Oh, it does add up. I probably spent about $1K getting my 5 keg setup up and running. If you go for el-cheapo used kegs from the local supply shop, they're "only" $60 each, and then there's the 20# CO2 cylinder, and all of the hoses and manifolds and everything. Oh, and nice Perlick taps? I'd much rather talk about how happy I am with my kegging setup than what I spent on it, haha.
