Lion introduces "Tap King" - party keg / growlers

[Johndec]

Went to my local Liquorland in Sydney yesterday. The have a special on. Any tap king bottle, the dispenser head and 2 schooner glasses for $35. I jumped at it as I basically got a spare head and 2 glasses for $7.

BTW, I cracked my first home brew filled tap king bottle today. Works perfectly

Do you use cartridges or sodastream or other? Naturally carbonate or force carbonate?

 

[Johndec]

Cartridge (bought a pack of 20) and just chucked 8 carbo drops in it. I looked at doing the full hack but as I keg, it's not really worth the effort. A 23 litre brew fits perfectly into 1 x 19L keg and a tap king bottle.

I have this mini reg:

Item: Premium Regulated CO2 Charger for 16g Bottles - Home Brew

What I would like to know is what adaptor would I need to be able to run a soda stream bottle to this reg? Or would I need another reg?

Did u ever find an adapter for this?

 

[mattyc]

Haha, nope!! There is an adaptor further back through this thread, I'm just going to have to go back and find it. When I tried at the Maitland home brew store (where I bought the reg) they had no idea what I was talking about.

That all said, it appears that TK has dropped right off the boil, to the point I can't even find it any more?

Discontinued at least a year a go buddy

 

[mattyc]

Figured that would happen when I agreed with the wife to ditch my bottles at moving time.

That's what you get I suppose, I'll have to keep my eyes on gumtree and the likes. Otherwise it's onto full kegs (bugger, right?!)

 

[barls]

one word
mini kegs

If by any chance you're in Adelaide I have a TK head, 3/4 bottles and some CO2 chargers.

Otherwise it's onto full kegs (bugger, right?!)

Check out the mini keg bulk buy. Prices on page 13.

Excuse the x-post from Buy and Sell, but I'm selling my tap king set up, which has the CO2 regulator hack on it and 8 bottles.

I'm located in Murrumbeena, S/E suburbs of Melbourne.
