I usually hate threads where people post up that, "I just ordered blah blah blaj" or "guess what the UPS man brought me", but anyway...
So I'm sitting there on tuesday evening, editing my dissertation (mostly watching TV) and a guy comes up to my window and asks if I am the guy that homebrews. He is the son of a guy who owns a place near mine, and says he used to homebrew but gave up b.c of kids and responsibility (quitter!). In any case, he says he has a couple boxes of stuff in his truck and would I like any of it....SURE.
Go out there...and I get
-A refrigerator temperature controller
-box full of tap handles, faucets, tubing, quick connects for pin-lock kegs, a CO2 regulator, and assorted other small parts (including a 3-4 ft long spoon...nice)
-janky old wort chiller I will probably toss
oh, and the best part, he says he used to keg his brews in corny kegs and he thinks he still has a bunch in his basement, I say, hey, if you don't want them just bring them by any time.
Come home yesterday from a run....5 pin lock cornys sitting on my porch!!!! SCORE
Now I just need a CO2 tank, mini fridge, and some new tubing and I am golden...
Will oxyclean work to clean out kegs that have been sitting closed for 5+ years? They are pretty gross.
