Thanks for the replies. I had never thought of garden sprayers as an option! Im sorry to hear about the broken finger, and the 5L is just putting salt into the wound. Im not ready to commit to kegging and have been bottling for a while now I just saw the tap-a-draft system and thought it looks like a cost effective alternative. Im not sure about the frig situation yet, if I could get away with using a shelf or two in the normal frig that would be good otherwise I may have to look at a dedicated beer frig.
Cheers

Hi all, my first post!Used a TAD for a couple of years when I lived in a limited space situation. The system works quite well for what it is. I used both the PET bottles and 5Lt minikegs (hence my forum name) with the TAD head. I bought a couple of adapters from the U.S. which allowed the TAD to fit to the 5Lt minikegs. Took about 2 bulbs average to dispense either bottle or keg.
Dextrose in the bottle/keg to carb and set aside as you would with long necks or stubbies then attach TAD head, bulb of CO2 and away it goes. Never had a problem in all the time I used it. It was a good solution for the space I had at the time. I now have a full Kegging system ( 4 cornies ) and heaps of space to house it but I had to relocate to make that happen!
I have two TAD heads and 3 or 4 bottles and a couple of minikegs which are now surplus to requirements - any offers?
John.
