Homebrew Kegerator & Tap Handles
I thought I would post some pics of my tap handles that I made for my homebrew kegerator.
I try to always have an IPA/Hoppy beer and a Stout/dark beer on tap at all times. So I took some used WhiteLabs yeast vials and put Whole leaf hops in one and Black Patent Malt in the other. I think they turned out pretty good. Here is also a pic of my kegerator that I built. It was an easy build and looks nice enough that the wife even lets me keep it in the kitchen.

I like it a lot but how long before the hops start to go bad?

They have been in there for two months and still look fresh.
I have several ounces of whole hops, so if they start to discolor and look bad, I will just replace them.

You can buy threaded inserts from the hardware store and put them in almost anything to turn into a tap handle. I wanted some cool tap handles but didnt want to spend the money buying some expensive ones. I have a drawer full of empty yeast vials and just started thinking what I could do with them.
