Pulled the pin

[cushyno]

Finally pulled the pin on a corny keg order with BKT. I've been 'umming and 'arring for a couple of weeks and finally took the plunge. I Ordered BKT's 2 keg starter kit including SS taps, 1 off additional refurbed keg, 4 way manifold (just in case), and a sodastream adapter.

I have a stout and a Saison I could put straight into these when they arrive, however I may put the stout in a PB and brew a Kolsch and AIPA to make best use of the kegs.

You'll need the 4 way manifold alright they are guaranteed to breed

Think of the family allowance you'll be able to claim

I have no idea why they are called corny's, rabbits would be more fitting

He doesn't know what he's started and all the excuses(lies) he'll have to tell SWMBO

I have no idea what you mean The baron

Obviously the optimum number of corneys is n+1, where n is equal to the current number in one's possession

Good stuff. I took delivery of my first two cornies yesterday, going to fill one tomorrow, then hopefully two more arrive next week. I went with a dual regulator so I can have two different pressures. My plan is to store in the garage which is pretty much at cellar temperature and decant to a 5 litre keg to put in the fridge. The kegerator will have to wait.

I blagged my way to get “permission” to buy a new keg last April by talking SWMBO into getting a kit and making a Strawberry and Lime Cider for her and my daughter as a nice summer drink. The plan was as soon as the Cider was finished I’d have another keg but the weather changed before it was empty and keg is still half full of the Cider in the shed

You won't regret it. Best thing I ever did was moving to Cornys.

I find these useful for pressurising 2 kegs at different pressure's 6 quid from Ali Express

Sorry crap picture

I wouldn’t recommend pulling the pin on your cornies, it’ll let the pressure out.

Decent price. Are they accurate?

 

[Crappyfish]

Don't really know but I've used them on 2 kegs each one set at different bar and each beer was a different carb level. Still really getting used to them for force carbing they seem to work and no leaks. They are from the Kegland store on Ali.
