I found some other items at antique shops, but it's unbelievable how much stuff you find at metal foundries. Here, at some junkyards, they stockpile metals to melt them down and make ingots for resale. They have large bins divided by metal: aluminum, bronze, copper... I used to spend afternoons...

Here from Argentina. I used to collect antique serving equipment. Here are some photographs. I found most of it discarded and restored it myself. I find great pleasure in pouring my own beer on that old equipment.

Flensburger bottles are the best. A few years ago they were available in my town, and I can get a good supply of them. Just the right size for one dose.

In my experience, except for the "D" type keg necks (American Sankey), all of them (A, G, S, M and U) fit the 62mm clamp lids just right. It's a standard clamp size. I use them for fermenting under pressure

That´s exactly how I refill my paintball tanks.

I would make a small change to step 1, instead of water I would fill the barrel with sanitizer and then I would do an intermediate step between step 1 and step 2.- I would dislodge the water from the barrel by injecting co2 so the barrel is sanitized, purged and presurized.- Regarding the...

Once the regulator has been correctly set to the desired pressure, I find it better to work with the ball valve than with the knob that regulates the pressure. Especially if I have to change the keg and replenish with the same beer with the same carbonation. Shut-off valve with an integrated...

This is my system. I use it on the kitchen counter. The drip tray is in a wooden board and has a glass rinser. The table is mounted on the square pipes that are seen in the last photo that, being cut diagonally, are not visible and raise the table approximately one inch. This height allows the...

first of all, congratulations!!!! Name: Forebeer

Unless you get a "ploungeur" that allows you to work with co2.- They are antiques but can still be found here in the south of the continent.- I have used them very little (with my beer engine), they are showy but nothing compared to modern equipment.-

I had my adapters made on a lathe. Take the tube and the regulator to the turner who does it for you. I also adapted some regulators with paintball gun´s remote connectors.

those stainless steel bottles look fantastic. Another thing that comes to mind is some kind of container designed in 3D printing

From where the holes are cut there is no more than an inch of liquid left because the shell rests on the bottom dimple, so I was actually quite happy with the system. Of course the best thing would have been to find some kind of small stainless steel container but the only cheap solutions came...

Maybe you can go for a cleaning sockets like these: Keg Coupler Adapter for Beer Line Cleaning Kit | MoreBeer It tooks nothing more than attach a ball lock connector. Of course there are designed with cleaning purposes so there is the possibility of a turbulence/foam party.
