This is totally theoretical at the moment, but is daisy-chaining kegs possible? Has anyone done it?
What I'm thinking is, I'm expanding the brew system right now to go to 10 gallon batches, and I've got a few extra cornies lying around... I've though about replacing the cornies with sixtels, but I believe the theory is the same.
The plan is to carbonate each cornie separately, then in the keezer connect the co2 tank to one (full) keg's gas in, then connect the liquid out to the second (full) keg's gas in, then purge the head space in the second keg thereby filling the second keg up to the "gas in" post, then connecting the second keg to the tap as usual. It seems to me that the pressure from the first keg should be enough to push beer from one keg into the other then out the tap, right?
I'm sure there would be some system pressure tuning needed, but is there something big I'm missing that would make this not work?
Or have I had a few too many tonight?
Cheers!
