Ghetto TapKing

[hotmelt]

I bought a Carbonator cap the other week from CB and after using it I thought I'd try and put a tap on and use it like a TapKing,and so after searching for a solution I managed to put this together.

It's held up with velcro at the moment

And this is it off the bottle.

Does it work?

I've never seen brown lemonade. Any good?

Thats gold!

Does it work?

Seems to be ok but might be better with the mini reg to control the pressure.

You could attach a sodastream and reg by adding another John Guest mfl in place of the 16g co2.Also you could get a bigger pet bottle.

A better pic of the fittings

The tee cost $12 and the JG elbow $5.Everything else I had already.

Also you could get a bigger pet bottle.

Does anyone still do 3L PET bottles or is 2.25L the biggest.

When in doubt, check the dirt cheap stores for generic cola brands.

You can also link two or more together to make up for the smaller bottles.

Though the gap between them would need to be a bit bigger depending on the size of the bottles you use.

I got mine from the shop in Prospect but I can't see them listed in the price guide.While he was serving a customer I found it in the parts bin.

Nice work. Is the gas just to push to the glass? I assume the bottles are carbonated?

The first bottle I used the carbonator then used the keg charger but it was hard to get the gas right, thats why I think the mini reg would give more control or use a normal reg and soda stream.

You could also combine it with the party pack.

Just add ice

Improvise adapt and overcome. It doesnt have to look pretty it just has to work. Thats the principle i live by. You seem to be at one with the ghetto spirit. Love your work( True story)

yet again, homebrewers excelling at tightarsed inventive solutions.. well done!

I found out that I needn't have the bottle upside down anymore by simply pushing some beer line into the carbonator.Now it can lie down on a shelf or stand upright.
