PET Bottle Dispensing Pump

More Info

This mini hand pump fits on any PET soda bottle, and can be used for everything from dispensing beer with air to cleaning draft systems with line cleaner.

To clean your kegerator or keezer beer lines lines, just fill your PET soda bottle with diluted BLC cleaner, attach your beer ball lock to the top ball lock, and pump to force cleaner through the lines and out the faucet. Let lines soak for 30 minutes with BLC in them before rinsing with warm water.

One Mini Yellow Hand Pump (not sold separately)

One 12″ 5/16″ EvaBarrier Tubing

FermZilla Owners – Upgrade to Tri Clamp Lid for – on sale for $14.99, HALF OFF

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.

Do you need a pump to transfer your fermented beer or wine?

It has a maximum flow of 1.2 gallons per minute, and will lift fluids up to 12½’ (although the higher the lift, the less gallons per minute).  Can generate up to 90 PSI pressure and 5″ of suction.  A 110 volt transformer is included so you can plug this in anywhere.

Hose clamps are recommended for secure leak free tubing connection when pumping, our item D41 works well. Use with our 24″ Siphon Tube E77 along with the E04 tubing for your own transfer system. Flexible vibration dampening feet with screw holes let you mount this without worrying about excess rattling. The pump body is 6½” long, 3″ wide, with an overall power cord length of 7′.

Not for hot wort, recommended maximum fluid temperature is 135° F. Not for solutions with debris like seeds, whole hop particles, or grape skins which can clog the pump.

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

The BlowTie is a diaphragm based adjustable spunding valve used to release pressure from kegs and other pressure vessels. It features a usable range of 4 to 15 PSI, and the diaphragm construction means it has a wider pressure range than spring based spundling valves. This unit can be easily disassembled for cleaning using a phillips head screw driver. Accuracy of the gauge is plus or minus 2 PSI.

 

A Spunding Valve allows you to ferment under pressure, naturally and precisely carbonate in the keg, fix over-carbonated beers and lots more. See: Build a Spunding Valve – for loads of information on building and using a Spunding Valve.

KegLand TC Breakdown Pump – on sale for… $129.99!

KegLand TC Breakdown Pump

KegLand TC Breakdown Pump from William’s Brewing

More Info

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

The KegLand TC Breakdown pump features a type 304 stainless head held on with a 3” Tri Clamp, making it easy to service and remove any spent grain or hop material that may cause a blockage. It features an inline design with 1/2” straight threads on the inlet and outlet for easy integration into your brewing system, and the Tri Clamp head allows the head to be set at any angle, making it even easier to integrate into your system.

A corny keg compatible PRV valve with pull ring is screwed into the head so you can quickly perge the head to eliminate cavitation, and also acts as a safety valve so you cannot over pressurize your system. Best of all, you can replace it if needed with any corny compatible relief valve.

This 25 watt pump runs on 110 volts, and will pump up to 5 gallons per minute to a height of 11 feet. This 5 gallon per minute performance is based on minimal lift, and keep in mind the higher you pump, the less gallons per minute.

This pump is not self priming, which means you have to flood the head of the pump before starting.

The Top Draw Pick Up Tube From William’s Brewing – on sale for… $9.99

The Top Draw Beer Pickup Tube from William’s Brewing!

More Info

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

Do you want to drink the clearest beer possible from your keg as quickly as possible? The Top Draw® Beer Pick Up Tube fits any ball or pin lock keg, and replaces the rigid stainless dip tube with a stainless float pick up on a 23″ food grade silicone hose. This flexible hose holds a 1″ stainless beer pickup tube which is held 1″ below the surface of the beer by the float. As the level of the beer in the keg drops, the pick up tube remains 1″ below the surface, always drawing the clearest beer all the way until empty. The stainless float ball itself is 1.75″ in diameter.

Installs in a couple minutes – just unscrew the beer post on your ball lock keg, insert the provided short pick up tube, and attach the silicone tubing to the underside of the tube. Now dangle the hole assembly in the keg and you are done. For shorter kegs, cut the silicone tube to length.

If you carbonate by C02 injection, you can also convert your keg to one that carbonates quicker, and clears faster. To do this (Cornelius threaded post kegs only), unscrew both posts and remove both dip tubes. Then on the IN side of the keg, install the long beer pickup tube and screw on the GAS side fitting (the one with a notch on the base nut). Then on the OUT side of the keg, install the Top Draw® Dip Tube, and screw on the BEER side fitting (the one without a notch in the base nut). Now when you attach the C02 to carbonate, it will bubble up from the bottom of the keg, carbonating quicker. When you dispense, the floating dip tube will make sure you get only the clearest beer from near the surface.

The only downside to this switch is your gas line is connected to a beer dip tube, and if the pressure in your gas line drops to less than the pressure in the keg, your gas line will fill with beer. This can be prevented with a ball or pin lock check valve like our items P77 and P78, or with an in line check valve like our item D37.

Includes 22″ of tubing, 304 grade stainless float with attached pickup tube, and short replacement stainless beer dip tube with seating O ring.

 

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.

  • This is on sale for just $9.99. That’s a whopping 33% off list.
  • Shipping is free or reasonably priced flat rate to addresses in the contiguous US depending on your order size for most items.

CO2 Tank Leak Stopper from William’s Brewing

C02 Tank Leak Stopper from William’s Brewing

More Info

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

This brass fitting will convert your C02 tank valve into a valve with a permanent sealing O ring. No more need to buy fiber or plastic tank sealing washers.

Installs in any CGA-320 C02 valve that has female threads in the center of the outlet. Use a 5/32″ hex key to screw this in.

Important: Before ordering, check to see if the C02 valve’s outlet hole on your cylinder has female threads. If it does this will work, if the hole is smooth without threads, this will not fit.

From HBF: Make sure the components you use are compatible and rated for your intended application.  Contact manufacturer with questions about suitability or a specific application.  Always read and follow manufacturer directions.

 

C02 Tank Leak Stopper

Also from William’s Find and Fix CO2 Regulator Leaks

We get a lot of people contacting us when trying to track down a C02 gas leak in their draft systems, and wondering how to test their regulator to make sure it is not leaking C02. This little knurled shut off cap is the answer. This 1/4″ female flare shut off cap features a sealing O ring, and knurling so you can tighten it without tools. Great for shutting off an unwanted 1/4″ male flare gas line.

Also is a good tool to use if you suspect your regulator is leaking gas. See the above picture for details on how to do this.

The KegLand Bucket Blaster will clean kegs, carboys, and fermenters with a steady stream of cleanser or sanitizer while you are free to do other things. Just set up the 3 1/2 bucket basin and fill with your sanitizer or cleanser solution, set a keg or carboy over the jet, and plug in to let the pump continuously rinse. Includes gas and beer ball lock disconnects with tubing so you can hook up a keg and have it continuously rinsed.

Holiday Ale Kit Blowout (ends 12/21)

From William’s Brewing: “Our annual William’s Holiday Ale is now available. This has been a crowd pleaser since 1994, and is a gently hopped honey brown ale with hints of orange peel and clove.”

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

Since 1994, we have produced a spiced Holiday Ale every year for the Fall and Winter Holiday seasons. The current kit is based on a formulation we first perfected in 1999, and by popular demand, we have settled on this formulation ever since. A spiced honey brown ale, our Holiday Ale is spiced with orange peel, allspice and other spices. The spices balance the sweetness of the honey, and the resulting brown ale has a rich honey malt character and delicate bitterness.

Alcohol: 5.8%, IBU’s 35 Includes 9 lbs. of our blended malt extract and honey, mixed spices, flavoring hops, 125 ml of liquid ale yeast, and corn sugar for carbonation. Makes 5 gallons with a starting gravity of at least 1.058

  • This is an annual, limited edition kit. When they’re gone, they’re gone.
  • These are on sale from $24.25 (no yeast options) that’s a whopping 46% discount.
  • Shipping is free or reasonably priced flat rate to addresses in the contiguous US depending on your order size for most items.
