I'm interested in some feedback on how long a keg of homebrew will last at a party. Please post from experience.
Depends on a lot of things, how many people, for one thing?
Good question. At least a dozen. I mean, how many times have you taken 5 gallons to a party with only 4 people. I would, if they were all beer drinkers like me and that was the only drink, but for general purposes, think of a real party with at least 12+ people.
I took a keg to Jersey a couple of weeks back and no one showed up......brought back 1/2 keg.
My friend Dan came out to IL to visit last summer...we killed 4 kegs in 5 days just the two of us...:rockin:
Apologies for the thread-jack (and resurrection of an old thread) but how to you guys deal with keg sediment when moving kegs? I always find that when I move my kegs around it takes quite a while for the sediment to settle out again. Its cloudy beer until then. Do you all have the same experience? I usually primary for 1 month then transfer to keg and cold crash.
12 people 2 beers an hour average 24 beers an hour 5 gallons about 2 hours more or less.
I made 15 gallons for a wedding a couple months back and they were killed in about an hour and a half. It depends on size of crowd and having good drinkers.
