The manual with Krups say 30 days. I am lucky if mine last a week beforelasts a week before the beer is gone

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.

I've had it for a few months now and, from what i can see, there is no difference between when i bought it and today. You just need to store it in a 'cool dry place' and thats it. Also, i'm not even halfway through the bottle yet so i would expect to it to last to the end of this year.

Pretty much the same as any other growler out there. Once you introduce air (open and take a pint) the clock starts ticking. If you are looking for something to keep draft beer carbonated while you enjoy it for several days or a week, check out GrowlTap. It was originally called TapItCap which screws onto most glass growlers and you have a tap and CO2 hooked up to it. I love mine and it does a great job keeping beer fresh.

I take a full tablespoon per night; sometimes I forget to but based on this information I will keep a bottle in the frig for about 5 - 6 weeks. And it tastes just as fresh as when I opened it.

The gases are all inert gases and as long as the can doesn't lose pressurization (get smashed), there is no time limit. Also, I just read that if not disturbed the wine can be preserved for weeks and more. It also mentions fine oils and vinegars...makes sense.

It's dried, so it stays "fresh" for as long as you can keep it dry. I've had mine over a year and it's still great.

I believe it will be fine for a long time, as it is sealed in a way that does not allow any air to enter, which would be the cause of spoilage. If you use it every day, it should last 8 weeks.

It's not supposed to seal. The top of the keg has notches in it to allow it to breathe during the fermentation process. This is why it must be carbonated in the bottles �

I had the Tfal version. The compressor died just over 1-year. I loved it while it worked and got a lot of good use (maybe too much good use). Might check for comments on the Krups to see if there was any reports of compressor failure.I haven't had one now for 6 months. When last I checked, could still only get Heineken, Heineken Lite and Newcastle. All three taste very, very good on mini-tap. Lasts up to a month fresh, though I never had a 5L around long enough to verify this (might have had one for 5-6 days).Hope this helps.

I would say as long as you used it within a week. I force carbed a 5 gallon keg and we used this to dispense it over the course of 4 days and couldn't tell a difference in the beer we poured on day 1 compared to day 4. You can also use the regular BB gun CO2 canisters with this and put a dime in the bottom of the charger to make up for the difference in size. They go flat after a few hours since you aren't screwing them in tight, but they are also 25 cents versus a couple bucks.

I have had my bottle for a long time and it is still fresh. I think as long as you don't leave it open it will last a good while, I love it.

It has lasted in my fridge as long as overnight. It all depends on how low you press the disc/how much air you take out! Hope this helps!

There is an airtight cap so the soda remains as in a siphon and retains the gas. However it is best to consume it with 24 hours.

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.

it will last about 5 hours realistically. However in very hot weather your drink will still be at least cool.

I dont think it'd seal tight enough like a growler to keep it "fresh" as when you buy the beer. You may feel free to try it but i honestly think you'll have flat beer til you finish it!

Not sure on shelf life, but I've kept mine in the frig over a year and it is fine. Just make it is well sealed so it doesn't pick up other flavors. I have two fridges so I keep it with the beverages. Hope this helps some.
