SPECIAL! Free Airlock Grommets with Food Safe O-Ring Purchase

More about food safe materials:

For whatever reason, it’s difficult to find food safe keg o-rings.  Maybe some of the o-rings that are available are food safe, but very few are actually labeled as such.

The fact is we’re putting beer (food) in our kegs and we should be using food safe materials whenever we can.  More Info: Food Safe Replacement Keg O-Rings

Keg Lids With Hang Tab Lid – makes dry hopping easy… on sale for $13.50 via William’s Brewing Clearance

Keg Lid With Hang Tab

Keg Lid With Hang Tab via William’s Brewing

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

New lid with a hang tab welded on the bottom for hanging our Keg Infuser Ball, Keg Infuser Tube, and other straining bags. This fits Cornelius, Firestone, and Spartanburg brand kegs with 3″ by 3 1/2” oval lids. Includes a integral pressure relief valve. Maximum pressure 120 PSI. Includes a lid sealing O ring.

 

  • Hang Tabs! Keg Lid With Hang Tab – Unique hang tab design makes it easy to dry hop in the keg.
  • Manual vs Automatic PRV:  “Automatic PRV: sounds better than “Manual PRV”, but in my opinion, the opposite is true.  Both styles, generally, automatically vent at a set pressure for safety reasons.  Manual PRVs at the ability to…. manually activate the PRV.  That allows you to easily vent your keg as needed.  A tool is required to vent lids without manual PRV valves.
  • Works with both pin and ball lock kegs: In most cases, Pin lock and ball lock cornelius style keg lids are interchangeable from a size perspective.  That means you can, generally speaking, put a pepsi/ball lock style (manual prv) lid on a coke/pin lock style (no manual prv) keg.
  • An upgrade to pin lock style lids: In my book, that’s a solid upgrade.  See: What’s the Difference Between Ball Lock Kegs and Pin Lock Kegs?

This is discounted to just $13.50 via William’s Brewing Winter Clearance Sale. Shipping is free or reasonably priced flat rate to addresses in the contiguous US depending on your order size for most items

Tips for Proper Fit!

Related: Keg Repair Parts and O-Rings Roundup – search “universal poppet” on Amazon to look for more offerings

Tips for Proper Fit!

  • I use universal style poppets exclusively when rebuilding kegs. These fit the vast majority of kegs without modification. The only issue I’ve had has been some kegs end up a bit too tight.  In this case the universal poppets are longer than OEM poppets.  This causes them to seal too tightly. There’s an easy fix.
  • Use a pair of wire cutters or Nipper Pliers  to trim the universal poppet.  Search Amazon for “nipper pliers”.  Look for a tool that’s designed to cut nail heads.
  • Important: I suggest trimming a half coil or less and testing. You want the QD to slide on easily and for it to reliably hold pressure when the QD is off. Taking off a half of a coil and testing helps make sure you don’t end up making the poppet too loose.
  • Immediately replace o-rings. Over time, I’ve learned to discard the o-rings that come with universal poppets.  Why?  Because I don’t know what they’re made of and I want to have a reliable source for replacements in the future. Replacement o-rings can vary slightly in size. If you make this change before trimming coils to size the poppet will fit correctly when the o-ring is replaced (with an identical o-ring) in the future. Grab food grade replacements in bulk, replace immediately, trim and then you’ll have spares that won’t change fit when you need them.
  • Food grade o-rings are confusingly tough to find and in my opinion, these are especially important for universal poppets as this is one point that is in constant contact with your beer.

Back in Stock! Bulk Color Coded Post O-Rings in Blue and Green + Reader Feedback

Custom Color Keg Post O-Rings from Valuebrew:

A Valuebrew Exclusive! We commissioned the production of these custom color o-rings in the same food grade silicone we use for our other premium quality replacement o-rings. We picked the color and placed a massive order to be able to offer you these in bulk quantities at the same price as our other high quality post o-rings.

These can be used for either post. A suggestion we have is to color code your posts Blue for Beer and Green for Gas. This way you’ll immediately be able to tell which post is which. Plus your keg will look awesome!

These are sized to work with standard Ball Lock Cornelius style homebrew kegs. If you’re a Pin Lock keg user, they’ll also work. We recommend using your choice of colors (Blue or Green) on your Pin Lock keg liquid post and our Pin Lock Keg Post O-Rings on the gas post

  • These are available in bulk quantities.  Price varies based on quantity,  10, 25 and 50 count.  As of this posting all options are on sale with prices (10 count) starting at $4.99.
  • Compare: Keg Fitting O-Rings at William’s Brewing – multiple color options at 49 cents per o-ring.   No mention of material or food grade materials.
  • These had completely sold out, but are available again as of this update

  • Finally a food safe option!  Valuebrew has a selection of silicone food grade o-rings.  They also have replacement universal poppet o-rings and internal QD o-rings, also food grade.

Corny Keg Lid [Ball Lock & Pin Lock]… $12.99 + free shipping

Cornelius Firestone Keg Lid 304 Pressure Relief Valve Soda Lid Sealed Lid Homebrew Beer Ball Lock Barrel Beer New O-ring for Cornelius

Cornelius Firestone Keg Lid 304 Pressure Relief Valve Soda Lid Sealed Lid Homebrew Beer Ball Lock Barrel Beer New O-ring for Cornelius

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

  • Safety pressure valve and cleaning tips: 1. For safety reasons, when the pressure in the barrel reaches 70 psi, the valve will automatically open; 2. Please clean the kit before and after each use, and note that the diffuser needs to be boiled in water to clear the pores.
  • SS Pressure Relief Valve: This stainless steel pressure relief valve has a longer service life than a plastic pressure relief valve, so you do not need to replace the valve frequently.
  • Wide application: Widely used in carbonated beer, soda, juice, water and even soda. Suitable for all homemade wine barrels that require standard oval lids, including Firestone barrels, Cornelius barrels, pink lock barrels, etc.
  • High-quality quality: The use of 304 stainless steel structure makes this oval carbonic acid bucket lid stronger and more durable.
  • Easy to install and use: The large handle makes the installation easier; the labor-saving design of the safety release valve does not need to be lifted when deflating, just lift it once and rotate 90° to continuously deflate.

 

About keg Lids: One difference between Pin Lock and Ball Lock kegs is the type of lids that come with each.  Ball Locks, generally, have a manual PRV valve, while Pin Locks do not.  Ball Lock style lids are, in my opinion, superior because the manual PRV allows you to easily vent your keg as needed.  The good news is that, for standard kegs, the lids are the same size and can be interchanged.  That means you can use a Ball Lock style lid in a Pin Lock Keg.  See: What’s the Difference Between Ball Lock Kegs and Pin Lock Kegs?
