keg to keggle assistance

[jack_a_roe]

Recently a buddy threw two kegs my way for free and told me I could have them as long as I convert them to keggles. I have another friend willing to do all the work but just wants me to depressurize them before I hand them over (for obvious reasons). Any advice in making sure they are completely bled of all pressure from those who have done so?

Just got my conical and I can easily scale up a few gallons so this project wants to be done by spring.

If you have a coupler or a pony pump, you can do it easily. If not, lay them on their side and push the ball down with a flat head screwdriver or something similar until the pressure is released.

After the pressure has been released, remove the retaining ring and the spear will pull straight out.

I just plasma cut a couple last week. I used the procedure outlined above. It worked well. I took me a minute or less per keg to bleed the pressure and pull the spear. Very easy procedure.

perfect, seems easy enough!. was worried about it building back up after it bled all out but this clearly will solve that. thank ya kindly
