Keg lying down...

[Diesel_mechanic_nz]

Morning, where I live it is anyway,

Quick question/brainstorm.

Would there be any ill effects from laying a keg on its side in this part of my keezer, wouldn’t be completely flat, somewhat angled up, but the dip tube would be at the bottom, and bent to reach the lowest point. In theory I can’t see a problem. But has anyone actually tried it?

Cheers Daniel

Can't see why you couldn't make that idea work. Probably don't want a maxxed out keg on the first try though - the only thing I'd be concerned about was somehow back-flushing your gas line if its dip tube is submerged when there's a pressure drop (like you accidently popped a PRV at the regulator end)...

Cheers!

Exactly, In theory it works, will just put non return valves on gas lines.
