First batch in a keg

[E_Marquez]

The stars aligned, all parts came in. CO2 cylinder filled without a hitch (used rehab 7lb tank) Ball kegs bought, cleaned, resealed, cleaned and sanitized.

I have not installed my Perlick Perl Forward Sealing Stainless Steel Faucets yet in the Keezer, as it was still doing duty as a fermentation chamber until today.

But I was too impatient to wait on the install and kegged the beer that was ready.


Racked to the keg, pressurized to 30 psi, set in the keezer at 45 deg... Will try and wait 24 houris

Check for leaks!

Good work buddy. Make sure to rinse and then swing the beer racking line possibly all around your head, more or less like a helicopter.

Done, thanks for the reminder though.

No bubbles from any seal or connector.

Proof will be in the gauges tomorrow

Well I cleaned, rinsed and then sanitized like I do for any other line or part that touches the wort / beer... but I may have missed the swinging cowboy lasso routine.
Next time I'll keep the swinging in mind.. heck I'mm mention it to the wife right now so she can remind me.
