It feels like an April fools joke...

It looks like it was designed for something else and has been repurposed... ish
so... a vibrator?

And yes, hilarious and must be a joke.
Does a magnet go inside the keg to agitate the surface? I can't access FB currently.
Many of us probably already have a palm sander that would do the job. Might try that some day.
lol, kinda loud, but i was bored!

maybe if your beer fridge is in the garage and not the kitchen?
haha. Report back in 24 hours
Imagine what could be done with a commercial paint shaker, we don't need no stinking vibrators, unless it is one for concrete...duct tape one of those to a full keg and get the job done in hours, try not to abrade the side of keg though.
I have a similar sander to brac's, was thinking slight padding and maybe a zip tie around the keg for the trial run, maybe invest in a dedicated bungee cord if that works out.
Kind of joking, it is past bedtime, in fact it is a waondr I can type...
This thing might actually be for real. Vibrating the fluid could create more surface area at the headspace to beer interface, which would in fact increase the rate at which CO2 dissolves in the beer. Need to look at it closer when I haven't been drinking. If it actually works as described the price should come down as competitors get into the market. The "true value" price should be around $20 or less.

Having the CO2 move thru the beer on the way to the headspace also increases CO2 absorption. But, it's the disturbance of the surface, increasing the surface area, that is the big driver. With the headspace CO2 going into the beer faster, the flow rate of CO2 into the keg increases, so the effect of the CO2 bubbling thru the beer is also increased. It's a synergistic effect.they say on the morebeer site, it's important to hook the gas line up to the bev out post...so it wouldn't just be head space...
and as always!

This is pretty much my technique, though my 2.5gallon kegs are easier to shake than a 5 gallon.

She's a snorer?I'll save the $90 and just put a keg on the end of the bed, my GF keeps me up all night.....
I can get a massager at BB&B that can be used on "sore muscles," for less.
This is pretty much the way large commercial breweries do carbonation.We roll and shake our kegs all the time under high burst carb pressure to do just this.
The real trick would be to inject CO2, via carb stone, from bottom of beer, at every so slightly increasing pressure, to ensure the tiny bubbles were absorbed before reaching the beer's surface, and increasing the pressure slowly as pressure and dissolved CO2 increased until equilibrium at server pressure is reached. With beer at serving temp the whole time of course.
Simple. Just need a glass keg to keep watch.

This quote sums up my life.For $20 I’d try it. But at $90, I’ll spend $120 to make one.
