Tapcooler Counter Pressure Bottle Filler for Forward Sealing Faucets
More Info
Highlighted Features
Fill bottles of beer, directly from your tap/faucet with this innovative counter pressure filler.
Improves upon standard counter pressure fillers, as it plugs DIRECTLY into your draft system faucet (tap). Most solutions require you to hook up a separate liquid line, which is not something standard draft systems have setup and requires additional prep (i.e. more time). With the Tapcooler, you can have it setup and ready to go in less than a minute!
Connecting your CO2 line is also a snap. You can either hook up directly with a 3/16 in. push-fit line, or connect your line to the included barb fitting.
With the Tapcooler design, your beer AND CO2 are filled from the bottom of the bottle through the telescoping bottle connection tube. First CO2 flows down into the bottom of the bottle to flush from the bottom up. Next you open the tap and beer flows down the same tube, filling from the bottom up. The result is a more effective purging of oxygen and little to no foam during the filling process.
The filler features a push button CO2 purge valve which allows you to purge the bottle of oxygen before & after filling. It also includes an adjustable pressure relief valve, giving you the ability to change the filling speed. The pressure relief valve also acts as an overflow port for excess beer/foam to escape when filling.

Clean kegerator lines are a key part of serving delicious beer. Bacteria and mineral build in lines can cause off flavors, quick loss of head, under-carbonated beer due to rapid co2 loss and lack of legs forming on the inside of your beer glass.
That recommendation is for a commercial operation. What about homebrewers? We serve far fewer beer on our kegerators, but on the other hand, we can have been on tap and in lines 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Considering all of this, my recommendation is to clean home kegerator beer lines every 1 to 2 months.
New version gets rid of bad performance: compared to other brand single-stage keg charger, this mini keg charger regulator will buffer and stabilize the pressure transferring speed to prevent the gauge damage caused by sudden high pressure, the pressure holding performance can be comparable to the dual-stage mini keg charger! compared to traditional keg charger without pressure gauge and adjustment knob, this mini regulator allows you to read pressure clearly and set a suitable carbonated value.
Anti-damage design and pressure adjustment knob safety design: there is a built-in metal thread ring in the mini co2 regulator bottom to prevent the bottom from being worn and damaged by the installation turning. there is a pressure adjustment knob on the top of the mini keg regulator, you can decrease pressure value by turning the pressure adjustment knob towards DECREASE direction during working process to keep user and gauge safe.
No leaks and quality material: the ball lock tip is designed with a sealing o-ring to guarantee a tight connection between ball lock and brass connector, which will avoid the gas leaks effectively. we also provide a spare ball lock tip white sealing washer for replacement. this mini keg charger is made of anodised aluminium, not easy to get rusted, smooth body is easy to wipe out to clean.
A useful lever wrench for installation: mini keg co2 regulator is easy to install for using. install a small co2 bottle to the regulator bottom first, fix the brass connector to the regulator by using and turning lever wrench clockwise secondly, then connect the gas ball lock to the co2 regulator and attach this keg charger kit to your beer keg, set your carbonated pressure by pressure adjustment knob finally. turning the adjustment knob towards INCREASE means that you are turning on keg charge
Portable and perfect for being used at various activities: this mini and compact mini keg regulator is compatible with 16g cartridge, can be applied to 2L, 3.6L, 5L beer growler keg, allows you to dispense beer, cold brew coffee, soda water, iced tea on barbecue, beach, lake, holiday parties, and other outdoor events. no need to take the large system co2 tank, this light and small beer carbonation equipment lets you enjoy tasty drinking anytime and anywhere.
Use to serve your keg of homebrew on the go or as a backup in case you run out of CO2. The good thing about this style of regulator as compared to the handheld injector style is that you can actually set a pressure and forget it.

A two pressure regulator gives you the ability to keep kegs at different pressures. This is a requirement to maintain two distinct carbonation levels. It’s also handy if you want to force carbonate a keg more quickly, at a higher pressure, while maintaining your standard serving pressure on a keg that’s already being served or if you want to have a utility line for purging kegs and such.

A leaky keg can be an issue, a big issue. That nice, full CO2 tank can go away in short order. It’s frustrating, costly and inconvenient. This post should help you them and fix them.
CO2 manifolds allow you to feed multiple kegs off one co2 regulator. Things to look for in a capable manifold are shut-off valves for each trunk and check valves. Check valves makes sure flow goes the right directly. This is important for CO2 manifolds because differences in pressure make it possible for liquid to back flow through gas lines.
Keg Connection has an extensive lineup of CO2 manifolds. They sport check valves, MFL barbs (choose from 1/4″ or 5/16″) and ball valves for each run. the body is crafted from extruded aluminum. These are also tested for leaks. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 way configurations are available
This particular model has MFL ball valves. You can also choose and MFL inlet port. Because you can choose MFL/flare for all connections, that means you can easily convert it to DuoTight. See my post on putting together a DuoTight Manifold
For whatever reason MFL equipped manifolds are harder to find.
For a limited time Keg Connection has their entire lineup marked down a whopping 30%. They say these are the lowest prices of the year.
Shipping is a flat fee no matter how much you order to addressed in the contiguous US.
As of this posting, Keg Connection is offering race track style ball lock kegs for just $25 when you put together a cart of $150 or more.
The full retail price of $50 counts towards the $150, so add one of these to your cart and at least $100 of additional gear and the price will automatically drop to $25.
These is a stellar deal!

For the most part, checking for keg liquid and CO2 leaks is pretty straightforward. Is beer leaking? Then you’ve got a liquid leak. Is there six inches of beer in your kegerator? That one’s really easy to spot. If beer is shooting out like a geyser, you’ve got a… fast leak. 🙂
For kegerator CO2 leaks, it’s a generally a little more work, but still pretty easy… spray everything with Star San solution (diluted of course) and look for bubbles.

NukaTap Beer Faucet
There are several different beer faucets to choose from when equipping your keezer. The most basic type differentiation is forward sealing versus rear sealing. The rear sealing are the most common type you will find in bars, with a sliding piston visible that comes out through the front of the faucet. Those faucets don’t do well unless you have a continuous flow of beer like is found in a bar. Don’t fool yourself into thinking you pour a lot of beer so the rearward sealing faucets will be fine. They’ll gum up and stick and you’ll be cursing that decision! So the popular homebrew faucets are forward sealing.
The long-time favorite forward sealing faucet for homebrewers was the Perlick brand, but they were expensive. Kegland introduced Intertap – Hands on Review – with a design variation of the forward sealing faucet and a more affordable price. Now Kegland has improved on their Intertap design with the new Nukatap faucet. As everything I’ve tried/researched from Kegland, they take a product and then engineer specific improvements to it- either to make it available at a lower cost or for specific improved homebrew functions.
Limited Time Deal, Save with coupon (this ends 12/16)!
William’s Brewing is discounting all orders with very few exceptions by up to $90 as part of their Holiday Sale. Use coupons above to get the deal.
With the Nukatap, Kegland focused on improving/reducing the propensity of beer to foam while being poured. Beer foaming is simply the act of dissolved CO2 coming out of the beer and then converting to gas at the surface of your beer. Cold beer can hold more CO2 than warm beer, so as carbonated beer warms, it causes CO2 to come out of solution and thus create foam. Similarly, beer under pressure can hold more CO2 than beer that is not under pressure. So as beer goes from the pressurized keg and into your unpressurized glass, this also causes CO2 to come out of solution and create foam.
Nukatap on Left, Intertap on RightNukatap on Right, Perlick on Left
The first design action Kegland did for Nukatap was on the sealing mechanism. One big challenge at fighting beer foam is how to get the beer around the sealing mechanism inside the faucet. Perlick faucets use a ball to seal and shut off the flow. As beer passes by the ball, the flow creates a low pressure zone on the backside of the ball, and thus beer goes from high pressure to low inside the faucet, creating an opportunity to foam. Intertap faucets use a football-shaped shuttle inside the faucet. This shape is less prone to the low pressure zone like a sphere has. Nukatap has a variation on the Intertap football shape, and Kegland kept tweaking it to keep the flow calm as it passed around the sealing shuttle inside. The shape ended up looking like an old-school atom bomb, and hence the “Nuke tap” name was born.
Check Current Pricing and Availability, Review Continues Below:
NukaTap Faucets come in three variations. Stainless, Stealth (Matte Black) and Flow Control. All feature stainless steel construction, forward seal design and all the other NukaTap innovations.
