Kegerator making odd noise
«

I have a bar fridge (with a horizontal collar), a couple of taps on a passively cooled tower from a copper coil resting on the freezer and going up in the tower (see my avatar). I notice tonight it is making a cracking or loud tapping noise, once per 15 minutes or so. I am guessing I'm just overdue to defrost it, but has anyone experienced this before?

Do you hear the noise at the start or end of the compressor cycle?

It seems to be independent of the compressor cycle.

Also, the timing is now completely random. Two cracking noises in succession, then nothing, then one, then nothing, in a random order
