How Does Keg Open/Close? Hi, Just wondering, is the keg resealable?

It is resealable, although it will go flat fairly quickly if there is a lot of air space.

There are faucet locks available as others have said. Shutting off co2 won't stop the pressurized keg from releasing beer

Same here, but we got them close..now HOW DO YOU OPEN IT? I'm afraid that when I bottle the Kombucha I wont be able to open them again.

Mine had two kegs. It's a great deal at that. Kinda like getting the second keg free.

A Keggle is a half keg that has been cut out to use in the brewing process. I am curious as well to see if a 12" false bottom will work for that as well

To me it sounds like there is no problem with the faucet itself, but maybe the beer is over carbonated if you force carbonated your beer or your serving pressure may be too high. I'd try turning off the co2 and purging the keg, then reset the pressure from about 5-10 psi and go from there. If the beer ends up being over carbonated, I'd purge the pressure off again and let it sit without any pressure on it for a day or two and see if it mellows out any.

hold onto the handle and twist to the left.. if it dont budge try holding it under hot tap water for a minute or so and try again.. its very hard turning and i cant do it when it is really on there good, my husband does tho so u might ask a guy u know if u still cant get it, but sometimes the hot water allows me to get it off, this is not good but i love the keg otherwise~! good luck with yours!

I don't think that would be possible as it's a very sturdy little keg with a plastic valve uptop which has to be turned in order to make the spigot work. Very airtight- Hope this helps

I whish that you could refill the kegs. It would certainly make the beertender much more appealing. I say this because it is difficult to find the kegs in stores. Even when you go to Bevmore they only have a couple to choose from. Good luck.

No, there is a c02 spout adapter that goes into the top of the keg. Or the bottom side has a plastic spout that pulls out to dispense.

Dimensionally, it'll probably fit, however I'm not sure how you'll tap it. The keg already has an integrated gravity tap. The best thing is to put it in the fridge for at least 3 days and then open and enjoy. I've personally never tried to put it in a Heineken kegerator beer dispenser.

it's really a month to be on the safe side. 2 weeks sitting in the keg, 10 days sitting in the bottles then a few days in the fridge. It's good...but since mr beer was bought out by "Coopers", the prices went way up on refills...so not sure it's worth it anymore.

Hi Jennifer-it depends on what type of keg he is using if he's using a stainless steel soda keg there are two types of connectors there's a ball lock connector and a pin lock connector. Look at the cage he has and see if there are two pins that come out of the male connector on the keg itself if so you have the pin type connector and can buy pin quick disconnect connectors on Amazon if it's the other ball type just simply look on Amazon for the ball type quick disconnects for soda kegs. If he's using a standard keg like a quarter barrel from the beer distributor then you'll have to have the appropriate connector for tags and you can buy that at your local distributor or possibly on Amazon.

It does not. I asked this question before my purchase and was mislead. You need to purchase the kit so it will work with all types of kegs.

I use keggles. This one is heavier duty and a wider surface. If using kegs - get this guy.

To be honest the keg doesn't last long in a house full of boys However if it stays in the beer tender and you keep it plugged in it should last a few weeks definitely no longer than a month.

No it does not. It has a built in tap at the bottom. All you need is the keg and a glass(:
