pretty well what I have going on here.... pic for reference... not actually mine.

So im on my 3rd 58L keg the current one is a cream ale that is definitely more sensitive to pour. I only have a 6' beer line that worked perfect at 14psi with a blonde lager but I just ordered 12' lines for this ale to hope it slows the pour enough to prevent foaming as even at 10psi I am...

curious but would the perlick 650 with the flow control be able to adapt for a proper pour without the need to lower the psi?

another boring one for this thread....does the trick. only my 2nd half keg of micro brew through it and already wishing I had a selection of brews.. someday hopeffully..

one concern though, isnt the paint ball cylinders filled with a co2 that has oil res in it? would this be something I need to "clean" out before use

never though of that! I used to paintball back in the day so I have a few 16 and 24ouncers I got access to... I am def going to just fill one and keep as a backup..... once i get the adaptor ofcourse even if it cant push a full keg, it would only be a temporary "hold" to keep the keg...

thanks! Yea ive been keeping an eye online for a cheap used one... a new one is a little too expensive to keep as a back up. ive read it should last about 5-7 50L kegs ideally if 100% full... ill be happy to have it last every 2-3...

did some more reading... it looks like I should ignore the gauge all together until it goes well into the "red"

Hey guys and gals, So I was just curious.... How are you guys figuring when to re fill the c02 tank before tapping a keg? I don't want to tap a keg and end up running out of C02. I bought a brand new 5lbs c02 tank but I dont think it was filled 100% when I bought it... I am going on my...

Hey ladies and gents, I'm looking at buying a bottle filler set up from a keg. looking online im spending at the least 30$ in supplies to build one. Hopefully someone has a complete one or the supplies to build a complete one on hand that their willing to sell! I would...

interesting read.... now with all the expensive of hose cleaning and what not... at what point would it be cheaper to just have a crap ton of new beer line on hand and just a simple "detox" rinse to replace the old one.... I know for most of you that brew your own beer you need to have most...

thanks... Ill have to order some BLC so for the 1st go I just used a small pinch of oxi clean in about 1/2 gal of warm water then did a solid rinse of warm water... the lines where brand new so werent overly dirty just needed a good rinse / sanitation...

So finally got my kegerator finished.. figured id post some of the progress pics I took.. currently have some Perth brewery 121 Lager in a 50L keg Enjoy it!.. maybe be a bit too much lol... ice cold beer on tap is hard to beat! I let the keg sit for about 24 hours, had my tap right set to...

actually just looked now knowin what people use... BLC is heavily recommended over PBW! Well looks like I cant get BLC here or atleast cant find it (would have to find a beer shop) also BLC suppliers wont ship international. PBW is the route to go I guess... I'll just replace my lines...

sounds good! looks like Ill try and get my hands on some BLC or PBW and play it safe

thanks! So there really isn't just a regular house hold product like I mentioned that I can use?

also.. if anyone has some quick answers for me in this thread would be great... (this thread seems ton busier) https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f254/cleaning-products-keg-lines-512253/ Thanks for all the help to date!

Hey guys, New to this and was wondering... is there any house hold products / cleaners I could pick up at a wallmart and or Canadian Tire to use to clean out my beer line and tap with? I don't have much options for home brewing equipment without paying for shipping so trying to avoid that...

Yea its a pretty big fridge... def larger then the others I got. For now im buying the 50L commercial kegs from a Micro brewery These guys... http://www.perthbrewery.ca/ourbeer.html best prices around by a long shot.. their 50L kegs go for around 115 to under 200 depending on what kind...

thanks for the breakdown! so really not much of a difference in cost from one to the other (talking within a max of 5$ difference in a month) I loose well over that in my couches in a month lol (and never to be refound) Considering I had the wood all fridge ready to go in my basement...
