I bought a couple Corney Kegs (along with a bunch of other gear) and started kegging for my last two batches, and it's made my life so much better. I'm wondering how often I should replace the poppets on these kegs. The former owner had put print-out labels on the sides of the kegs with the date the poppets were replaced and three circles. I didn't ask, but I assume that he was in the habit of marking off the number of batches the kegs had been used for with the circles on the labels. It seems like overkill to replace the poppets every three brews, so that got me thinking: how often should they be replaced?
