Hands on Review: Growler Sized Ball Lock Keg by Kegland!

Updated: October 18, 2024

Kegland Ball Lock Growler Keg!

I like growlers. I just like them. I have a lot of different designs ranging from basic glass and PET growlers to featured-filled mini kegs, vacuum insulated models, ceramic growlers and more.

As a growler-enthusiast… I have to say I’ve been waiting this thing to be made. Kegland’s KL20893 is a growler sized ball lock keg.

Because it’s a ball lock keg, it works with most existing ball lock keg parts and accessories.

 

A look at the top. This has a nice easy to hold strap handle. As you can see it sports a standard size keg lid.  To my knowledge this is the smallest available ball lock keg.A closer look at the handle and lid. This lid (like most ball lock style lids) is equipped with a manual PRV.  Generally speaking… Both Ball Lock and Pin Lock style lids are the same dimension and are interchangeable.  You can use a Ball Lock Lid on a Pin Lock Keg and vice versa.  A big difference are the PRV (pressure relief valve) functions between the two styles.  Both have automatic safety PRV valves.  That is, if the pressure gets too high, both will automatically vent for safety reasons.  The difference is in manual PRV functionality.  Ball Lock Keg lids have a pull ring that allows you to manually vent the keg as you’d like.  You may want to do that for the purpose of removing the keg lid or to vent excess pressure in an attempt to get down to a lower pressure. See: my post comparing ball lock and pin lock kegs – Jump Section on Lids – All that to say… Manual PRV = good.

RAPT Fermentation Chamber

RAPT Temperature Controlled Fermentation Chamber

More Info

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

Many home made products can greatly be improved with perfect temperature control. The Rapt Temperature Controlled Fermentation Chamber gives you an efficient means of setting, monitoring and controlling temperature, which is perfect for beer and wine making, salami making, leavening bread, fermenting yogurt, kombucha, germinating seeds, growing sprouts, kimchi, sauerkraut, olives, cheese, making spirit washes, mushroom growing, and more. Accurate temp control is the key to getting reliable and repeatable results.

The control panel comes complete with an integrated color TFT screen, the integrated secondary regulator that can be used to regulate gas into the chamber with our Inline Regulator with an integrated gauge or alternatively this can be switched over to the Gauge integrated BlowTie unit to regulate residual pressure in your fermenter. The 4 button color display conveniently shows a log of historic temperature graphs, allows you to start, set/stop temperature profiles and gives you access to other critical information for that particular fermentation.

The top of the unit also has room to install an optional item C16 Spunding Valve and or item C11 Mini Regulator, so you can ferment under pressure and not cut any holes in the unit for hoses. See Kee’s video below for more on this.

This multi purpose chamber can also be used as a kegerator. In particularly cold climates where the ambient temp is below zero, this chamber can warm your kegs and prevent them from freezing. This chamber also has a higher keg storage capacity than a conventional kegerator that takes up the same footprint. This unit can hold four 5 gallon Ball lock kegs on the floor and has enough headroom that you can also fit another layer of four 2½ gallon ball lock size kegs above this. A provision for keg faucets is not included, so you would have to drill holes in the door if you decided to use this as a tall kegerator.

What is RAPT?

RAPT is a dedicated Internet of Things (IOT) Hub for fermentation logging and control. It’s a free service whereby any RAPT enabled product can both log and store data to the hub where you can conveniently access this data. The RAPT hub can also allow you to control your devices remotely giving you control of the device regardless of where you are.

For more information on the portal, and how to create a free account, click HERE.

The RAPT portal enables you to make complex temperature profiles that involve different temperature settings over time. This means you can start/run a temperature profile that is fully automated, and you can also use the app to monitor and or change a temperature setting remotely. It even interfaces with the RAPT Pill floating hydrometer to give you real time specific gravity readings remotely. Note that the KegLand RAPT Pill hydrometer is currently not available in the USA, but can be ordered for USA delivery through AliExpress.

The RAPT Chamber is not compatible with the Barron Tilt Bluetooth Hydrometer, although you can of course still use a Tilt with this, it will just not interface with the RAPT portal.

Specifications:

  • Integrated Heating: 50watt Heating Power
  • Cooling Capacity: 300watt Cooling Power

Why buy this over a glycol chiller?

Typically in the past, some customers have needed to resort to glycol chillers to chill fermenters but this represents several issues:

1. Glycol chillers often require a very cold liquid to enter into a fermenter causing an excessively cold part in the fermenter core.

2. Glycol chillers consume significant amounts of power and in most instances more than double what the RAPT chamber would consume.

3. Glycol chillers often result in spilling sticky glycol especially when hoses are connected and disconnected to the fermenter.

4. Glycol chillers generally require penetrations through the walls/lid of the fermenter making the fermenter less sanitary and requiring more cleaning.

5. Many glycol chillers and fermenter combinations do not have sufficient power or are not well enough insulated to cool to sub-zero temperatures. So crash chilling is not possible. This is a significant compromise to a temperature-controlled solution and also results in less ability to clarify the finished beer.


 

  • When these were introduced they sold for $1,499. As of this update they’ve dropped $200 to $1,299.
  • Scheduled truck delivery is also free to addresses in the contiguous US depending on your order size for most items.

MoreBeer 2,000 mL Erlenmeyer Flask – $19.99 + Free Ship Eligible, Limited Availability, Matches 2020 Deal

Erlenmeyer Flask - 2000 mL Y430

2,000 mL/2 Liter Borosilicate Flask from MoreBeer for making yeast starters.

More Info

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

These Erlenmeyer flasks help the best brewers to make large yeast starters to get their beer fermenting fast. Large populations of active yeast help ensure a healthy fermentation, free of off flavors.  One of our favorite things about the Erlenmeyer flasks is that you can boil your starters directly in them!

Our large 2000ml Erlenmyer Flask is the ideal vessel to make a large yeast starter for 5 gallon lagers and high gravity brews. Because it is made from borosilicate glass you can move it from a boil on your gas stove into a cold water bath for cooling, without the risk of cracking. (We do not recommend the use of an electric element. If this cannot be avoided, we recommend using a larger pot as a hot water bath on the stove.) This means you can do the whole process in one container, keeping it simple and helping to reduce the risk of contamination when transferring from one container to another.

Recommended Process for Use of Flask:
Double Boiler Method

It is important for your safety to heat water in the flask with a heat source that distributes heat evenly. Our manufacturer has confirmed that direct heat to the glass can break down its integrity and break if the heat source doesn’t distribute evenly.

Morebeer! recommends using the “double boiler method.”  This process involves using a boiling water bath on the outside of the flask to heat up the water inside the flask.  All you need is a kettle 3 gallons or larger.  This process is much safer and efficient. If the flask should break or boil over, your kettle will be there to collect the contents, thus keeping your stove clean and keeping you away from potential harm.

Features

  • Massive 2L (2000mL) Capacity
  • Made from Borosilicate Glass
  • Fantastic price for a flask of this size
  • Produced for MoreBeer!
  • 6.5″ base 2.5″ top 10.75″H

Why make a yeast starter? (from our FAQ)
We build starters for 3 main reasons. First, to ensure yeast health. By making a starter 1-3 days in advance, you ensure that your yeast is healthy and strong and ready to do its job. Second, to create more yeast. By making the starter you will increase the cell count of the yeast, giving you a better chance of keeping bacteria’s and wild yeasts from fermenting your wort. Third, if you are making high gravity beers. If you are making a high gravity beer (1.060+) you will need more yeast to start the ferment faster. High gravity beers will also finish more completely when you pitch ample quantities of yeast.

In the lab world, these flasks are known as “Student Grade”. A great flask for making yeast starters!(Student grade is not the highest grade flasks and will have minor defects)

More About Zappa

These hops are far out, man! Named after Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Frank Zappa, this neomexicanus breed was first found in the mountains of New Mexico and later developed by CLS Farms. As wild and free as the music Frank composed, Zappa™ hops are tough to nail down with any singular description. Tropical fruit, pine, and citrus first come to mind, but descriptors such as passionfruit, mint, fresh, purple, savory, impulsive, and fruity pebbles have also been used in an attempt to capture the essence of Zappa™. Use for aroma, whirlpool, and dry hopping additions. Highly recommended for fruit-forward styles like hazy or milkshake IPAs, as well as fruited sours, pale ales, and wild or mixed-fermentation beers.

The control panel comes complete with an integrated color TFT screen, the integrated secondary regulator that can be used to regulate gas into the chamber with our Inline Regulator with an integrated gauge or alternatively this can be switched over to the Gauge integrated BlowTie unit to regulate residual pressure in your fermenter. The 4 button color display conveniently shows a log of historic temperature graphs, allows you to start, set/stop temperature profiles and gives you access to other critical information for that particular fermentation.

Why buy this over a glycol chiller?

Typically in the past, some customers have needed to resort to glycol chillers to chill fermenters but this represents several issues:

1. Glycol chillers often require a very cold liquid to enter into a fermenter causing an excessively cold part in the fermenter core.

2. Glycol chillers consume significant amounts of power and in most instances more than double what the RAPT chamber would consume.

3. Glycol chillers often result in spilling sticky glycol especially when hoses are connected and disconnected to the fermenter.

4. Glycol chillers generally require penetrations through the walls/lid of the fermenter making the fermenter less sanitary and requiring more cleaning.

5. Many glycol chillers and fermenter combinations do not have sufficient power or are not well enough insulated to cool to sub-zero temperatures. So crash chilling is not possible. This is a significant compromise to a temperature-controlled solution and also results in less ability to clarify the finished beer.


 

  • When these were introduced they sold for $1,499. As of this update they’ve dropped $200 to $1,299.
  • Scheduled truck delivery is also free to addresses in the contiguous US depending on your order size for most items.
  • As of this posting, William’s is discounting this by $200 when you buy 2 or more. That’s a total savings of $400 if you buy two.

MoreBeer 25′ Copper Immersion Wort Chiller – $74.99 + Free Ship Eligible, Limited Availability

Wort Chiller | Immersion Chiller | 25' x 3/8" Copper Tubing | Vinyl Tubing Included for Inlet/Outlet | Female Garden Hose Adapter WC20

25′ Immersion Wort Chiller from MoreBeer

More Info

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

In a traditional wort chiller, the coils rest on the bottom of the pot and the hot wort on top takes a very long time to reach them, making the entire process time consuming and inefficient. Our original, simple innovation for the Immersion Wort Chiller from MoreBeer! is to move the coils right to the top where the majority of the heat is. This promises to give you the fastest heat exchange possible, to cool your wort down more efficiently and to get your brew into the fermenter as quickly and cleanly as possible. There is also no need to stir during chilling which reduces contamination and allows your trub and spent hops to settle to the bottom of your kettle.

Some other key differences of our wort chillers. We solder the copper tubes together at the top of the chiller, out of wort, so that the whole unit retains its shape. Other chillers use hose clamps which is a less permanent, but much cheaper, solution. The connection feeds on our chillers our bent out down at an angle so that if there is any dripping at the copper/vinyl connection point it drips out of the kettle and not back into your beer. Also works perfect with a kettle that features a notched lid. Made in the USA in our metal shop.

Stats

  • 25 feet of 3/8 inch copper tubing
  • 8 feet of vinyl tubing at both the in and the out
  • Female garden hose fitting is included for easy adaptation to a garden hose.
  • 10″ diameter, 8″ to the top coil, 15″ to the bend to go over the lip of the kettle.

FermZilla Owners – Upgrade to Tri Clamp Lid for – on sale for $29

Tri-Clamp Pressure Lid for FermZilla

More Info

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

Upgrade your FermZilla All Rounder or Tri-Conical with the 2 Inch Tri-Clover Lid from KegLand. Add yeast, hops or even take samples from a wine thief from the top and not have to remove the entire lid. This particular lid was designed so you can dry hop without exposing the batch to oxygen by opening the lid. By using this lid in conjunction with the FermZilla 2″ Butterfly Valve and Hop Bong Kit, you would be able to purge CO2 into the tube and expel all the oxygen before adding hops.

Features:

2 x PCO1881 Male Ports – Recommended to be used with 1 x Red Ball Lock Cap (item C35) and 1 x Yellow Ball Lock Cap (item D80).

1 x Pressure Relief Valve Port – Includes Red 35psi Pressure Relief Valve

1 x 2 Inch Tri-Clover Ferrule

Undrilled Ports:

1 x Thermowell Port (8mm duotight x 1/4″ bulkhead) Suitable for 60cm Thermowell duotight Kit.

2 x Ice Water / Glycol Temp Twister Ports (9.5mm duotight x 1/2″ bulkheads).

Please Note: Temp Twister will need to be bent on a 20° Angle in order to fit on the curved lid and align vertically in the tank.

Also includes:

1 x KL23627 2 Inch Tri-Clover x PCO1881 Male Thread with PCO1881 Bottle Cap

1 x KL03322 2 Inch Tri-Clover Clamp

1 x KL03438 2 Inch Tri-Clover Beaded Silicone Seal

Important:

Release the pressure completely before opening the 2″ Tri-Clover.

Only use KegLand Red 35psi / 2.5 bar PRV or KegLand Yellow 17psi / 1.5bar PRV’s with this lid. Ensure they are cleaned and dried of sticky residue before each fermentation. Failure to do so could cause injury and void warranty.
