Adding a collar to my chest freezer based kegerator/keezer was a huge upgrade. It allowed me to switch from messy/drippy picnic taps to forward sealing faucets and a drip tray. It looks great and it works great. Beyond that, I don’t have to deal with sticky tubing and cobra style taps.
The downside of doing this is… I can no longer easily reach the bottom of the chest freezer. I just cannot get down there. Short of actually trying to get inside (which would not be pretty) or removing the collar, this is a spot that’s hard to clean.
Mops to the rescue! I use a mop to periodically clean and sanitizer the floor of my collar-equipped keezer. It makes quick work of the job. I did purchase a new mop to dedicated to this use.
