Hi,
Have a new kegorator, about 2 years old, After I took the last keg out about 4-5 months ago I completely forgot to clean it. When I opened it up there was some mold growing on the door. I disinfected and cleaned the door and inside of the kegorator and I used the Penetrate Beverage Cleaner from National Chemicals Inc. to do a thorough cleaning of the beer lines and parts. I left it open to air out, and I plan on cleaning it one more time before I get a new keg. Am I ok, or do I need to replace the beer lines?
Thanks
Dave
 
Your probably OK.
Then again, beer line is cheap.
(it can be a pain to connect in a multi tap tower, but certainly doable)

I had a similar situation happen years ago, not log after I had gotten my keggerator.
I just replaced the lines. I figured a few bucks (less than $10) and a few minutes (no more than 15-20)...
was worth it to not risk ruining a few $60-$80 sixtels of microbrew.
 
Hi

What's it smell like?

Stinky lines make stinky beer. It takes a while for them to clear out (if they ever do..).
