I've been homebrewing for a while, and I keep a fleet of about 12 1/6th barrel sankes for my kegging purposes. Recently, I traded one in as I bought a keg of stuff from total wine, and figured I'd just use the new one to replace the trade in.
WELL.
I went to keg up a cider this morning, and lo-and-behold, there is some kind of cap on top of the spear that prevents getting access to the spring. Thus, you can't remove the spring, so you can't remove the spear, so my dumba$$ isn't going to be kegging a cider today. (This actually isn't true. I can go get another keg from the bar attic, clean it up, and get on with my day. But that's not NEARLY as dramatic sounding.)
Has anyone run into this before? Any way to pop the guard off?
