I wanted to insulate a stainless keg and was thinking of a cylindrical plywood frame filled with something like
fibre glass insulation roof batt
polystyrene balls from a bean bag
Polyurethane space filler
old anorak
Sleeping foam roll
Mongolian Yak hair
Has anyone had any success with insulating one and made a neat job of it
I have seen the pics of Sqyre but that is not a SS keg
Pumpy
I just found this Thread...
Yeh pumpy mine is a stainless keg with the top and bottom rings cut off.
i just cut the rolled edge off the top so i can slide a piece of high density foam cut to the same size inside when i want to do single batches.
I wrapped some medium density 40mm thick foam from clark rubber around it and glued the edges together.
also cut some to the shape of the bottom of the keg and glued it on.
then slipped the whole thing inside a blue 80 litre drum and cut that down to size.
Then i cut a ring out of MDF to fill the gap between the keg and the blue drum and screwed it together.
I made it so i can pull it to bits if anything leaks.
I will see if i can find some disassembled pics.
