    filling a mini keg from a 5gal corny, critique my plan

    I would make a small change to step 1, instead of water I would fill the barrel with sanitizer and then I would do an intermediate step between step 1 and step 2.- I would dislodge the water from the barrel by injecting co2 so the barrel is sanitized, purged and presurized.- Regarding the...

    CO2 Regulator

    Once the regulator has been correctly set to the desired pressure, I find it better to work with the ball valve than with the knob that regulates the pressure. Especially if I have to change the keg and replenish with the same beer with the same carbonation. Shut-off valve with an integrated...

    Portable Glass Rinser?

    This is my system. I use it on the kitchen counter. The drip tray is in a wooden board and has a glass rinser.

    Wooden Kegs

    Unless you get a "ploungeur" that allows you to work with co2.- They are antiques but can still be found here in the south of the continent.- I have used them very little (with my beer engine), they are showy but nothing compared to modern equipment.-

    Paintball canister to 16g mini co2 connection

    I had my adapters made on a lathe. Take the tube and the regulator to the turner who does it for you. I also adapted some regulators with paintball gun´s remote connectors.

    Dip tube length

    From where the holes are cut there is no more than an inch of liquid left because the shell rests on the bottom dimple, so I was actually quite happy with the system. Of course the best thing would have been to find some kind of small stainless steel container but the only cheap solutions came...

    Adapter from commercial sanke coupler

    Maybe you can go for a cleaning sockets like these: Keg Coupler Adapter for Beer Line Cleaning Kit | MoreBeer It tooks nothing more than attach a ball lock connector. Of course there are designed with cleaning purposes so there is the possibility of a turbulence/foam party.

    Dip tube length

    I couldn´t cut my corny kegs dip tubes but I use the plastic conteiner of Kinder Eggs. Works perfect. Food grade plastic and cleanable.

    this failed me as a flare nut picnic tap, don't do it....

    You can pour a guinness with a plastic picnic tap. The video is awful but believe me, it was a pretty decent cascade effect. No nitro, only CO2.

    Why no higher end picnic taps?

    I upgrade my picnic tap with a 3/8 stainless steel pipe. Perfect fit. It's far from high-end, but at least I can fill the glass from the bottom. Spring helps prevent hose from kinking
