I've had a keg laying around for years that I used to use (drum on) in a band that I was in. After looking at this forum for a while I decided to get a angle grinder and turn it into a keggle.
I didn't have enough wood laying around to make a guide so I just decided to free hand it. Besides this keg is a little beat up from being drummed on but it's still sound.
I used the edge of the lip as a guide for the grinder and I think it came out pretty well. I used a cutoff wheel, then grinding wheel, and finally a flap disk to clean it up. After a hit with the bar keepers friend I think it came out pretty well.
I need to make an IC this week but thanks to this forum I don't think it will be too hard. I'm also getting my kit together to do all grain. I've got 2, 5 gallon Gatorade coolers that I'm going to turn into an HLT and Mash ton. This forum is dangerous for the DIY bug.
This weekend I'll be using the old turkey fryer burner and making the extract Red Ale kit from Midwest. Thanks for all of the ideas, tips, and great information that is stored here. Wish me luck.
