So if my coupler has the duck bill valve installed and I want to depressurize my keg am I able to do it with that valve installed? I imagine if I loosen that nut it will loosen the valve and allow CO2 to escape out from around the valve
Exactly. Sometimes the duckbill valve has a washer type flange to it that will loose its seal when the nut on the coupler's gas inlet port is loosened.
It will work best to balance the pressure and provide a purge to each bottle. If you can make it work with your pressurised keg idea, great, but it sounds like you're making the keg do what the cylinder already does. If you find this works to save you gas and money, then perfect!
Great product 🎉🎉🎉 fermenting in a kegerator is killing my limited garage space, and now problem solved. What’s more beautiful is now I can carry my kegs to anywhere and serve them icy cold, regardless the sizes of them. Absolutely genius!!!
Thank you for this awesome video, Daniel and Jack! The Kegmate looks like a game-changer for anyone who loves serving fresh beer effortlessly. Last week, I bought a keg tap from Mumm Products, and it is fantastic and super easy to use.
@@PeterPavlovic-gl8lx That was my problem with the old chubby you really needed a keg washer (more expense) to clean it properly, where a all rounder was easy to clean by hand.
Nice work Peter! Toatally agree. Keg Washers make home brewery life so much more enjoyable because cleaning equipment and kegs becomes a background activity. Anyone who has a few ball lock kegs and other ball lock equipment should get one. They aren't expensive and they do the work of cleaning for you while you do other things. Easy!
Do you happen to know what is the highest Volume of Carbon Dioxide you can get from a soda stream or how you can estimate it or even test it for cheap.
you can try using MFL disconnects with push-in fittings like these if you want to make things easier. www.kegking.com.au/female-adaptor-5-16-tube-x-7-16-20-unf-v-type.html
I made my first brew in 1975 in an earthenware bowl with a teatowel over it. Unsurprisingly, it was terrible! Second brew onwards I've used a barrel fermenter like the one on the right. Currently, the consumables cost comes out at about $1.50 per litre. Doesn't take long to recoup capital costs at that price!
I get my small bottles filled for $10 with exchange and the larger cylinders can be purchased but they have a lifespan. A date is stamped , so they only last so many years and you have to buy a new one. Not only that, you can't get all the gas out because the pressure drops and you are left with about 25% or so unusable. I did the math and the small bottles might be slightly more expensive but they don't expire. If you factor in the cost of the larger cylinders they end up being more expensive overall. In the small cylinders you can get most of the gas out and I weighed mine full and empty and I am getting most of the gas out. So I scrapped the idea and just have 3 small bottles and refill them all at once every few months. I don't have to buy the adapter hose and find a place to hide a large cylinder in my kitchen and drill holes to route the tubing to my soda stream.
Hi Jeff. That's not accurate. Where we are located the larger cylinders are a massive savings. The cylinders have to be purchased and are already full on the first go, but there after, if you for some reason or another want keep the cylinder and have it refilled after you empty it you can do so for 10 years from the test stamp date on an AS2030 cylinder with an RPV installed in the valve. ALL the filled gas can be expelled from the cylinder. If your draft system or carbonation unit is working properly, the entire weight of the gas will be dispensed. So with our cylinder, the sizes are 0.9 2.6 and 6 kilo. These are the weights of the gas itself that the cylinder can hold inside. Beyond this, most customer will simply just swap their empty cylinder for a full one at any of these locations: www.kegking.com.au/retailers/ This way they only pay the fill price, currently $29 AUD for 2.6kilo, and as long as they have a cylinder to drop off, they'll be able swap for a full cylinder far beyond the 10 years of life of the original cylinder.
Jeff, thanx for sharing that! I've been refilling the stock Sodastream bottle for a few years now, no problems. Just last week (July ) I took it in and they said it's better to CHILL the bottle before refilling? What is the truth about that? Actually one guy at the store said it doesn't matter, but another employee insisted I leave the bottle with them to refrigerate then fill. Of course I FORGOT to pick it up and now I want to fix a drink and NO SODA! Sometimes it seems that Murphy's Law is the ONLY law that applies to me! :P
Yes. Absolutely. And we improved the Chubby since this video and now offer the Chubby Apollo. There's even a stainless steel lid option for it: Chubby Apollo: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JWiVqJ_Fnig.htmlsi=E7Thomzx47q5pXn- SS LID OPTION: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xAhGw-oJv_s.htmlsi=Tb-HJRCspnKNiC-a

I would love this but outside of home brew applications, are macro brews going to make 10L kegs? Historically, the USA does not deviate from standard kegs, bottles or cans. On occassion you can find 5L but its Heineken pre-pressured.
We have more beverage makers already packaging in these in Australia and it isn't just beer, it's juice, wine, cocktails and more. Prosecco and Rose come to mind as pretty popular in their 10L varieties. Our market down under tends to embrace packaging options faster than the US industries. We moved to screw caps and bagged boxes for wines decades ago now and never looked back so where Americans still tend to see these options as an indication of low quality, Australians have no qualm about packing their $140 dollar bottles of wine in a screw top bottle. When it comes down to it, it's all about keeping the O2 out and providing the beverage producer with affordable options to reach a wider market. That said, do you remember Bud Light/Coors Light Party Balls in the US? The 10L keg dispenses better, is easier to carry and equally as fun!
I have been wanting something like this since purchasing my Apollo Stainless when they first arrived, thank you. Is it possible to fit a cooling coil to this lid? Is there space to drill it to fit the coil?
Used a chubby before, in my opinion they aren't as good as the all rounder so I went that route, but at least this version now has some of the all rounder features that make it so easy to use and clean that it should have had originally.
Thanks a million, My 20 pound cylinder Co2 at a professional medical gas and oxygen provider, hooked up, but does not carbonate only slightly 1/5, regardless of how many times and water temperature, even got another sodastrem Terra ,and nothing, tank went through quality and security control Any Suggestions, will appreciate lots of health good weekend
I don't think it is the tank or gas pressure, it is the soda stream. Currently my stopped working properly. I get lots of gas bubbling into the water but none of it stays in. It was working good a few weeks ago. I think one of the gaskets is not sealing and all the CO2 is going to the atmosphere. There is a gasket that the water bottle fits around and another yellow gasket on the cylinder side. They do sell an older soda stream and you have to screw your water bottle onto it and there is a rubber seat on the top and I think this makes a better seal than the quick slide on bottle that makes the seal on the sides of the bottle. I think that is my problem because I do feel some gas blowing at my water bottle end.
