Corney Kegging Commerical Beer

[John Beere]

I still do this regularly. I feel it works best if the beer is cold, the jumper line is short, and the pressure is set to just a few psi. If done right, hardly any co2 will removed from suspension and the keg will immediately be ready to put on tap.

Found this video on youtube the other day, maybe this guy is from these forums??

I just did this last night and it worked great. Took about 20min. As soon as I started getting foam from the pressure relief valve, I caught the foam with a pitcher and let it keep filling until the corny weighed about 48 lbs which should be 40lbs of beer and 8lbs for an empty corny. Drank the blue moon all night and it was perfect. Tonight, its got no head at all. No pressure has dropped. Not sure what happened. The beer did get up to about 50deg before I got it back into the fridge. I just bled the pressure and then took the CO2 ball lock and hooked it to the "beer out" side and pressurized it from the bottom of the tank in an attempt to force carb it. Seems to have worked though Im not sure it will last. Anyone have any ideas here?
Thanks

Thanks for this thread.

I was having major foaming issues from a sanke since my system is balanced for cornies. I saw somewhere in another thread that the dip tube on the commercial 1/6 sanke's is much wider.

In 10 minutes the beer was transferred into my corny and all is once again well in the world.
