Help me Keg
I like bottles. I really do. I mostly brew belgian beers, and they seem to benefit from bottle conditioning.
But damn it, I have been brewing too much lately. Getting hold of more and more bottles has become a major pain in the ass.
So I reckon i need to get into kegging. Not for the belgians mind you, but the session beers would be good.
There are a few kegging discussions that showed up in the search, but they seem to be from a year or more ago.
My fermentation fridge fits two fermenters easy so I am sure i can fit one or more kegs in there as well (fridge is only for pilsner/lagers etc, so 10C max).
So...whats the best deal at the moment? Probably wont put taps on the fridge at this point so gun is fine.
Thanks guys!

Yeah I bought it, what a teasy prick.
Those sort of deals pop up every once and a while if your not in a rush.

So i can get the brewcraft starter kit (the two kegs + gun one) for $450. Seems hard to beat on price if i was putting it together myself.
Correct?

I'm in the same boat at the moment.
Best I can find is Brewers Coop at the moment:
2 cornies, regulator, plastic bronco tap, gas/liquid disconnects - around $340
Busy shopping for a fire ext conversion - will let you know what I find.

oh nice! Might need to revisit them. How much is their regulators? they said their corny's were $90. what did they tell you? :)
-

Cornies were $90 - cant recall the price of the regs. Website says around $82 but many prices dont appear current.
Good old Pressure Check - Grey Lynn (Cheers Barry). 3.5KG Fire Ext conversion incl. valve, fill and test is $150. #130 if it doesn't need a retest.
Kegging here I come!!!!

Cheers matey
yeah heard pressure check are the peeps to go to. pretty good prices!
yeah i hop around the brew shops in Auckland but do use BC quite a bit. I do like their incentive program :)
Will get my gear pretty soon i reckon. $500 for all the stuffs and a co2 bottle aint half bad

Just to clarify - I already have the fire ext so the charges there are to convert it for kegging.
-
-
fair enough. I've heard they have the best prices for converted ones anyway
-

PS Just spoke to chris. Their 3.5kg converted fire extinguisher is $200
