For Sale: set of 4 ball lock kegs

Set of 4 ball lock kegs for sale. They have fresh food safe blue "O" rings. They could use a little cleaning. entertaining offers.

Those are with out a doubt the ugliest kegs I have ever seen. I can't even imagine the amount of chemicals that have been disbursed through them. This post should be removed

WTF??? what was in those bad boys? looks like a home brewers nightmare!

I'll pass on the pesticide tanks.

I read some of your previous posts and you seem like a reasonable guy and not a troll. At least you posted pictures so someone could see what the kegs looked like. And for that I commend you...I want to understand though..... would you use any of these kegs for your own homebrew? If not why would you post these for sale on a homebrew forum?

Ill pay 10.00 ea shipped...

You can't be serious, anyone would be a fool to put something food related in there.

but they have fresh food safe blue orings. I had to chuckle when i re-read that, oh and that they need a little cleaning

I love the warning label on the first one!

LMAO -- Thanks for the late night chuckle NB. The "fresh food safe blue "O" rings," was a nice touch.

This is hysterical and for those that say "this should be removed" and " why would you put these for sale." get a sense of humor and learn how to laugh. Obviously nobody would buy these for homebrew.

If those were pin locks, id take them.

I hope no one is actually going to buy these...

But seriously, what were these used for? Motor oil? Or pesticides as someone else suggested? Definitely not safe to drink from.

I wonder if this is how they arrive to the homebrewing online vendors before they clean them up and resell them. Scary to think.

5 dollars including shipping.

Ill give you 10 bucks...to shoot these

I dont understand why these wouldn't be safe if cleaned properly?

I mean, stainless is inert, right? I would assume that if you replaced all non metallic parts on the inside, probably a new pressure release valve (probably just a new lid), and cleaned them really well these would be fine.

Are they worth a little money + shipping? Not unless your time is virtually worthless, but if I found them in a junk yard, I might try to make them useable again.

Only in Nebraska!

This. My offer of 10.00 each was genuine and still stands

Looks like they used them for asphalt sealer, seen a couple of companies do that. WD40 in a gallon jug just to clean. I think it's just a joke made me laugh anyway.

Looks like these were used as toilets! I had brews that tasted like ass, but never actually contained ass. These would be perfected for my infected batch! :rockin: I might be interested.

I am unemployed in the summer. I'd take the challenge of cleaning these. I don't know if I'd use them for homebrew, but it'd be a fun challenge. Replace all possible parts, and clean the heck outta them. It'd be fun when bored outta mind. I go to Omaha a ton too, lol

Ok, I think we finally have a "is my beer ruined" candiate that is a resounding yes!

perfectly good for your next DarkIPA LOL!

just curious apex, what's your plan for these?

Yes, it was a joke, gotta admit I'm surprised by all the comments who took it seriously. Thanks to those of you who got the joke and enjoyed a laugh or two.

So I was at the drags last week and saw they were using soda kegs as a vessel for their VHT traction compound spray rig. Seemed to work well for the application, even with all the gunk. The track manager saw me shooting the photo's and asked me what the hell I was doing. I think he thought I was with with the EPA or something.

It is scary to think what some of the used kegs out there may have been used for in their life.

I honestly thought this could be serious. I don't put anything past anyone at this point.

I figured this was a level from the jump, but some people are fearless so who knows.

I just had my carpets cleaned and guess what the guy used to spray the cemicals? Yep, a corney keg. I'm sure that they could washed up but I don't think I could ever be sure I wasn't poisoning someone.
