Hi Everyone, I have successfully opened an S type keg using an S style coupler. The spear will unscrew however the safety mechanism to stop the spear shooting out when pressurized will prevent removal. The coupler when engaged (normal operation) pushes down on the center of the spear allowing...

Thanks Sammus, I will go the sodastream and adaptor option for my party setup. Cheers

Hi Sammus, Do you mean I need to get another reg because the sodastream bottle once connected to the regulator cannot be disconnected until empty? If so I guess I could use this: http://www.craftbrewer.com.au/shop/details.asp?PID=765 Cheers mate

Hi Everyone, Just after some advice from keggers who have a portable party keg setup on the pros and cons of using either sodastream bottles or those kegchargers that use the small gas bulbs. http://www.craftbrewer.com.au/shop/details.asp?PID=979 I already have a large gas bottle and...

Hi mate, Yes that was what I did with mine. I used the RCA audio connectors from Jaycar and I have had no problems. I wanted to easily swap between the supplied probe and the probe that goes into the fermenter. I cut the probe cable about 6 inches from the back of the unit and soldered a...

Hi Fents, They probably could be modified but I think the hastle would be so much it would just be easier to buy em with with ball locks. I already have a 50L sankey setup, and with addition of the european coupler I picked up from ebay for $30 I was hoping to intergrate the 19L kegs into my...

Hi Deadly, Thanks again on the advice. I will try that tonight. If it works I will post a photo guide on how to open them for future reference. Cheers mate Simon

Hi Everyone, I now have a Euro S style sankey coupler with the longer shank to open this keg. However I am having trouble opening the spear for filling. I am able to knock the spear barb with a screwdriver and hammer anticlockwise so it unscrews but then something internally is not letting it...

Hi Guys, Last weekend I created a starter with a Whitelabs WLP039 Nottingham Ale Liquid Yeast. However my brew day was interrupted and I could not brew so my yeast has been in my starter since last Sat night. There has been consistent bubbling in the airlock for the last three days. Will the...

Here is mine, Just made it hope it works well. Oh and i've since cleaned the mash tun.

Cheers Deadly, I'll give that a go tonight and do a test with water and the coupler to see if it's long enough to operate with the S type valve. Could be a very handy party keg!

Oh BTW I have CUB style Nads keg coupler

Hi Phrak, Thanks for the advice, however I already use 50 litre type D (American Sankey) kegs. Thats why I have a CUB style coupler so I know how to open them. Sorry the pictures are crappy. The 19L keg looks different, a CUB type D coupler fits and I was able to release the gas inside the...

Hi Everyone. I was just wondering if anyone knows how to open an asahi style 19L keg? My CUB sanke coupler fits and I have released the pressure from the keg, but I'm not sure how to open it. It looks as if a special tool engages the two barbs that the coupler locks onto to open. Does this...

Cheers i'll check them out. Thanks :beer:

Hello everyone, Does anyone know where to buy a keg of Stella or for that matter any Carlton beer keg? I'm located in the ACT. I guess there is a deposit on the keg? I have a mate with coupler, Co2, pluto etc. Thanks :party:
