So, in the interest of low o2 post fermentation, I'm looking at keg priming.
I do 11g batches in a 60l Speidel. I purge kegs with starsan/co2, then gravity feed through a purged hose I to kegs, feeding the co2 out of the keg back to the FV. I do a good amount of hoppy brews and kegging with a few gravity points left isn't viable with 2 kids, 2 acres and a 50+ hour work week. I do swell the FV lid with co2 before and during cold crashing to avoid o2 suckback. I'm working g on a more elegant solution there.
My thought is to use a 20ml syringe to prime the keg but interfacing it is the issue.
I found these:http://www.coleparmer.com/Category/316_Stainless_Steel_Luer_Fittings/64135
A 7/16 - 20 unf would mate with a 1/4 MFL barb but I can't seem to find one, even in plastic, and those stainless fittings are pricey.
Anyone else have a solution to this?
