So I did the best thing ever and blocked up my keg by dry hopping pellets. Got a bit annoyed then racked my brain for something laying around with small micron filtering....and remembered we had an old single serve coffee plunger filter that wasnt being used anymore.

Sterilised it cut a chunk off, rolled it up, double it(folded in half) and shoved it into the end of the dip tube with enough sticking out so I can remove it again.....results NO MORE BLOKED KEG! :D

Cost $0 if you never throw things out like us

Time 5 Minutes

Thought this might help people out if they make the same mistake.....

Sorry about the dodgy photo still on the backup phone!

Cheers

Another option is a short piece of stainless braid from an easy hooker.
