    Portable igloo cooler kegerator

    yea... would be great but shipping from US to me those would get $$$ fast. Ill make the 2 5gal coolers work from the looks of things... i just saw with the link provided they have a "budget" reg / adapter for the paintball cylinders which is perfect for what I want.... still ends up cheaper by...

    Portable igloo cooler kegerator

    thanks! yea the 5gal sanky is a bit taller from what ive seen..... shame the cooler is jacked up in price now! I would of loved to go that route but the cost is just too high at what point do you call it quits and just resort to bottling. Ill need to buy a 2nd coupler no doubt as I want to...

    portable keg cooler / sanke kegging q's

    yea, but doesnt the beer skunk if left out in the heat / sun... also figured it would be much easier to lug around 1 sealed unit vs having 2-3 detached parts to lug around. Shopping around though it seems like its just as expensive building either or... im at 176 bucks shipped to my door...

    portable keg cooler / sanke kegging q's

    thats a solid deal! I thought about seeing for used coolers but most of the time people either ask way to much or there's a reason their getting rid of them... Would be more of a loss if the cooler is no longer holding the cold much. yea i asked a few friends already, most of the time when...

    portable keg cooler / sanke kegging q's

    well after doing some shopping.... those 70 qt coolers are not cheap here... about 80bucks + then another 30 for the top piece.... guess ill do the 2 stacked 5 gal coolers and rig up some wheels for well under 80 total. adds up fast esp considering Ill need a whole separate tap / reg set for...

    filling a sanke D corny keg

    Hey, so I just picked up a 5gal corny keg with a sanke D connection and trying to figure out what is the best way to clean and fill it. Ive done some research and there are quite a few dif ways people have done it.... For cleaning, I will definitely take the spear out at first...

    portable keg cooler / sanke kegging q's

    thanks for the response! I did a crap ton of searching and still managed to miss that thread! waiting an hour isnt too bad.. most of the time I can just hijack some beers from my buds or pack a 4 pack while waiting.

    Portable igloo cooler kegerator

    on page 20, MIkes 5 gal cooler... is that a 50 qt cooler? Im trying to decide which route to go for my 5gal corny sanke d porta keger.... cheapest possible is my goal truthfully. I can either do the 2 stacked 5gal coolers or the cubed roller cooler and capped top like he did... I can get...

    portable keg cooler / sanke kegging q's

    just shopped around a bit and looks like even the 10gal coolers here are in the 80-100 range... next cheapest solution would be insulating a garbage can of some sort ugh always something

    portable keg cooler / sanke kegging q's

    Hey guys, So ive been tossing the idea of building a small portable keg cooler I looked at doing a jockey box but a couple things are steering me away.... like outside temps in the sun, cost of coils ect... Odds are the keg wont be entirely empty in one sitting outside and I would like to...

    beer line too long causes?

    thanks for the info!!! guess I went across some bad info on a search in regards to bubbles forming on longer lines. (not surprising lol) good to know other then a slow pour there isn't any ill effect. time to forget about it and enjoy it!

    beer line too long causes?

    sorry should of specified... I got a commercial keg with a sanke D coupler. I clean my lines and all that fun stuff, so shouldn't be any blockages. So from what ive read it just seems the beer in the line itself has a potential to go partially flat over time. I know i could...

    beer line too long causes?

    So recently had a pour issue with a cream ale using 6ft lines at 13-14psi. I purchased 12ft lines which fixed the too fast pouring issue, now I do know if the lines WAY to long you will get bubbles in the line at the faucet but I am not quite at that point. with 12 ft lines (3/16) bevlex...

    air in beer line

    thanks for all the help lads... brought it to 15psi and voila lines are perfect.. comes out fast.. 1st pour im getting roughly 50/50 but 2nd is do able is a large mug... with 12ft lines it will prob be solid i could prob get away with 8-10ft shocked that 1-2psi can make that much of a...

    air in beer line

    I would have to call and speak with one of the "brew masters" as most of the workers there deal with "sales" and are not overly knowledgeable in that kind of info on their beer as i've asked before. It is a microbrewery so its a "inhouse" brewed beer, but I would presume your pretty well on the...

    air in beer line

    I should add... it foams every pour... curious... if the "transport" was a little rougher and the keg got shaken a litle more then avg causing even after letting it sit for 24 hours before tapping would that cause over carb and result in my issue?

    air in beer line

    hmm.. so would have to pretty well see if theres any nicks in the seal when i compress the valve.... I was also reading if the pressure is too low it can cause c02 to separate from the beer, however I doubt that is the issue seeing even at 14psi (with a too fast pour rate with 6ft lines) it...
