I’ve had mixed luck in the past using those hoses that plug directly into the tap faucet. When i was using them for growler fills in the past, I had the same experience you had in the video and a lot of bubbles were in the draft line…Made me worry that the seal was not perfect at the faucet and I was putting oxygen into my growlers. What do you think is causing your draft line to have so many bubbles? And what PSI do you normally have your kegerator at? All in all, this is a pretty sick device! Thanks for making a video to introduce it. Those magnets that help it attach to the fridge are awesome!
Great video. I have this, and while i love the concept, it's been a mixed experience. The clear plastic piece is hollow and is glued/welded together, and the first one I received had beer leak into it upon first use, and grow mold. Since it's intended to be sealed, it's impossible to clean. GF quickly replaced it, and the replacement is noticeably "beefier", and worked well for the first canning run. As to the magnets, the fridge I was using them on, they would occasionally dislodge when sealing the can, which is annoying.
Was there anything that you had to do to get the filler to properly seal to the Tapcooler tube? Mine seems to leak where the tapcooler tube goes into the hole at the top so I don't get the full counter pressure effect with foam leaking out the top.
I've just been really hesitant to get into canning, I don't really want to spend the money... But I would love to see a similar product for bottles. A counter flow nano filler; where I could just clip the bottle in place while it's hanging off a wall or fridge.
TapCooler has the very attachment. Search for it. I'm a big fan of some of their attachments like the PRV quick release. Makes bottling so much easier to release the pressure between bottles.
I have the Duofiller Mono, it works great for most styles, and would be faster than this device. But I am still planning on getting this counterflow can filler for Hazy IPAs and IPAs in particular. The Duofiller will still have a lot of Oxygen ingress in the can and will 100 percent oxidize the beer over time on beers that are very sensitive to oxidations.
Canning makes it super easy to give beer away!! Definitely saving me from having to drink it all 🤣
This! Best reason to can…
Dog dude is going hard as per usual ;P
Great video as per usual :) keep it goin!

Curious, have you tried putting the growler in the fridge or freezer first to keep it cold before filling?

Where’d you get that hose for the kegerator faucet? All the ones we’ve found are too big for perlick

where did you get the tee shirt?
Love your videos. I do have a question for you. Is this a needed piece to can or can you use the beer gun?
I use the beer gun. No complaints
That beer is so oxidized. :/

I find the price of this system amazingly expensive. The Duofiller Mono is cheaper and automated

you are so clueless.
