That is a slick product. Do you ship to the US?

I am a relative novice compared to most who have chimed in here, but I will throw in. For me, the easiest way to the least objectionable present-use ale is to keg as soon as the green flavors mostly subside (5-7 days for moderate gravity and English yeast), then carb/condition in the keg for a...

One of these fits into this hisense brand 4.4 cut ft fridge (currently on sale at Lowes) without any modification.

I have a gripe: there's no way to attach the duotight flow control ball lock with a directly connected nuka tap mini faucet to this keg. The geometry of angled posts and the cage make it impossible. This is a disappointment--I've been really pleased with serving beer directly from my fermzilla...

That's the right way to do it.

What you need is a buddy with a 3d printer and some technical sense. Know any engineers?

The label is graduated with white numbers, I think. I didn't fool with them because (for now at least) I don't really care exactly how much is in a keg. If I were going to apply the sticker, I would carefully measure two gallons into the keg, level it, mark the top, and index the sticker's 2gal...

I have always been limited in how many cornies will fit in X refrigerator by their diameter, not their height. Ironically, if these were the same volume but just a little taller and thinner, they would fit my fridge much better.

They are not tippy. Empty with a transfer line attached, mine didn't want to tip over at all. I think this is much improved over the smaller ones. But... That broad heavy base holds and releases a little liquid as things move and stretch. I forgot about this until just now. If you dribble...

Here's another positive for the humble keg conditioner: at low carbonation levels, you can get a feel for progress by squeezing.

I kegged a batch last night, after disassembling, soaking, and reassembling everything. Obvious: The hardware on these is common with the other kegland products. There is definitely no scrubbing to clean this thing--the mouth is quite small. It's light as a feather and seems delicate when...

The lid is 2-piece--the handle/cage is snapped into the lid proper. The lid seals with a lip seal, I think. It comes with carb caps and a floating dip tube. The prv is green, for some reason. I think it's 30 or 35 psi, just like the one on the fermzilla (which is red).

It looks like the bottom is hemispherical and the black (nylon?) base is glued on.

I wonder what this conversation would be like if it were happening in a different era. Drunkards will not inherit the kingdom of heaven--this is black and white. But where is the line that separates a drinker from a drunkard? That's a moral question that only exists within a Christian context...

These are on sale at Morebeer for $28, I think. I could not stand it. Review to follow....
