Hey everyone!
Well I've gone deeper into homebrewing and now it's time for kegging. I already have a CO2 cylinder, so I need a keg, regulator, bottle filler, and whatever other accessories necessary.
I'm assuming it doesn't matter if the keg is full to be able to carbonate the beer, right? You'll just waste more CO2. The reason I ask is that right now I'm only interested in doing 2.5 gallon batches and I don't think I'll get to 5 gallons for a while, but I'm not sure if I should get the 5 gallon keg.
I would like to buy this http://morebeer.com/products/cornelius-keg-25-gallon.html, but this one is reconditioned and cheaper http://morebeer.com/products/cornelius-keg-gaskets-replaced-ball-lock.html.
Also, the 2.5 gallon keg fits in my refrigerator, but the 5 gallon keg doesn't.
Based on what I've told you, do you think I should go for the new 2.5 gallon keg, or the used 5 gallon keg for cheaper?
