30cm Stainless Steel Wrap Around Drip Tray is a practical and attractive upgrade for replacing the plastic drip tray supplied with many standard kegerators. Its curved cut-out allows the tray to wrap around the base of the beer font, helping it sit closer to the tap outlets and catch drips, foam and small spills more effectively.
Made from high-quality stainless steel, this tray offers a cleaner and more professional appearance than many plastic alternatives. It is suitable for home bars, kegerators, keezer builds and other compact draught systems where the tap font is mounted directly above the serving surface.
Wrap-Around Font Design
The wrap-around shape is designed to sit around the base of a standard kegerator font.
This provides several practical benefits:
- Positions the tray closer to the taps
- Helps catch drips from multiple faucets
- Reduces empty space between the font and tray
- Creates a neat, integrated appearance
- Helps protect the kegerator surface
- Makes better use of limited serving space
The cut-out is designed to suit many common font styles, although exact compatibility should always be checked before purchase.
Stainless Steel Construction
The 30cm Stainless Steel Wrap Around Drip Tray is manufactured from durable stainless steel for long-term use around beer, cider and other kegged beverages.
Stainless steel is well suited to draught systems because it is:
- Resistant to moisture
- Easy to clean
- Less likely to absorb odours
- Durable under regular glass contact
- Attractive beside stainless fonts and taps
- Suitable for repeated home bar use
It also provides a more professional appearance than a standard plastic tray.
Product Dimensions
Approximate dimensions are:
- Width: 30.5cm
- Front-to-back depth: 17.7cm
- Tray depth: 2cm
- Font cut-out diameter: approximately 11–12cm
The supplied measurements list the cut-out as both 11cm and 12cm. Therefore, measure the font base before ordering and allow for normal manufacturing tolerances.
Suitable for Standard Kegerator Fonts
The central cut-out is designed to fit around many standard kegerator font bases.
It may suit:
- Single tap towers
- Double tap towers
- Triple tap towers
- Standard round beer fonts
- Compatible home kegerators
- Custom bench-mounted draught systems
Compatibility depends on the outside diameter of the font base, mounting hardware and the available flat surface.
Upgrade from a Plastic Drip Tray
Many kegerators are supplied with a basic plastic drip tray. Replacing it with stainless steel can improve both durability and appearance.
Benefits of upgrading may include:
- Stronger construction
- Improved moisture resistance
- Easier cleaning
- Better visual match with stainless equipment
- Reduced staining
- Longer service life
- More professional presentation
The tray can provide a simple cosmetic and practical improvement without replacing the entire font or dispensing system.
Catches Drips and Foam
Even a properly balanced draught system can release a small amount of liquid after the tap closes.
A drip tray helps collect:
- Beer drips
- Foam overflow
- Cider spills
- Water from rinsed glasses
- Condensation
- Minor pouring mistakes
This keeps the surrounding kegerator or benchtop cleaner and reduces the need to wipe the serving area after every pour.
Suitable for Different Beverages
The tray can be used beneath taps serving:
- Beer
- Cider
- Ginger beer
- Sparkling water
- Soft drinks
- Hard seltzer
- Kombucha
- Other compatible kegged beverages
Sweet or sticky drinks should be cleaned from the tray promptly to prevent residue and odours.
Dishwasher Safe
The stainless steel construction makes the tray suitable for dishwasher cleaning where the size and dishwasher configuration allow.
Before placing it in a dishwasher:
- Remove loose residue
- Check that it fits safely
- Position it so it cannot move
- Use a suitable wash cycle
- Dry it thoroughly afterward
Hand washing with warm water and mild detergent is also suitable.
General Cleaning
Clean the tray regularly to maintain hygiene and appearance.
A simple cleaning routine includes:
- Remove the tray from the kegerator.
- Empty any collected liquid.
- Wash it with warm water and detergent.
- Use a soft sponge or cloth.
- Rinse thoroughly.
- Dry before replacing it.
- Wipe the surrounding kegerator surface.
Do not leave beer, cider or sugary liquid sitting in the tray for extended periods.
Stainless Steel Care
To protect the finish:
- Avoid steel wool
- Avoid harsh abrasive pads
- Use stainless-safe cleaning products
- Rinse away cleaner residue
- Dry after washing
- Wipe in the direction of the finish where possible
Minor water marks can usually be removed with a soft cloth and suitable stainless steel cleaner.
Optional Drain Conversion
The tray may be modified to add a drain connection for a more permanent installation.
A typical conversion may involve drilling a suitable hole and fitting compatible threaded hardware beneath the tray.
Any modification should be completed carefully using the correct tools and fittings.
Consider:
- Drain position
- Thread size
- Sealing method
- Hose routing
- Container or waste connection
- Clearance below the tray
Modifying the tray may affect warranty coverage, so check before drilling.
Counter-Top and Kegerator Use
This tray can be used on:
- Kegerator tops
- Home bar counters
- Benchtops
- Keezer lids
- Portable dispensing benches
- Custom beverage stations
Place it on a level surface and make sure the cut-out sits neatly around the font base.
Checking Compatibility
Before purchasing:
- Measure the outside diameter of the font base.
- Check the available surface area.
- Measure the distance between the tap outlets and tray position.
- Confirm that the tray will not interfere with mounting screws.
- Check that glasses will sit comfortably beneath the taps.
Because font designs vary, measurements should be confirmed rather than relying only on the “standard font” description.
Important Notes
- Dimensions are approximately 17.7cm x 30.5cm x 2cm deep.
