That works great. This will be my next purchase. Brewing for 30 yrs. There does what it is supposed to do. Yes...a spoon works too, but not as well as this in bringing the true to the center.
Is the racking arm set in the up/down position? Is there enough suction to actually pull liquid through or is it all just going out the bottom dump valve?
Only whirlpool demonstrations that count end with a wort including hops drained to reveal the trub cone.
Let's watch a bucket get filled. Yipppeee...
A ton of setup to wash a keg.
Most of the setup is one time.
Hmmm...two thumbs up is pretty good but would you consider raising that rating to seven thumbs up?
How many kegs can you wash until you have to change the wash fluid out?
I don't know what was being used as the caustic but you should never add water directly to a caustic. You and the castic to the water.
I read that as well. What's the reasoning for this? Is this to avoid splash back or something?
Caustic and water can make a violent reaction that can explode enough to get you in the face. It happened to me. If you add caustic to water it dilutes it before the reaction takes place.
Hey, are you still happy with that keg washer? Did you have any problems with it
I would like to find a barbed “T” exactly like shown in this video, but all I can find are little three-way splices... not heavy-duty at all and ID doesn’t seem big enough. What exactly is the part used in the video for the T? Thanks and cheers!
It seems like a threaded tee fitting (304) with 1/2” mpt to 1/2” barbs inserted at all three ports. Is that correct?
I used one of these www.brewershardware.com/1-2-FPT-TEE.html and 3 of these www.brewershardware.com/1-2-Threaded-Hose-Barb-TFM12B58.html
Hi. What's the power of your pump? 25W or 65W? Thank you
apa sih

nice Olde Hickory tin on the wall. Thinking about purchasing this can seamer, thanks for the tutorial.
Hi I’m using exactly as you have shown. Works well BUT I am getting entrapment between tank and tri lamp fittings. Run hot caustic 30 minutes then hot rinse. How do you overcome this.
Its always best practice after using a CIP to take all fittings off and spray them down.
Have you ever thrown a carboy on this?
I havent but im sure it would work fine. We put a keggle on it the other day and it was great for a rinse
Brite tank or unitank?
Brite tank
@@jerrypie25why? Do you serve out of the tank?
You can serve straight from the Brite or bottle/can
@@jerrypie25 you could in s unitank as well right? Do you feel a brite helps with turn around time?
Well. What are you looking for? Are you looking to buy one or the other?
Is this an older kettle design? I have been thinking about getting a bigger SSBrewtech kettle, but it doesn't have full volume graduations?
This is one of the original designs of the kettle. New kettles have volume markers down to i think 1 or 2 gallons. They also just released TC kettles as well
How did you do the labels for the can?
I used a Dymo 4XL label printer with a 4x6 label and Illistrator to make the label
Does the Micro Spray ball really get the job done? I tried the regular version on my Unitank with a 1/5 hp or chugger pump and it was pretty much worthless. Looking at the micro ball.
Your going to need a bigger pump - i use a 1.5hp job so 7.5x power of the chugger
you need the micro ball when using a standard brewing pump. The regular size ball is for sump pumps and higher volume pumps
It will work fine if you do it right. They didn’t explain well on what else you should do.
The key is pbw between 130-180 and run it for at least 30 minutes. Make sure the CIP ball doesn’t get clogged. You will hear when it does. Also don’t use too much water. 1-3 gallons is all you need.
Where would one find that hot water tank on your wall?
I dont have a hot water tank on the wall. I think you are referring to the electrical control panel.
any comments on the position of that top nut? it seems to me that you'd want it screwed down pretty low to center it more into the keg?
Entirely up to you. We found having it at the top of the keg was the most beneficial
Wow
How powerful of a pump are you using for this set up?
Its a standard chugger pump. www.stainlessbrewing.com/Chugger-Pump-Center-with-SS-head_p_170.html
@@craftbeertraders7560 The chugger puts out enough PSI for that spray ball? The spay ball says recommended 29 psi I think.
I use the micro spray ball. That one is designed for standard brewing pumps
Hello my friend! Do you use hot water at 170 fahrenheit with PBW? Does the pump support this temperature? Thanks
Nope! Keep it under 160F as it is a plastic pump. Recommended temps are 140-155F
Yea we usually do 150-170. The pump can handle the heat, just not boiling water
Not bad... didn't think I needed this, but now im starting to consider getting one!
Was that it 😂😂😂😂
Trying to do this setup. What parts did you use for the Tee?
Its just a NPT T fitting with 3 NPT to 1/2" Barbs
Doesn't work very well.
why?
@@4taTransformacion Look at it.
Confused by your response. Looks like its working really well.
You know, I glanced right over this ingenious device. Had I not decided to give your video a quick look I would've never even considered it and just continued on with my fill and shake and wait and shake and turn upside down and...you know how it goes. I just ordered one. Thanks for uploading this vid.
so would you do a PBW cycle and then a Star San cycle? Or are you using something else and then rinsing?
Louis Castellanos PBW, fresh water rinse, Acid Cleaner #5, fresh water rinse. Then Saniclean before use. Starsan creates too much foam for use with CIP sprayers in conical.
We do PBW then a hot water rinse. Then well run the no foam starsan. No foam is key
What pump are you using?
Its a chugger pump www.stainlessbrewing.com/Chugger-Pump-Center-with-SS-head_p_170.html
Is it possible to CIP the blow off cane?
Yeah you can put the CIP in the blow off cane port
How much liquid do you put in the unitank/fermenter?
We had around 3 gallons in it
I put around 3-4 gallons. Enough for transfer port to pick up liquid while the pump is running. For a 7gal unit it would be less id say probably 2 gallons
Can you please post a complete parts list for this setup?
I found this PDF with instructions and a parts list from SSBT. This document does not use the racking port and tee though. ssbrewtech.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/article_attachments/115016965366/CIP_MICROsprayBALL.pdf
i wish i saw a whirlpool in a ocean
I use a spoon, works great.
