The other day I purchased a couple of 5 Litre mini-kegs, one of which went straight into the fridge. Today (Tuesday), my wife needed some beer for her Christmas puddings, unfortunately the only suitable beer I had was the one in the mini-keg. I needed to draw off a pint pretty quickly and as such I needed to let in a little air. I did this by putting pressure on the inner part of the bung, a slight hiss relieved the pressure and allowed a pint to be poured. I didn't push the centre part of the bung in (as you would if you were going to be drinking the lot).
The problem I have is that I didn't intend on opening it until Saturday night. Now that I have let in a little air, I am wondering if the beer will go off before Saturday?
Should I just start consuming it, or will it be OK?
Also are these any good for home brew?
