Cheap-ish kegs

Post by Steven P »

AIH has packs of 4 used Ball lock kegs for $130. I just pulled the trigger on a 4 pack and with shipping it was $149 which comes out to $37.50 each.

This is markedly cheaper than the guy currently on Ebay as his are $39 each and then add shipping.

I got a 4-pack of these a couple weeks back to up my keg collection. They were it pretty good shape. A new set of o-rings and a good soak and they are good to go. As it says, the lids don't have the manual pressure-release valve, but depressing the gas-in poppit does the same thing, though slightly less convenient, w/ the option of a big stinking mess if you drunkenly choose the wrong post. I haven't done it yet, but it wouldn't surprise me.
