How to fill a perfect draft keg with home brew
How to Fill the keg
- connect the pipe to air in on the vacuum pump box
- Connect the liquid connector to the top of the keg and put the pipe into a container of 6 litres of water
- Turn on the pump this will cause the water to be pulled in to the Keg (cleaning cycle)
How to empty the keg
- connect the pipe to the air out on the vacuum pump box
- switch on the pump until all the liquid is discharged
Repeat the above process with a no rinse sanitiser
How to fill the keg with un pressurised beer
- add 6 litres of beer to a sanitised bucket
- add the required amount of sugar to ferment to the correct C02 level for your beer style.
- Fill the keg with the beer
- Condition the keg for two weeks so that it is at the correct C02 level
How to fill the keg with pressurised beer (from a fermentor?)
- Connect the liquid connector to the top of the keg and put the pipe to fermenter/corny keg.
- connect a spunding valve to the air (in/out) pipe.
- As the beer in the fermenter/corny keg pressurised the beer should transfer to the perfect draft keg (adjust the spunding valve to help the transfer)
