosing a kegerator to be sure you have the best configuration for your expectations. CO2 regulators are more common with a draught beer keg because the same carbonation naturally occurs in the fermentation process of beer. However, because it doesn’t add carbonation to the beverages, a nitrogen regulator works best with coffee, wine, or Kombucha to preserve their unique flavors.
