Homebrewing and Pinterest. At first glance you might not
think these two have much in common and most of the time you would be right. At
the heart of both of these is simple solution to problems and after fully
stocking the kegerator an interesting problem presented itself. One of Rachel’s
friends was getting married and several people would be staying with us. The
problem I saw was, how was everyone going to tell which beer was which? Luckily
Rachel had a very good solution thanks to the popular website Pinterest,
magnetic chalkboards. The idea seemed simple enough, spray paint some
chalkboard paint on some store bought boards, glue on magnets and boom,
magnetic chalkboards. All the supplies were bought from Wal-Mart for about 10
bucks.
Spray painting was a breeze. Applied two coats and called it
good enough. The magnets were a breeze too.
Once the boards were done it was time for my “art skills” to
shine through
The finished product.
Now that all the taps were installed and identified it was
apparent that one last thing was missing. A new drip pan to finish it out (for
now) and make it look professional. That was too much work for this day so,
till then, Prost!
