Can you give some info or pictures of these keg types. I've been reusing Key kegs and petainers and some other " one way " kegs for several years.

Hi yes Chippy tea thats the kegs they are throw away one time uses it seems to good to thow away

They look very robust, no bag in them? The issue is making sure that you can clean them out well and if they have a proprietary closure specific to the dispenser making a wash in and washout for the keg is needed. This might require you to hack the device that dispenses to achieve this.
But they look promising.

thanks for your reply room with a brew ,the keg as a bag in it

Right, I took the bag out of the Key Keg and then just fit the Key Keg connector on the top part. I didn't feel that I could reliably clean the bag.

Hi, would you know where I can get petainers from please?

I get them from bars after use, you'll have to phone around. They are glad to get rid of them.

The petainers I get I wash out using the D sankey connector and a pump recirculate water first, then pbw and then fill with starsan and purge with CO2.

Closed transfer to fill them using the D coupler and connectors.
