They look decent has anyone used these or something similar.

can' you just use a mini keg for a fraction of the cost?

I like the idea of force carbing on my keggorater setup, and having a propper tap.

I've had one for more than a year, purchased from NakedKeg on ebay. It works brilliantly and should last for years.

Hi Brian,

thats good to know, I brew about 24 - 25 litres so I'm thinking fill corny and a 5l mini keg and i can take little one out

 

[Smileyr8]

I am sure I have seen them on Ebay for £100ish all in.

I’ve just got one from dark farm for 99.99 Gareth there was really helpfull, hopefully carbing on my big cylinder and just using bulbs to push beer out.

 

[krispn]

Another naked keg shopper. Very helpful and quick to respond to queries.

Ive not seen these before, looks like just what I need. A quick question if I may, can I carbonate my beer in these?

Yes.

 

[krispn]

Yup. I’m carbing an Altbier in one as we speak

You’ll need the connector to allow gas in- liquid out but yeah it can be done

I've been using it as it is with no problems carbonating, I can't see any advantage in injecting gas through the liquid outlet.

 

[treebeard]

Yes.

Thanks BarnBrian; that one simple answer is going to cost me over £100! Seriously though, it's an ideal solution for me with little fridge space.

I didn’t suggest injecting gas via the liquid out. I was simply suggesting that the standard lid closure would need upgraded to the two spike gas in/liquid out fitting - you know this already no need to be obtuse.

@treebeard I can forward a pic but I’m guessing you know the fitting I’m talking about and you’ll see ready to go kits at many home brew shops, online etc.

The OP had referred to the complete keg with dispenser system so obviously I assumed you were talking about additional fittings to what was being discussed. Obtuse? Look in the mirror.

If you've already got a tap, disconnects and pipe don't these canonball 6.6 litre mini-kegs work out better overall? Even if you have to buy fittings the disconnects and pipe are cheap and a flow-adjustable tap is about £17 on ebay at the moment.

Doesnt the party star tap do the same thing and costs half as much
