Stainless Carbonation & Cleaning Cap – on sale for $7.99 at William’s Brewing

Stainless Carbonation & Cleaning Cap

Stainless Carbonation and Cleaning Cap from William’s Brewing

More Info

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

An all stainless male ball lock valve coupling cap that fits a 2 liter or smaller plastic soda bottle with a 28mm screw cap lid. This allows the 2 liter bottle to be charged with C02 from any female ball lock gas fitting (like our item D32 or D03 Gas Connector), carbonating the cold beverage in the bottle. Great for serving draft beer away from the keg. Also fits the Brewzilla in and out ports on the lid, and the Brewzilla Collection Jar ports for pressurizing the Brewzilla fermenter.

You can also fill this with sanitizing or line cleaning solution, put some ¼” tubing on the barb, and use it with a 2 liter PET bottle as a line cleaner for kegs and draft systems. To do this, fill the PET bottle 1/3 full of cleaning solution, screw on the cap with tubing affixed, and inject with C02 to pressurize. Then use a beer ball lock fitting with a ¼” hose attached and use this to rinse your beer faucet nozzle first, or use a piece of hose with two beer ball lock barbed fittings, and make a jumper to clean the beer side of kegs.

This has a integral hybrid ball lock post that will accept beer and gas lines. A tradeoff of this design means when you use a grey ball lock gas fitting to charge your bottle, the grey fitting will leak if you leave it on. This is designed to quickly charge with gas and then remove the gas ball lock fitting, it is not designed to have a gas line attached for any length of time. This works for its intended use, which is a quick charge with gas and then having the ability to attach a beer dispensing line with a black beer ball lock fitting. You can affix 1/4″ interior diameter beer tubing to the interior gas post which will serve as a beer pick up dip tube during dispensing if desired (order a foot or so of our item S31, 1/4″ beer tubing if you want to do this).

You can also purchase our P53 Gas Post for Corny Keg if you want a gas post on this fitting that will not leak gas when attached for a longer period, although this eliminates the ability to also attach a black beer side ball lock fitting.

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING: FOR USE ON PLASTIC SODA BOTTLES AND BREWZILLA ONLY, NEVER USE ON GLASS BOTTLES


Applications:

  • PET Bottles as Growlers: These are generally intended to convert 1L and 2L bottles to growlers.  Fill up a 1L or 2L PET bottle with your favorite homebrew.  Put one of these on (purge the headspace by squeezing if you want to) and then pressurize for transport.  This should help to reduce oxygen pickup and maintain carbonation levels.
  • Fine tune or rapidly carbonate beer: You can also use this cap to rapidly carbonate beer.  Same process as for transport, just set your regulator to the proper pressure and shake or agitate the PET bottle to help introduce CO2.  Or hook it up to CO2 and let it sit in you kegerator.
  • Draft Line Cleaning Projects:  I have developed three draft line cleaning projects using similar SS Caps – Build A Recirculating Draft Line Cleaning Pump | Mark II Keg and Carboy Cleaner Draft Line Cleaning Pump ConversionBuilding a Simple Ball Lock Draft Line Flushing Setup

Keg Lids With Hang Tab Lid – makes dry hopping easy – $16.99 via William’s Brewing Keg Parts Sale

Keg Lid With Hang Tab

Keg Lid With Hang Tab via William’s Brewing

More Info

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

New lid with a hang tab welded on the bottom for hanging our Keg Infuser Ball, Keg Infuser Tube, and other straining bags. This fits Cornelius, Firestone, and Spartanburg brand kegs with 3″ by 3 1/2” oval lids. Includes a integral pressure relief valve. Maximum pressure 120 PSI. Includes a lid sealing O ring.


 

  • Hang Tabs! Keg Lid With Hang Tab – Unique hang tab design makes it easy to dry hop in the keg.
  • Manual vs Automatic PRV:  “Automatic PRV: sounds better than “Manual PRV”, but in my opinion, the opposite is true.  Both styles, generally, automatically vent at a set pressure for safety reasons.  Manual PRVs at the ability to…. manually activate the PRV.  That allows you to easily vent your keg as needed.  A tool is required to vent lids without manual PRV valves.
  • Works with both pin and ball lock kegs: In most cases, Pin lock and ball lock cornelius style keg lids are interchangeable from a size perspective.  That means you can, generally speaking, put a pepsi/ball lock style (manual prv) lid on a coke/pin lock style (no manual prv) keg.
  • An upgrade to pin lock style lids: In my book, that’s a solid upgrade.  See: What’s the Difference Between Ball Lock Kegs and Pin Lock Kegs?

This is discounted to just $16.99 via Wlliam’s Brewing’s Keg Parts Sale. Note: Discounted price reflected at checkout. Shipping is free or reasonably priced flat rate to addresses in the contiguous US depending on your order size for most items

Today Only… Kegland Mini Kegs & Accessories Sale at William’s Brewing – 2 Liters to… 2.6 Gallons

kegland mini keg sale

Mini Kegs! from William’s Brewing

More Info

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

The KegLand Stainless Steel Mini Beer Kegs are specifically designed for home brewing/growler dispensing. They are suited to small batches and suited to people who want to fit them into their home refrigerators. You can naturally carbonate using priming sugars or force carbonate and serve your beer with the optional ball lock lid (item P07, see at right). They come with a silicone gasket sealed stainless threaded lid, so you can fill them with beer and let them naturally carbonate, or carbonate as needed with the optional P07 ball lock lid. You will be given a chance to buy this lid (you do not need a Ball Lock Lid for every keg) when you put this in your cart.

These fit into a standard domestic refrigerator. The optional Ball Lock lid for these kegs use a flexible silicone dip tube the kegs can also be dispensed on their side or upright. The flexible silicone dip tube of lid P07 is heavier than beer, and will sink to the bottom even if the kegs are on their side. Kegs are equipped with a 30 PSI relief valve, and have a maximum pressure of 45 PSI.

Kegland Mini Kegs use the gold standard acid bath electrolosis to pacify the 304 grade stainless steel making the more resistant to rust than any other mini keg on the market. These are the only mini keg that uses a special robotic technique to weld the kegs from the inside out. This means KegLand gets a superior welding finish that is more sanitary than any other mini keg available. Although there are many other mini kegs that come from China simply none have the quality and finish as the genuine KegLand minikegs.

Blichmann Engineering Beer Gun – on sale for $99

Blichmann Engineering Beergun

Blichmann Engineering Beergun

More Info

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

What is a BeerGun? It is an easy way to fill beer bottles with sediment-free carbonated beer from a kegging system without excessive foaming.

Beer foam is caused by a sudden change in pressure. Unlike awkward counter pressure fillers, the BeerGun does not pressurize the bottle to avoid a sudden change in pressure when filling, but instead relies on a very gradual reduction in pressure from keg pressure to the open air. By avoiding design features like ball valves and sharp bends in the flow path, the BeerGun gently reduces pressure on the carbonated beer as it flows through it, with the result being the cold carbonated beer that flows out has minimal foam, while still containing carbonation. A purge button behind the trigger lets you first flush the bottle with C02 before filling if desired to eliminate oxygen in the capped bottle.

What matters is the BeerGun is easy to use, and makes filling sediment-free beer bottles from a keg an easy job instead of a chore. For successful use, beer must be below 37° F. and beer bottles must also be cold.

To use the BeerGun, you will need a kegging system filled with carbonated cold beer and C02 regulator. Hook the included 10’ of beer hose up to your ball or pin-lock barbed beer keg fitting. Now provide 5’ or so of gas hose, and a Q12 hose barb (both not included) and screw it into the base of the BeerGun and attach the gas hose. Hook the other end of the gas hose to a spare hose barb on your regulator. Now pull the trigger to easily pour carbonated beer into bottles. Cap quickly to avoid carbonation loss, and you are done. The BeerGun includes beer hose, a brush for the barrel, gas hose and connector, ball lock beer connector for your keg, and detailed instructions.


 

  • This is on sale for $99.
  • This is a rare deal as Blichmann gear is typically not discounted.
  • Shipping is free or reasonably priced flat rate to addresses in the contiguous US depending on your order size for most items.

Kegland JetKeg Keg Backpack – on sale for $49.99 at William’s Brewing

JetKeg Keg Backpack

JetKeg Keg Backpack via William’s Brewing

More Info

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

The JetKeg is a backpack designed to dispense and keep a keg cold. Ever been to an outdoor event and wanted to serve beer on the go? The JetKeg solves this problem. Keep in mind a full keg is very heavy, and we consider this more of a portable draft system than a back pack. The best use of this unit is to carry it in like a backpack, and then set it up for dispensing. Using a 2½ gallon keg would take a bit of load off, and make this more portable.

This product has been designed with durable buckles, strong nylon straps, waist strap and fully hot tape seamed internal lining that is waterproof so no dripping water all over the floor. This product has been designed to take a 5 gallon ball lock or 5 gallon Sankey commercial keg (pony keg) which are not included. The insulated bag will keep the keg cold for hours especially if you fill the bag with ice. A clear window is provided if you would like to stick print out a graphics sheet and insert it for brand or club identity.

The JetKeg includes the back pack, as well as a Duotight beer gun, EvaBarrier beer hose, and needed Duotight fitting to attach the EvaBarrier hose to the base of the gun. You provide a ball lock or sankey keg, couplers or ball lock fittings, and a Micro or Mini Regulator with gas line and fittings. It does come with a beer line neoprene insulating sleeve, although we have found it of questionable value, as you have to cut it in at least 3 pieces to get it to fit over the EvaBarrier beer line.

If you want a ball lock package with everything you need, see our item B77, JetKeg Dispensing Kit

Note: Pictured regulator and gas hose not included.


 

  • For a limited time Wiliam’s Brewing has this on sale for $49.99.
  • Shipping is free or reasonably priced flat rate to addresses in the contiguous US depending on your order size for most items.

Stainless Carbonation & Cleaning Cap – on sale for $7.99 at William’s Brewing

Stainless Carbonation & Cleaning Cap

Stainless Carbonation and Cleaning Cap from William’s Brewing

More Info

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

An all stainless male ball lock valve coupling cap that fits a 2 liter or smaller plastic soda bottle with a 28mm screw cap lid. This allows the 2 liter bottle to be charged with C02 from any female ball lock gas fitting (like our item D32 or D03 Gas Connector), carbonating the cold beverage in the bottle. Great for serving draft beer away from the keg. Also fits the Brewzilla in and out ports on the lid, and the Brewzilla Collection Jar ports for pressurizing the Brewzilla fermenter.

You can also fill this with sanitizing or line cleaning solution, put some ¼” tubing on the barb, and use it with a 2 liter PET bottle as a line cleaner for kegs and draft systems. To do this, fill the PET bottle 1/3 full of cleaning solution, screw on the cap with tubing affixed, and inject with C02 to pressurize. Then use a beer ball lock fitting with a ¼” hose attached and use this to rinse your beer faucet nozzle first, or use a piece of hose with two beer ball lock barbed fittings, and make a jumper to clean the beer side of kegs.

This has a integral hybrid ball lock post that will accept beer and gas lines. A tradeoff of this design means when you use a grey ball lock gas fitting to charge your bottle, the grey fitting will leak if you leave it on. This is designed to quickly charge with gas and then remove the gas ball lock fitting, it is not designed to have a gas line attached for any length of time. This works for its intended use, which is a quick charge with gas and then having the ability to attach a beer dispensing line with a black beer ball lock fitting. You can affix 1/4″ interior diameter beer tubing to the interior gas post which will serve as a beer pick up dip tube during dispensing if desired (order a foot or so of our item S31, 1/4″ beer tubing if you want to do this).

You can also purchase our P53 Gas Post for Corny Keg if you want a gas post on this fitting that will not leak gas when attached for a longer period, although this eliminates the ability to also attach a black beer side ball lock fitting.

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING: FOR USE ON PLASTIC SODA BOTTLES AND BREWZILLA ONLY, NEVER USE ON GLASS BOTTLES


Applications:

  • PET Bottles as Growlers: These are generally intended to convert 1L and 2L bottles to growlers.  Fill up a 1L or 2L PET bottle with your favorite homebrew.  Put one of these on (purge the headspace by squeezing if you want to) and then pressurize for transport.  This should help to reduce oxygen pickup and maintain carbonation levels.
  • Fine tune or rapidly carbonate beer: You can also use this cap to rapidly carbonate beer.  Same process as for transport, just set your regulator to the proper pressure and shake or agitate the PET bottle to help introduce CO2.  Or hook it up to CO2 and let it sit in you kegerator.
  • Draft Line Cleaning Projects:  I have developed three draft line cleaning projects using similar SS Caps – Build A Recirculating Draft Line Cleaning Pump | Mark II Keg and Carboy Cleaner Draft Line Cleaning Pump ConversionBuilding a Simple Ball Lock Draft Line Flushing Setup

Just Drained 5 Gallon Whiskey Barrels at William’s Brewing! Get Them While You Can!

Oak Barrels for Aging Homebrew!

Oak barrels can be used to used to age stouts and porters, age other beer styles, make sour beers and more.

New oak barrels can be had in sizes ranging from 1 liter all the way up to 1 barrel/53 gallons. As with most things 5 gallons seems to be a sweet spot for a lot of brewers. Larger barrels can be good for prolific homebrewers or group brews and smaller 1 to 5 liter sizes are great if you’re wanting to give barrel aging a try without a huge amount of expense or space.


More About Smaller Barrels:

Smaller barrels can also be dual purpose: You can age one (or more) batches of still spirits and at that point, the barrel becomes a used whiskey barrel that you can use for beers.

A past description from William’s Brewing re: their smaller barrels explains this well:

“When you distill a spirit, it invariably comes out clear as water. Put the clear spirit in contact with charred American Oak, and it turns amber and mellow over time with toasted wood vanilla-like richness. Want to speed up the aging process? Our new American Oak Barrels are charred on the inside for Whiskey, Bourbon, Tequilla, Rum, and Brandy aging. The large wood surface contact area per ounce compared with commercial 53 gallon barrels means this will age spirits much quicker than larger barrels. Handmade in Mexico following centuries old cooperage methods; the valve is wood and sealed with leather, and the top plug is wood and sealed with a wrap of leather. No plastic, glue, or rubber are used in construction.”


Hard to Find In Stock…

Since I started doing Homebrew Finds 5 gallon barrels have been a tough find. They would generally become available in batches and usually sell out quickly. In the past couple years this has become even more of an issue. I think this stems from distilleries using these smaller sizes less and less. There have been some times recently where I was aware of no in stock options.

As of this posting, Williams has a limited number of freshly drained whiskey barrels in stock.  Get them while you can!
