Top video. Thanks for covering this for us. If you dont mind we will embed this into our own website.
Sure, please do :)
Thanks for that David, very helpful as always.
Great to hear, cheers 🍻🍻🍻
Just bought one and came back to refresh on the connection layout. Well done, thank you :)
Great, thank you.
Just ordered one from BKT here in the UK. Good to see you gave it a good review. Finished cleaning all four lines in my Series X, what a ball ache having to use mini kegs and gas.
Great to hear chris 🍻🍻
God damnit, Keg Land keep coming up with news ways of relieving me of my hard-earned...
Haha, yes. Still, at least the price is low.
I put one of these kits on my Christmas list! This will save so much time and headache after kicking a tap!
Yes, ideal stocking filler gift for sure.
Thank u for this video, I immediately ordered the kit…
Sorry for some reason your comment was put in a spam bin. Great to hear, I hope you are enjoying it.
lovely hack! Happy Holidays DH
Cheers CH 🍻🍻🍻
Well this certainly looks useful. When I need to be thrifty with gas, I've found a the end of a turkey baster filled with sanitiser/line cleaner fits perfectly into a John Guest fitting. It works surprisingly well- though this looks way better.
Yes there are other work arounds but this is cheap and effective.
Genius idea! I have to give this a try
Sure is :)
Nice video mate. Cheers 🍺👍🏻
Thank you :)
The thing I was waiting form ordered it immediately
Yes, very useful and cheap is a nice mix 🍻🍻🍻
Been using this as cleaning and sanitising device as well as blow off for about 6 month. It’s a winner especially when using items like the iTab or doing pressure transfers. You really don’t want to do a whole co2 setup to be able to clean in those cases
Great. Yes, very easy and good solution
I use a 5l hand pump garden sprayer, I just cut the spray head off and put a carb cap on. Effective and only around £5 from Wilcos here in the UK. Also good for pressure testing and moving large amounts of liquid around.
This is going to be easier for those without a solution I should think.
Me to, been working great and easy since I can store Star San in it and use it for all lines´.
Great :)
Yes, I brought one.
Great, enjoy :)
I bought one of these with them 2.5 litre PET bottles. It doesn’t seal well at all on those- but I’m sure I can find an O-ring in my selection that will solve it. It still works ok even with the leak and easier than the way I was going it. I’ve been using a no-rinse line cleaning solution (Kegworks)
Ive not tried larger bottles than 1.5L. Perhaps try something smaller and see if that helps.
this one looks like a no brainer purchase!
Its cheap and effective yes :)
I have been doing something like this for a while. The hand pump assembly cost about seventy cad up front, I have since gotten a screw on post for my keg tap and I run it continuously through (llc) into a bucket and do that thrice and then rinse with water twice.
Great :)
Wow, just the excuse I needed for another kegland order
Great 🍻🍻🍻
The Kegland guys are clever !
Oh yes :)
I just use a garden pump sprayer. I joined the existing outlet tube to some beer line by soaking the beer line in boiling water and then sliding it over (I kept the trigger so I can control pressure output). Works perfectly. Spear & Jackson 5LPAPS is what I used. I just use the sprayer to produce the pressure, I don't put the cleaner in it. I attach it to the inlet of a corny filled with cleaner.
This is probably cheaper than using a garden pump sprayer and by the sounds of it easier.
£13 and a small piece of pipe isn't costly and many people may already have one. I use it for cleaning kegs and beer lines. You build up pressure in the tank and it's like having a portable lightweight air compressor.
@6581punk Sure but this is cheaper and easier.
Thanks for the great Video David! Really appreciate your contribution to the home brew community! Will definitely be adding one to the next kegland order 😀
Question: After flushing my beer lines, would it be safe to leave Stellarsan in the lines until next use, while I use my Keg Fridge as a fermentation chamber?
Cheers Luke. Acid based sanitisers do their job quickly and can then be drained from the lines. Leaving them full over prolonged periods will cause slow damage.
I use an $8 Home Depot sprayer. Ball lock post uses same threads. Basically the same cost. This is a good option too. Would have just bought this if it existed and my LHBS had it in stock
Sounds about right :)
Yeah... I used a sprayer for the dollar store with a ball lock post and a brass fitting adapter - all worked out under $20...works great! That said, if this gadget was around 10 years ago, I'd be a gettin' awone!
This is probably cheaper 🍻
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Yup...considering the cost of ball lock post, $4 for spray bottle and fitting... my pump bottle really blasts the crap through with a sustained jet though...not that much pressure is required... I usually just push a PBW solution in and let it sit for a few minutes...then sanitize it with Chlorolox pink solution and then flush with warm water...
🍻🍻🍻
I wonder if you can use it to add things like biofine to a keg with out opening it.
Worth a try :)
Thanks for the tip! How often do you clean your lines?
Once a month at the least. Clean lines are very important.
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Thanks. I better get to it then🥴. I dont dare say when I did it last.
It is important for pour and flavour 🍻
That desreves a look at for my non-beer line usage. I am wondering if it is adptable for other things.
I think so James. Yes you could use this for other tasks too. Some even use it for beer serving on the night.
@@DavidHeathHomebrew The thing I had in mind was the cleaning (off line) of the GF Conterflow chiller. At present I use a tube and bulb pump I am pretty sure intended for an enema :-) but I do not think the chemicals are good for it over time. I generally back flush the line by connecting the hot outlet to the wort out and run the cold water though before and after brewing and then do the enema thing then the back flush again. I think I may be a little paranoid regarding water remaining (because it is very likely to) in the wort flow tube.
The device you mentioned is intended for these chemicals.
I do that cleaning in the Brewing system
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Yes but the brewing system goes forward. I lake to back flush to dislodge any possible particulate. Like I said paranoid.
Ahh I see. As long as you clean after everybrew and rinse then you should be fine. Adding a step with Star san or similar from time to time works too.
Is this pump strong enough to use on a 4L or an 8L Oxebar pet keg to produce serving pressure?
Its not designed for such use, merely as a way to clean. Ive not tried it for anything else 🍻🍻🍻
In your view, what is the feasibility of using this as a "Beer Engine" for Party Cask Ales at the 2-3L range?
If the intension is to serve the full party keg at once then no problem. However if not then it will oxidise the beer given time.
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Yes, that's a given. For example and context: consider a homebrewers meetup, this Kegland t-piece seems to be quite versatile, from counterpressure filling a 1.5L or 2L soda bottle, with the carbonation cap, to serving at the meetup using the pump to move the beer. Seems like the pum would also fit on the 8LPCO38 keg adapter as well? By the way, tried out your beer liner cleaning idea with sanitising my kegs, worked like a charm!
by the way, I noticed that the pump has a maximum pressure level and then starts to release overpressure. do you know what pressure level that is?
I use two 2L weed spray pump bottles with a ball lock post on each. one with purple line cleaner and one with water to rinse. this is the way
This is probably cheaper and easier but once you have a set up then all good :)
That's what I've used for years. Pressure garden sprayer. Ball lock post adapter and purple beer line cleaner. Works a treat.
Great, whatever works :)
I attached a gas ball lock disconnect to an electric tire pump. I use a 2 1/2 gallon corney keg and the beer line cleaner flows through my lines and taps in no time.
I tried a foot pump initially, but it takes way too many pumps.
This is probably cheaper and easier but once you have a set up then all good :)
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Thanks for your reply. I watch all your videos.
Your idea would be cheaper, except that I already have the pump. I'm an avid cyclist so everything was already in hand.
I'd actually bought one of those cleaners that attaches to the front of the tower and works on gravity. That was a waste of money as it was too much work.
@@fredfosdick4093 yes, no problem. I can see that. It is for sure good to use what you already have.
Ok, so that pump adds pressure for PBW etc. to rinse the line however wouldn’t just a carbonation cap and some pressure on the bottle be enough!? I don’t see any use for that tiny pump!
The pump allows the liquid to flow to allow for a proper end result. This would not work well without it.
@@DavidHeathHomebrew Guess you’re right, movement of cleaning liquid is crucial for it to become completely clean. As a complete brewing beginner I probably have to rebuild my custom “Bucket Blaster” to accept beer lines as well.
Yes, that would work :)
I just use the cap fitting and squeeze the bottle to push the liquid out
This setup would make that easier and more effective I should think.
I have the carb cap and a piece of line, and just squeeze the bottle. Call me a simpleton, but it's less parts, less fumbling and works the same.
If its working for you then thats all that matters 🍻
You guys use gas? Hot water, stainless keg, shake and connect. Heaps of pressure .
Many do
I tried this but it doesn’t flow at all. I build pressure up and open the tap & nothing comes out …
Sounds like there is something blocking your line.
Why can't you buy the 'Mini Yellow Hand Pump' by itself? Many of us will already have all the other parts....
That would be a question for Kegland 🍻
Another one here using a couple of weed sprayers, half the price and more convenient than this kit.
It is all about choices and price will vary of course, as well as effectiveness.
