Marking Kegs

[Fents]

I write it down in my brain them promptly forget it. Bit of a guessing game over at my bar..."hey fella's $5 says this ones the pilsner"...

I write on some white gaffer tape with a perm marker and stick it on the plastic part - does the job nicely

I just use a post-it note.
Stuck to fermenter.
Moved to cube/secondary.
Stick to lid of keg.

Never lost a label yet.

Just make sure fermenter outside is dry.

Cheers FROGMAN.....

Those beers are well past their used by date Pete

You should rotate your stock more!

For bottling and kegging I use my memory. But that often fails. I use my taste buds

i used to use the Tags on a string..or a rubber band in my case.. which was great for moving from fermenter to Cube to keg..
Then i ran out and the kids lost all my rubber bands and i keep forgetting to buy more...

So for the moment i use the grey plastic duct tape looped through the handle and stuck back to itself.
which you can write on with a permenent marker and comes off with some good rubbing...

I will probably go back to the tags soon.. and leave the tape for marking kegs that are waiting for filtering..

I use large plastic suitcase tags.

Each one is numbered and the picnic taps have those small key tags on them with matching numbers. That way I know by looking at the picnic tap which keg I'm drinking from.

I suppose I could write what each one is in the inside of the freezer door (Its made from plastic whiteboard stuff) but I'm too lazy.

gary

My storage kegs are numbered but I use a paper tag and cable tie, because I know that the list with the numbers will get lost asap...

My kegs for secondary (shortened uptakes) are just red paint-sprayed a little bit, so I can recognize them easily...
