Are you seeking crystal-clear beer right from the tap? Introducing the FLOTit 2.0 Floating Dip Tube, your solution for filtering out hop particles before they enter your beer lines. This device features a compact stainless steel float, measuring just 1½ inches in diameter!

Setting up the FLOTit 2.0 is quick and easy: simply detach the beer post from your ball lock keg, remove the existing long dip tube, and replace it with the shorter tube provided. Next, connect the silicone tubing to the tube’s underside. Submerge the entire setup in the keg and trim the tubing to allow the float to sit at the keg’s bottom.

The package comes complete with a 22-inch silicone tube, a dip tube adapter, a 304-grade stainless steel float equipped with a stainless mesh filter, and additional replacement seal gaskets for the mesh filter.

Check out our In Depth Hands on Review of FLOTit 2.0

My explanation of how this works…

When we carbonate a keg, pressure is being applied to the keg from the top, via the head space. Beer at the top carbonates first. That carbonation works it’s way down the keg. I’m sure there’s also some movement in the keg that helps to mix things up and distribute carbonation. But just sitting there, I think that mixing is a slow process. However it all works, practically speaking, the beer at the top carbonates more quickly compared to the beer at the bottom. This allows you to serve from the top accessing the more carbonated portion of the keg. It’s also a benefit for clarity because trub settles out heading downward. You can see this stratification in a glass carboy. As the beer starts to clear, the top clears first. I don’t think if this is exactly accurate, but I picture carbonation happening with the same sort of stratification until the beer reaches equilibrium and is equally carbonated throughout.

Announcing: Uni Gas Dip Tube from Homebrewer Labs – increase keg capacity!

UNI Dip Tube

UNI Dip Tube by Homebrewer Labs

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

This food grade silicone and stainless gas dip tube fits all ball and pin lock kegs, and does not require an O ring to seal.

Best of all, by being only 3/4 of an inch long, it increases the headspace in your keg, so you are less likely to have beer come up the gas side and into your lines. Fill your kegs more and reduce headspace with this little part.


 

William’s Says… “Increase Keg Capacity… With the Uni Gas Dip Tube from Homebrewer Labs. Silicone and stainless, this ¾” long gas dip tube fits all kegs, and increases keg capacity by allowing higher fills. By increasing capacity, you also reduce the amount of air in contact with your beer.”

My explanation of how this works…

When we carbonate a keg, pressure is being applied to the keg from the top, via the head space. Beer at the top carbonates first. That carbonation works it’s way down the keg. I’m sure there’s also some movement in the keg that helps to mix things up and distribute carbonation. But just sitting there, I think that mixing is a slow process. However it all works, practically speaking, the beer at the top carbonates more quickly compared to the beer at the bottom. This allows you to serve from the top accessing the more carbonated portion of the keg. It’s also a benefit for clarity because trub settles out heading downward. You can see this stratification in a glass carboy. As the beer starts to clear, the top clears first. I don’t think if this is exactly accurate, but I picture carbonation happening with the same sort of stratification until the beer reaches equilibrium and is equally carbonated throughout.
