Hi.
I am a proud owner of a Unitank. I carbonated and kegged my beer today, and while I was connecting the carbonation stone I started thinking about how to avoid the evil oxygen. I had the carb stone to a T bend, and connected the stone to gas. Then I vented out of the t bend with a butterfly valve. I'd fill the t bend with co2 and vent a little/burp the bend before opening the bottom butterfly valve and letting beer flow into the t bend.
When done carbonating I'd connect the keg to the racking valve. I kept thinking that I have no way to purge the hose barb tri clamp and the space between the hose barb for oxygen.
How nazi are you about oxygen when kegging?
