Reconditioned Pin Lock Keg Cornelius (Corny) via Northern Brewer
More InfoFrom the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:
Pin lock kegs are perfect for kegging your homebrew, cider, or soda, these reconditioned pin lock 5-gallon kegs are used, but have been tested and approved to hold pressure — their most important task. Though the exteriors may have cosmetic damage, we guarantee that they are pressure-capable and we personally pressure test each and every one when it comes through our doors.
Needed, but not included, is a CO2 cylinder, Regulator, and Pin Lock Gas (KX07) and Beverage (KX09) lines.
Looking for a more comprehensive system? See our Draft Brewer® keg systems.
Along with pressure testing each keg, we replace the lid o-rings and outer-post o-rings, if needed. Many of our competitors do not do this, but we want to make absolutely sure you are satisfied — even if it a used keg at a low price! Our technicians have also cleaned each keg with a caustic soda rinse — but even so — the keg may retain a sweet smell similar to a lemon-lime soft drink. The keg exteriors have not had extensive cleaning, so as with most “used” soda kegs we recommend that you thoroughly clean the keg inside (again) and out before using.
A note about o-rings: If you are concerned about the condition of the o-rings you may purchase extra o-rings separately, in case any tear during use.
This amazing price is worth a few dents! Because these kegs are used, many show exterior wear and tear that will not affect the keg performance to hold pressure. Holding pressure is the keg main function, and it will keep your beer tasting fresh and delicious. The affordability of buying “reconditioned” is definitely worth a few scratches and dents.
These kegs are sourced from a variety of vendors and are not customer returns. They may not look new, but they work like new, thus the major discounted price from that of a brand new keg.
22″ Tall x 8.75″ diameter.
Note: Keg Lube can help prevent CO2 leaks and prolong the life of the keg seals.

Reconditioned 5 Gallon Pin Lock Keg
Our reconditioned pin lock homebrew keg is the perfect affordable solution for home brewing and beverage making. Pin locks are the alternative to the more-common ball lock kegs, and they have some unique features and benefits of their own.
First, the “pin” part refers to the method of attaching the disconnects to the keg posts. Pin lock kegs have (not surprisingly) pins on each post – two on the liquid, one on the gas. These pins hold the disconnects very securely, and because there’s two pins on the liquid side and three on the gas, you’ll never confuse one line for the other. Kinda cool.
Second, pin lock kegs are typically shorter than similarly sized ball locks, making them ideal when space is a little tight.
Finally, they’re cheap! These kegs give great bang for the buck without giving up anything in performance.
So go ahead and do something a little different. Grab a classic 5 gallon pin lock keg or three and stand out in the homebrew crowd. (Oh, and they’re also pretty great for cold brew coffee, nitro coffee, soda, Kombucha tea, and whatever else you’re drinkin’)
Reconditioned 5 Gallon Pin Lock Keg Features
- Durable stainless steel construction
- Dual rubber handles—colors will vary
- Reconditioned – cleaned, sanitized, de-labled and pressure-checked prior to shipment
- We replace the keg O-rings as necessary during testing. We still recommend that you keep a spare set on hand at all times, as O-rings sometimes crack in transit and when you clean the keg.
- Great for homebrew beer, soda, and Kombucha tea, as well as nitro coffee and cold brew coffee
Keg Specifications
- Keg body of 304 stainless steel
- Approved by the NSF
- 9″ diameter x 22″ height. Keg dimensions may vary slightly from wear.
This is a Class 1 keg. That’s the best condition used keg we offer, but please remember the keg is still used and will have some scratches, dents and signs of wear
Good used pin locks have been hard to find… When I started brewing pin locks were cheaper than ball locks, but that has changed. There’s been a real reversal in used keg pricing. Used pin locks have been tough to find in stock, especially at anything close to what I would call a good price. For example, see MoreBeer’s Pin Lock Offering. This is supply related. New pin lock kegs are not coming into the homebrewing market and we’ve finally hit an availability wall.
These are selling for just $34.95. That’s an outstanding deal! Shipping (again for me, this will vary) is $15.04. That figures to just $49.99. Shipping for two kegs is just $15.61. That figures to $85.59 or just $42.80 per keg shipped.
