Food Grade Buna-N Homebrew Keg LID O-Rings – from $1.30 Each

Keg Lid O-Rings - Food Safe Buna-N

Valuebrew offers a lineup of food grade keg replacement o-rings in bulk quantities.  Most offerings are silicone or EPDM with one Buna-N option.  Everything they carry is food grade, more info below.  They have some unique offerings like bulk pin lock size post o-rings, replacement universal poppet o-rings, bulk internal QD o-rings and color coded Blue and Green post o-rings

Some of these offerings are detailed in our Keg Rebuild How-To

Their Buna-N option is FDA rated for food contact. Buna-N offers low permeability (even less than silicone) and similar to pricier EPDM. That means less oxygen ingress.

Valuebrew has struggled to keep items in stock and that’s been especially true of lid o-rings. As of this posting, these are in stock. A 10 pack is on sale for $12.99. That’s just $1.30 each.

Color Code Keg Post O-Rings for Easy Identification:

Valuebrew carries two color schemes to color keg posts. Doing this allows you to quickly identify keg posts. Gray and Black match standard keg QD colors. Blue and Green are meant to be remembered by “Blue for Beer” and “Green for Gas”. All options are made from FDA rated silicone. Since they work equally well on gas and liquid posts you can also mix and match to come up with your own color coding standard.

OVERSIZE Food Grade Silicone Keg Dip Tube O-Rings – for outliers & problem kegs

Keg Dip Tube O-Rings - Food Safe Silicone

From Valuebrew:

Announcing Over-size Dip Tube O-Rings! We’ve The vast majority of kegs work well with out standard sized dip tube o-rings available in both food grade silicone and food grade EPDM. However a small number of kegs require a larger dip tube o-ring. Beyond that some kegs are dinged up and leak using the standard size even when they shouldn’t. These are slightly larger than our standard dip tubes (.55 OD vs .50 OD) and made from the same food grade silicone we use for the standard size.

Bulk Keg QD Quick Disconnect Replacement O-Rings – Save Money, Buy in Bulk

cmbecker ball lock

Ball Lock and Pin Lock Keg QDs have an internal o-ring gasket that keeps liquid and gas from leaking out the top side.

I’ve found that it’s pretty easy to lose these.  Beyond that, they wear out and crack.  I’ve also had some that have gotten seated incorrectly and ended up becoming mis-formed so that they no longer sit properly.

Related: Keg Gaskets and Replacement Part Numbers

If you’re looking for CM Becker (and compatible) OEM replacement parts, that’s easy… check out Keg Connection.  They have a nice diagram that shows all the parts and pieces – (gaskets, spring, stem and caps) for both ball lock and pin lock QDs.  See: Disconnect Parts List at Keg Connection

This post is a look at a non-OEM replacement option, that I’ve found works well in standard ball lock and pin lock style QDs.

These may be cheap, but wait…

Food Safe Materials

The problem: At one point I had an o-ring manufacturer reach out to me that had found this resource while trying to do some market research.  This manufacturer suggested that many of the products that homebrewer’s use are made out of industrial grade materials that should not be in contact with food & beverage products.  These materials could potentially contain materials that are not meant to be ingested.

Okay, that’s a little concerning.  It was at this point that I added a section to that resource that talked about the issue.  I also started adding disclaimers to posts when I was unsure whether or not materials were food grade.

The next problem: For whatever reason, in my experience, it’s extremely difficult to find offerings that claim to be safe for food contact.  Maybe some of the o-rings that are available are food safe, but very few are actually labeled as such.

Keep Reading Food Safe Replacement Keg O-Rings in Bulk

Important Note: Although the Amazon offerings listed here may be the right size for most keg applications, they aren’t necessarily appropriate for use with homebrew kegs.  As of this update they are not marked as appropriate for food use.  If you’re looking for food grade, o-rings, which I think you should be consider this supplier

Father’s Day Deal on… FDA Rated EPDM O-Rings from Valuebrew – Low Permeability, Less Oxygen & Off-Flavors

Valuebrew has announced the availability of bulk EPDM o-rings for homebrewers.  EPDM is a favorite of many pro brewers for certain applications. Until now, these have not been available to homebrewers, or at least easily available. EPDM has some real advantages over silicone. One of the big ones is a much lower permeability. That means they seal better and since they’re less porous they are more resistant to absorbing off-smells and off-flavors.

They are FDA Rated for food use and NSF61 certified. As of this posting, post, dip tube, lid and internal QD options are available in 10, 25 and 50 count options. Valuebrew has struggled mightily with availability and they’ve already made some indications of potential issues with new EPDM offerings. In particular, the lid o-ring description says they received a small shipment.

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

MRBrew Keg O-Ring Set

These may be cheap, but wait…

Food Safe Materials

The problem: At one point I had an o-ring manufacturer reach out to me that had found this resource while trying to do some market research.  This manufacturer suggested that many of the products that homebrewer’s use are made out of industrial grade materials that should not be in contact with food & beverage products.  These materials could potentially contain materials that are not meant to be ingested.

Okay, that’s a little concerning.  It was at this point that I added a section to that resource that talked about the issue.  I also started adding disclaimers to posts when I was unsure whether or not materials were food grade.

The next problem: For whatever reason, in my experience, it’s extremely difficult to find offerings that claim to be safe for food contact.  Maybe some of the o-rings that are available are food safe, but very few are actually labeled as such.

As if this update on 6/10/2024:

  • I don’t anything on the MRbrew gasket set product page that mentions these being made of food safe materials.
  • I do see (in one of the graphics)… Durable Silicone Rubber & Rubber & Hard Plastic… what does that mean??
  • Food Safe Replacement O-Rings: My recommendation is to purchase food grade o-rings. The supplier that I’ve been able to count on for food grade orings and gaskets is Valuebrew – Food Safe Replacement Keg O-Rings
