Can anyone from the Collegeville, PA area pick up mine for me? Don't think I can make it on Thursday. Thanks!

Would anyone be interested in group buying plastic kegs from plastickegs.com? I want to move to these and away from corny's. PM me if you are interested. I will make a new thread if the interest is there.

How much do they cost?

 

[bkl63]

Stay away from those plastic Kegs. A friend bought 26 of them for his Micro Brewery a year ago and 8 have had to go back due to leaks.

How much do they cost?

 

[Coff]

Wasnt it the plastic kegs that recent exploded at a commercial brewery killing an employee or am I mistaken?

Edit: Nope, I wasnt mistaken. It was at Redhook.

[Southern_Junior]

Also those issues were due to pressurized cleaning.

 

[natural320]

Also those issues were due to pressurized cleaning.

so what would the cost be then? you looking at the 20L versions, right?

 

[Southern_Junior]

Definitely the 20l. I'm waiting to here back. If they cost more than $50.00 I'm dropping the effort all together.

 

[Southern_Junior]

Kegs would be 73 a piece. No longer interested.

 

[natural320]

not an awful price, but I agree...

I'd rather put that $73 towards more "regular" kegs

 

[Southern_Junior]

I agree, I thought this would be an alternative to buying corneys. I would be inclined to buy them even if they were the same price, but they arent... So... Corney keezer, here I come.

 

[sqhead]

If anyone that is coming to pick up grain tonite could use some bottles, send me a pm. I have a couple of cases of belgian style bottles that are cleaned and the labels are removed. I need to clear some shelf space in the garage.

 

[dobe12]

Kegs would be 73 a piece. No longer interested.

Yeah, that's too much. Used cornies can be had in a group buy for under $30/piece.

 

[natural320]

oh my...

is this gonna happen?!? no rain/snow tonight?!

oh course we might blow away, but at least we should stay dry!

Lead boots are going to be a must tonight!


A couple quick notes about tonight...

I will have plastic sheeting in case the ground is still wet but feel free to bring a trap if you have one.

If you are splitting grain tonight, and want to be exact, bring a scale. You can always just eyeball it. Homer buckets from Home Depot or Lowes work great. Maybe bring a trash bag to protect anything you will have sitting on the ground.

Always double check your bags to make sure you have the right one. 2Row and Pale are different. Pale and Maris Otter are also different. Make sure you have the correct brand too.

When you arrive, come see me and i'll mark your bags off the list.

Other than that, see everyone tonight!

 

[PhillyDave]

[Coff]

Thanks again Jeff.
