Seems like a great buy so have ordered 2.

£2.99 for prime price. If you don't have prime you can either take out the trial (remember to cancel) or it's £7.74 all in including del.

I got a similar one from Lidl a few years back.

Incredibly accurate and much needed for carbonating MKs! :thumb:

Hi Dutto hope you don't mind but new to home-brew but will be using a mixture of MK's and bottles. how do these come into the process of carbonating the kegs?

To measure the exact amount of Brewing Sugar you require for an MK takes an accurate set of scales.

Unlike PB's such as the King Keg and Wilco Keg the MKs and bottles don't have a safety valve! :whistle:

For bottling, I "batch prime" the beer in the Bottling Bucket to even out the amount of Brewing Sugar that goes into a bottle but for MKs the beer goes direct from the FV to the MK.

Hope this explains okay. :thumb:
