Finally finished our install of our KBPM and it’s working beautifully, if not for a bit of a need for wire management.
We have a 4 tap Kegerator and we were looking at options to add a tap to the Kegbot, but when we went to the store to look for the kegbot coasters, they are no longer listed.
Are the Kegbot coasters no longer available? If not, will they ever be available again? Can we build our own coaster without the pre-stamped board?

Just in case you didn’t know, you can just use a KBPM. It costs a little more, but supports the project + is hassle-free.
Are the Kegbot coasters no longer available?
Not from us, but you can have OSHPark build you a 3-pack of coasters for about $9. It takes about 2 weeks.
(You can use the same technique to tweak the coaster
If not, will they ever be available again?
Nope, the days of us selling bare boards are behind us.
Can we build our own coaster without the pre-stamped board?
Yep, the coaster is just a breakout board; nothing stops you from doing the same thing with a protoboard and a bunch of jumpers. The schematics are available on github.
Thanks! My Brother-In-Law and I are are working on this as a DIY project, so we picked up the KBMP from the kickstarter to get us started, and we’re going to DIY as much of the rest of it as we can.
No problem, have fun!
