Announcing: KegLand Low2 Keg Lid O-Rings – or – Low Cost Buna-N w/Similar Specs

KegLand Low 2 Keg Lid O Ring

KegLand Low2 Keg Lid O-Rings

From William’s Brewing

This silicone O ring fits all corny type oval keg lids, and provides a better oxygen barrier than standard O rings.

OR – Lots Cheaper AND Similar Permeability Characteristics

Works on both ball lock and pin 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. In my book, that’s a solid upgrade.

Announcing: Kegland Rotary Spray Head!

KegLand Spray Head

More Info

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

Make cleaning your electric brewery easier with the Low Volume CIP Spray rotor. A low-flow spray head for low voltage pumps from 6w to 25w. The perfect spray head for 5 and 10 gallon vessels, including Mash & Boil with Pump and Brewzilla. The red cleaning unit features 1/2″ straight threads and attaches to the included 1/2″ hose barb with nut. Functions a bit like a keg washer – just turn it on and let it spin for 15 minutes or so with a suitable cleanser like Brewer’s Edge Cleanser or Kemphos 2001. Unlike simple rinsing, this unit really deep cleans the impossible to visually inspect interior plumbing of your brewery.

What makes it even more effective is you can turn the heat on your electric brewery up to say 160 degrees F, and the splashing cleanser will be more effective than at room temperature.

Clean your Brewzilla or Mash & Boil with Pump. If you have a Brewzilla, watch the video below for setup instructions.

If you have a Mash & Boil or Grainfather, you will also need to order 1′ of our item J46 Silicone Tubing, as this tighter tubing is needed to securely attach the Spray Rotor to the Mash & Boil or Grainfather Recirculation Arm.

Related: About CIP Spray Balls

CIP (Clean in Place) Spray Balls are generally used for vessels that are too large to move. Since they’re too large to move you… clean them in place. If you have a larger setup, you could incorporate these into your system or routine to help clean your vessels more easily.

Other possible homebrew applications: A CIP ball could be as part of a recirculating or sparging setup or as part of a keg or carboy cleaning setup. I use a (different model) rotary spray ball with my Mark II Keg and Carboy Cleaner. See: Mark II Keg and Carboy Washer Mod – SS CIP Spray Ball. Make sure the components you use are compatible and rated for your intended application. Contact manufacturer with questions about suitability or a specific application. Always read and follow manufacturer directions.

Mason Jars For Homebrew Ingredient Storage, Yeast Starters and More

You can also use Mason jars along with your vacuum sealer’s accessory port with a compatible jar sealer to store grain. Using my rule of thumb 1.25 lbs per liter, the half gallon size jars should hold around 2.36 lbs of grain and the quart jars should hold around 1.17 lbs of grain. Mason jars are reusable, oxygen impermeable and you can easily see the contents.

PET Soda Bottle Preforms and Caps – for yeast slurry storage and more – from $1.40 each at Valuebrew

Soda Bottle Preforms and Caps

These tubes are made from PET and are what are used to make PET bottles. These are similar to what White Labs used to use for selling and distributing homebrew yeast pitches.

Possible homebrew uses include storing yeast slurry and general small parts storage.

I recommend replacing keg o-rings using daylight savings as a reminder. If you’re already placing an order for food grade o-rings these test tubes are a great add on.

As of this posting these are on sale from $1.39 each (when you buy 10)

FLOTit 2.0 with UNI dip tube - No Beer Left Behind Floating Dip Tube with Double Filter Inlet (DFI) of 500/300 micron for always clear beer, less beer waste and no clogging.

My explanation of how this works…

When we carbonate a keg, pressure is being applied to the keg from the top, via the head space. Beer at the top carbonates first. That carbonation works it’s way down the keg. I’m sure there’s also some movement in the keg that helps to mix things up and distribute carbonation. But just sitting there, I think that mixing is a slow process. However it all works, practically speaking, the beer at the top carbonates more quickly compared to the beer at the bottom. This allows you to serve from the top accessing the more carbonated portion of the keg. It’s also a benefit for clarity because trub settles out heading downward. You can see this stratification in a glass carboy. As the beer starts to clear, the top clears first. I don’t think if this is exactly accurate, but I picture carbonation happening with the same sort of stratification until the beer reaches equilibrium and is equally carbonated throughout.

Thoughts From HBF…

The ThermoPop 2 offers 1/10th digit display which is a massive improvement over the ThermoPop 1. It also features an auto-rotating backlit display and super fast 2-3 second response times and… it’s rated IP67 waterproof.

I would say that this bridges the gap between the Classic Thermapen and the Thermapen ONE – Review. In some ways it clearly exceeds the capabilities of the Classic Thermapen and at a much lower price.

If you’re looking for a super high quality thermometer backed by ThermoWorks and the Thermapen ONE is out of your price range, this is a great option.

Announcing: Kegland Spund G2 Spunding Valve!

Spund G2 Spunding Valve

More Info

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

Compact ball lock spunding valve features a 0-30 PSI gauge and now features an adjustable manual pressure pull ring relief valve (adjusts from 0-15 PSI). The adjustable manual pressure release can be removed, and a corny keg pressure relief valve installed in its place. The gauge features a standard DuoTight 8mm stem, and can be replaced with our DuoTight gauges, like our items C18, Z97, and E69 if desired.

Lots of ways to use this and upgrade it. If you want more accuracy than the manual adjustable spring loaded relief valve, you can upgrade with our item C16 DuoTight Blowtie valve, which has a rubber diaphragm valve which will always be more accurate at low pressures than the included spring loaded adjustable relief valve. If you do this, you will also need DuoTight Joiner, item number C70.

You can also replace the manual adjustable relief valve with preset keg relief valves like our item G65 (17 PSI) or B54 (0-30 PSI).

A Spunding Valve allows you to ferment under pressure, naturally and precisely carbonate in the keg, fix over-carbonated beers and lots more. See: Build a Spunding Valve – for loads of information on building and using a Spunding Valve.

Announcing: Hop Bong for BrewBuilt X-Series Uni Conical + Hop Bong Hands on Review!

MoreBeer has made a version of Hop Bong available to work with it’s X1 series conical fermenters. The original FermZilla edition is also still available.

BrewBuilt X-Series Uni Conical | Hop Bong Pressure Pack | Oxygen-Free Dry Hopping Kit

More Info

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

Add dry hops without introducing oxygen to your fermenting or finished beer!
Load hops into the Hop Bong, fill it with CO2 via the ball lock cap, and pull the PRV to release oxygen
This is the perfect accessory to protect your finished beer from oxygen ingress when it’s still in the fermenter
6 oz capacity per “hop drop”—easily repeat the process if you just gotta have More!
Compatible with all BrewBuilt X-Series fermenters and any stainless conical with 1.5″ T.C. top port
The Hop Bong is a versatile pressurizable tri-clamp accessory that is perfect for purging oxygen from your dry hops before dropping them into your fermenter. Load up the Hop Bong, flush it with CO2, purge out oxygen with the handy PRV on top, then simply open the Butterfly Valve to inject your beer with a 6 oz payload of dry hops.

This kit is specifically adapted for use with the BrewBuilt X-Series conical fermenters and can be used with any stainless fermenter with 1.5″ tri-clamp top port. The 2″ T.C. Hop Bong attaches to a stainless 2″ butterfly valve that then connects to a 2″ x 1.5″ T.C. reducer. This allows the largest capacity Hop Bong to be used with any of the 1.5″ T.C. accessory ports on the BrewBuilt Conical’s lid.

Hop Pellet Capacity: 150–180g (5.2–6.3 oz)

Kit Includes:

2″ Hop Bong
Stainless Ball Lock Cap
Red PRV & PCO1881 Cap Combo
2″ BrewBuilt Butterfly Valve
2″ x 1.5″ Tri-Clamp Reducer
(3) 2″ Tri-Clamps
(3) 2” T.C. Gaskets
Warning: Always depressurize your system COMPLETELY before removing fittings from your fermenter.

In my opinion, the fact that MoreBeer adapter the Hop Bong for use with X1 fermenters speaks to how well these work.
