So, ever since I got into home-brewing, I wanted to try a lager. Unfortunately, I already burned a bridge by sacrificing my wife's deep-freeze to make a keezer and she's not likely to give up fridge space. My keezer isn't big enough to hold two kegs AND a carboy (better bottle), so I decided to try and ferment in a corny keg.
Short story shorter, I used a 1.5" piece of 1/2" bev tubing and wedged it on top of the IN side of my keg, then put a 3-piece valve in the tube. Fortunately, it wasn't too tall, given the design I used for the keezer.
I checked this morning (day 6) and it is actively fermenting. Good times!
