So, I'm a cheap bastard. I have two new kegs currently, but I have room for two more. I don't really want to shell out any money for new or used ones right now. So, my father has two corny kegs from the 80's that he used to use to spray malathion, round up, and various other chemicals in bug/weed control. I'm pretty sure these are steel pin lock kegs as my uncle used to work for Coca Cola and Dad got them from him....I haven't looked at them in a long time, but know he still has them. Is there any amount of cleaning in the world that would make these things safe to use for beer if I replace the poppets and gaskets? Hot water soak in PBW or other cleaning chemical? Would you do it?
