Hey Ajwillys. Basically, I ran it a few times and opened it and visually inspected before I decided I'd rely on it. The liquid drains slower than the pump will fill so you end up with a hot shower at the top of the keg and a hot soak at the bottom. I've found its most effective with 5g sankes but will work for 15.5g as well. Like I said, even though its been working well for me, I take the spear out and inspect and clean manually too. Really, the easiest way would be to rinse the keg and fill it with PBW and let it sit, but that takes a lot of time.

Whatever you do don't get a kegman kit retainer ring. The one I got off of ebay was painted steel, doesn't appear to be SS because it is already rusting in a couple spots that the paint has already chipped off. I think I'm going to go back to using the normal retaining rings, but I destroyed the original one that was in my sankey so I'll have to order some from somewhere or try to find a SS snap ring.
