Hi Guys, caring is sharing...(but have probably been doing this for years )
I found a way to clean keg dip tube and beer line and more especially beer line without gas...
Clean out keg with all the dregs...hot rince again..
now add liquid cleaning agent (starsan) of choice and 2 ltrs of hot boiling water...
Seal keg.....wait a minute for pressure to build, you could also shake.
Release beer line tap and the fluid will flow out quite surpirising strongly and for a while to get enough through the tube and beer line and is
pretty hot too (so good clean)
(not sure what temp. the lines can sustain but I have had no issue)...
You can leave it there and done....but if you dont want liquid in beer line tube I also found if you let it cool to room temp and hold done beer
tap and the pressure will reverse and suck fluid back into keg... (not sure how this works but it does)
cheers
