I have recently completeted collecting my kegs for my 3 vessel, single tier brewery. My local pub sells me newer kegs for the deposit he pays. I have a local welder who cuts my tops and welds in my inserts for a very small fee..Have found the 1/2" NPTF SS inserts from a local supplier for under 6 bucks.....I have less than $ 65.00 invested in each vessel( keg, inserts, and labor. ) Because of the low cost, I would like to convert a keg into a fermenter. My idea is to remove the stem from the keg for blow off tube, add an insert at the the side for raking, another underneath for capturing yeast, and 32" legs. Is there any sanitizing concerns or cleaning problems any of you can see with this set up? I am concerned about the small opening at the top for access to clean and sanitize.
