It actually started yesterday morning. I was eating some breakfast before work and decided to check craigslist to see if anyone was selling kegs. I have never really had luck with anything in my area in the past, but I knew I just had to keep checking. I typed in "keg" and got a post for someone who was selling:
2 ball-lock corny kegs
5# CO2 tank (NOT empty)
Dual Gauge regulator
2 Bottle Cappers (manual and press style)
4 5L portable kegs with tap and CO2 cartridges
7? Gallon Glass Carboy
5 Gallon Glass Carboy
Bottling Bucket
Gas tubing with quick disconnect for one keg
The price listed was $150 and he said he would sell it all or sell separately. I thought this had to be too good to be true so I called. He only wanted $150 for all of it! I picked it up last night after work! I'm pumped I got such a good deal. A lot of the stuff I already had, but that was a good deal on the kegs, co2 and regulator alone!
Does anyone have experience reconditioning kegs? I am pretty sure they hold pressure, but one looks like it has some gunk stuck inside. What's the best way to get this out? Hot water and oxyclean solution? Help me out here.
