rats! in some ways I am regretting asking my question, but good shout! I will call them tomorrow.

Hi all, I managed to pick up an old keg yesterday which I am planning on turning into a keggle. It's still more than half full, but I have no idea how long the chap had it for, it was just sitting on his drive for a while. Anyhow, after doing a bit of research, I undestand I need to release...

Thanks guys :-)
