So I've recently made the jump to kegging and love it. I've got two corny's both using your cheapo standard picnic taps until i can fully modify my fridge for some perlick faucets.
How often (if at all) do you guys try and clean/sanitize your lines faucets during the life of a keg? I'm thinking a typical keg will last me about 4-6 weeks on average.
I picked up a very faint sour old beer taste on the 1st pint of the day i pulled off my my latest ESB thats int he keg right now....kinda reminisent of that keg party taste I remeber from when i was younger which was probably a result of old beer in those rent-a-taps
I'm thinking I should quite possibly soak the picnic tap in some sanitizer maybe once a week or maybe dissconnect the liquid line for a full cleaning/sanitizing every so often.
Is this a by-product of the plastic picnic taps or something that the most of you try and combat
