    CO2 in King Keg at start of secondary fermentation

    I transferred 36 pints of Munton's Directors into my King Keg 4 days ago. The previous batch I used the KK for (Festival Landlord) was quite flat from the start (I reprimed it and suspected a leaky seal so I've fitted new o ring, put vaseline around the seal.) For this new batch, I've also added...

    King Keg not holding pressure but no apparent leak

    Hi, I'm a newbie to brewing and to this forum. I have myself a KK top tap and am about to rack a Festival Razorback IPA in the next few days. I decided to check for any leaks in the KK as I've read that they are prone to leaking, but I just like the idea of them. I have added a pressure gauge...

    PSI levels in King Keg

    Hey guys, I finally feel I've got my King Keg as airtight as can be. I have fitted a pressure gauge and it isn't showing any leaks, so feel very pleased. I barrelled a NEIPA yesterday, primed it and injected a CO2 bulb too just because I know this beer type needs a little extra love. My...

    Advice/reassurance needed

    I’ve been a bit of a plonker. I grabbed a top tap king keg of freecycle and was ever so pleased with myself until just now when I’ve racked my x-mas beer into it to find that the tap is leaking. It’s a twisty tap and turns out the rubber/plastic inside the nozzle is to pieces (not a...

    Homebrew Root Beer

    I've searched in these forums for Root beer discussions -- the very few that exist are ancient discussions which died a quick death. I am considering brewing a root beer though, and wanted to create a modern thread. Hopefully this one doesn't die with as little input as the others, and brings...

    0 psi in King Heg

    Hi All, I've been monitoring my king keg psi, which has a Tom Caxton brew in, and just noticed the psi is 0. This morning it was 3.0 and has been since yesterday. There seems to still be co2 in the keg as it escapes when taking a reading from the Tyre valve. Any idea what I should I...
