William’s Brewing Home Beverage Ball Lock Kegging System – from $159.99 + Get $32.98 in Free Drinkware

Home Beverage System Ball Lock Kegging System from William’s Brewing


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

  • Save $20.00 over separate purchase prices without the C02 Cylinder
  • Save $30.00 over separate purchases prices with the optional aluminum C02 Cylinder

A high quality starter system with a single outlet C02 regulator. Includes a Two-Gauge Regulator, one new Ball-Lock NSF approved Keg, Gas Connector with ¼” threaded flared tubing to fit home and commercial keg adapters, Tap with threaded 4′ hose, and our illustrated instructions.  All components are new and of the highest commercial quality. Requires 27″ of clearance for the 5 gallon keg (pictured).  A full-featured system that can be added to later as your needs change.

Important Note: The optional 5 Pound C02 Tank is shipped empty for safety, and can be filled with C02 at any welding or fire extinguisher supply. Before ordering this option, check with your local fire extinguisher or welding supply, to make sure they will fill a cylinder they do not own (some welding suppliers only offer exchange C02 tanks, and will not fill one you bring in).

See our Sankey Ball Lock Coupler if you also want to be able to dispense an occasional commercial keg without disconnected or changing any lines.


Considering the fact that this includes a brand new ball lock keg and that William’s Brewing has economical tiered flat rate shipping, I think this is one of the best everyday values in kegging systems.  Prices start at $159.99.  Options are available to add on a sankey coupler and a CO2 tank.  William’s Brewing has generally great everyday prices, but this combo takes it a step further saving you an additional $20 to $30 vs buying components separately. Price, promotions and availability can change quickly.  Please note that product prices and availability are subject to change. Prices and availability were accurate at the time this this post was published; however, they may differ from those you see when you visit the product page.  Check the product page for current price, description and availability

Home Beverage System

Free Drinkware!  As of this posting, coupon code 40YEARS gets you a free pair of William’s Brewing Stainless Steel Anniversary Pints.  Those are a $32.98 value!  When you spend $99 or more at William’s Brewing.

Note that you do not need to add the pint glasses to your cart.  Just apply promo code 40YEARS and the free glasses will be added to your order.

Room Temperature Kegging – Kegging WITHOUT a Refrigerator or Freezer?

kegging no refrigerator

I periodically get questions along these lines… can I keg without a refrigerator?

Well, the answer is, sure you can.  But, as with many things, just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should.

Balancing an Un-chilled System

The warmer your beer is, the less apt it is to absorb CO2.  As temperature rises so does the pressure required to maintain carbonation.  Let’s say your storage area is your basement and it stays at about 64 degrees Fahrenheit and you want something like 2.2 volumes of carbonation.  A reasonable carbonation level for an American ale,  Considering this example, you’d need to keep your CO2 regulator set to about 18 PSI.  If you use 3/16″ ID tubing, you’d need somewhere between 6 and 12 feet of tubing [See: Step by Step Balancing Your Kegerator Draft System] to offset that pressure for a decent pour.  I haven’t tried it, but my gut feeling is you’d be closer to 12 feet if not more.  Lots of tubing.  If there’s much of a temperature differential between the bottom and top of the keg, it may result in CO2 coming out of solution in that long length of tubing, causing excessive foaming, even if your system is balanced.  This can happen even in a chilled kegerator [See: Kegerator Beer Line Temperatures & Reducing Foam with a Recirculating Fan] so it’s certainly a possibility for a room temperature setup.

Of course you can tweak this scenario with different numbers and maybe it looks better for you.



Temperature Swings = Bad Pours

If temperature varies in the spot that you’re keeping your un-refrigerated keg the setup will be even more temperamental especially at points when it’s warmer.  Something like.. It’s hot outside today, my beer is going to be all foam.
