Cool. That's a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll! How's it working out?

Does the cost of rigging that compare with picking up a used Corny, or was the purpose more for fun?

So, why not homebrew your equipment as well as your beer? But I think I would put a pressure relief valve on a home made keg. It is a glass bomb without one. AAand hydro test it- fill to top with water, then add air pressure. If it fails, it will shatter, but not explode. later, as the beer level drops, you have the potential to explode. I think I will stick with my stainless steel pressure cooker for home experimentation....

Well, It works just fine. It didn't cost much for parts. I'd have to buy a tap regardless what keg I was using so the parts were really under $10 Canadain. (line with tap was another $12) We already had a few of these lying around since the place we get bottled water uses these, so I snagged one for use. Since it just the Cap of the bottle I've modified I can still return the empty botlle for the deposit when ever I want.
It's a 5 gallon plastic water bottle that has a threaded top. I drilled two holes in the cap and added the fittings. I test pressure with a tire gauge. If it's to high then release some pressure. If you need to add more then you can use a co2 tire inflater, whcih is exactly what a lot of people use with those other plastc kegs or 5L party kegs. Since you don't need to purchase a regulator, CO2 bottle etc it's fairly cheap. It's good is you have you'd like 1 or 2 batches in kegs. Cornys are more convenient but the platic keg is good if you don't yet want to drop the coin to purchase a corny setup. Besides. It's a fun thing to build if you are bored!
