Looking to transfer from keg to keg pushing beer through a 2" diameter stainless tube packed with hops. This would be done at a very slow speed, several hours to transfer 5 gallons to either another 5 gallon keg or a 7 gallon keg. The problem is of course that I would have to sit there and watch it the entire time - and I can't because it will be in a refrigerator in my garage. So what is needed is a FOB similar to what micromatic sells to bars that don't want to waste precious beer. They stop the flow when foam is detected.
Any ideas on how to DIY this?
This isn't a discussion on why would one want to do this. Think of it as a randallizer which doesn't produce any wasted beer - or more accurately similar to how Sierra Nevada does Torpedo. It is how I want to pump some fresh Simcoe aroma into a tasty beverage which will be ready to drink in a week. Beer is currenly not carbonated, well maybe a little from sealing the lid at 40 psi and letting it sit at about 50F for a few weeks.
