    10 Gallon Keg

    The floating dip tube worked well. I'm using it in a 5 gallon corny. Although, in hindsight I'm wondering if all the extras are really needed. Time seems to prove that less is more....simple is better. I use the posts on the 10 gallon kegs. The 10 gallon kegs have only been used as fermenting...

    10 Gallon Keg

    You have good timing - I just bought 2 of those liquid posts from OBK and a floating dip tube from more beer. I have high hopes for the dip tube. The existing hole for the post is a tiny bit bigger than I would like, so I might try and find a bigger gasket for the inside bulkhead. It would...

    10 Gallon Keg

    Be careful - that amazon item doesn't look like it will accommodate a dip tube. That would be fine for the gas side, but not the beverage side.

    @chrisp Most of the rings on the post assembly are pretty simple, so I didn't include info about them here. I only included details on the ones that I had the most challenge with. Here we go...I hope you like pictures. 1182N115 was purchased as a 10-pack from McMasterCarr. These guys are...

    10 Gallon Keg

    I'm happy to report I've had several successful batches fermenting in them! It worked great. I'm currently at work but I'll try and update tomorrow with the rings/parts I've used. I'll try and get some pics too.

    I geek out over gear and options. The floating dip tube appears to be a thing of beauty. Joining this forum was free, however I'm starting to think there will still be financial repercussions. Thanks again.

    10 Gallon Keg

    Thanks for this suggestion - so glad i asked. I really like the idea of soldering the keg post adapters. Looks like I have options. I was also considering replacing the post and dip tube with this guy...

    10 Gallon Keg

    I recently picked up 2 of these exact kegs, Cornelius Model 1896 and was looking for more information about them. I want to replace all the rings and gaskets but am having a hard time finding parts. The posts and beverage dip tube can be completely removed. When they're removed, there's nothing...
