Does the keg have a pressure release value, mine looks like the picture and I can't tell how to release pressure

Pin locks do not have a "formal" release. just press the little round spot on the gas inlet to purge oxygen.

I'm not sure if it's the official way to do it but if you've already pressured it pull off the gas line and stick a flat head screwdriver into the inner circle on your post (like letting air out of a bike tire). Should hear a nice hiss...let off as much as you want/need and you should be good to go.

There should be a small ring, about the size of a dime, on top of keg. Pull it.

Yes it has a pressure release. You pull up on the ring attached to the pressure release. Do this prior to opening and if you over co2 the keg. Its simple. The ring looks like a small key ring. The pressure release has a 1/8 inch diameter pin in the middle that the ring attaches to.

It comes with one hose and one connecter. that works with the pressurized mini kegs you can get from new castle or heiniken kegs. You do need the conversion lot for no pressurized kegs and the co2 canisters.it does have an included area for that as well.

The unit is basically complete. The tap handles are included and are generic black plastic. The hex nuts to connect to the keg coupler are included also. The hex nuts are the type for connecting to a commercial keg. If you homebrew you will have to switch this connection out for the type of keg/connection you use.

The beer line has a nut that is pre-attached that screws on to the coupler that attaches to a standard sized American beer keg. This link may help explain it better visually. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uBwEDDoYY0 I hope this helps.

You can have one keg tapped or two. You can't have two kegs set up at different pressures though. That would require a second regulator.

I updated the keg link in the posting so if it did not work the first time is should this time. And the kegerator is called the K209B-2 Kegerator from Kegco if you need to look it up for some reason.

Tap is permanently installed in the keg. You just pull it out to pour. So no, you do not tap this the same tap/pump as a regular sized keg as there is no need to do so. There is no need for a pump as it is gravity draining.

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

Let it LEAK! it needs to vent off CO2 and if you prevent that it could pressurize and rupture the keg. So no gasket and ensure the two small slits in the keg lid collar are clear. When sanitizing the keg, hold it upside down and if water leaks out you are good to go.

You will need a keg ball lock connector to connect to this fitting. The lock connector has a barbed fitting that allows it to be connected with hose to the regulator itself. Disconnect OUT (LIquid) Ball Lock, Barbed End

It does not need a tap. It has one integrated into the keg. And, as an aside, it is a wild party add-on, highly recommended.

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.

We've got a nice place here in town that also has the 5 L minikegs. Warsteiner, Einbecker, Paulaner, etc. But I've noticed that they are rather different design of keg than the heineken. Do those gravity pour mini kegs still work in the BeerTender?I can't really stomach heineken, but if these other minikegs will work in it I'm sold.

I have a 15.5 gallon keg with the top cut off. I have brewed a 12 gallon batch in it before with a 13 gallon start volume, had no issues at all. No flexing etc.

I have the same problem on one I received a week ago. The tap is over sized a bit. I corected the problem with a wrap of heavy aluminum foil and then several wraps w/ teflon tape. It holds pretty well for now, when I have a chance I will add a nut to the inside to make sure it won't slip out. I want to make beer, not deal with the hassle of return...

I have the kit and I am using in all the kegs besides Heineken and Newcastle (these don't require the kit, they are ready to use without it) Basically you need to remove the top plug and insert the tube that comes with the kit. It takes a while to figure out how it works but when you get used to you will enjoy it. You can use it in commercial mini kegs and even take one empty keg to favorite micro brewer and fill it up with what you like. It is a must have kit.

no u theres no tube that runs up to the tap. I bought an edgestar optional co2 mini keg tap for home brew, edgestar sells a kegerator for mini kegs and to be honest I haven't used it yet, bcuz i'm lagering sum beer and wont be ready for at least two months. I was advised to trim 3/4" from the tube provided with the kit so it doesn't suck up the trub, and probably have to force carbonate the beer as well. I hope some of this helps
