Kegs

Post by Kish84 »

Hey guys, we've bought some kegs, but have never seen anything quite like them before. There are 2 types of the same keg and we only have one clamp to seal the one type. Can one be used as a cask?? And where could we find another clamp? Any advice would help. They are Firestone kegs, and from the branding on the kegs it says it was from Genessee, the adapter top is Hoff Steven's, I have attached pictures. Thanks a bunch.

I'll look Sunday to see if the clamps on our Firestones are any good. We intend to cut them up to use as lids and heat shields anyways. Cover the shipping from Cambridge, and they're yours. I'll post pics during a lull in brewing.

Very interesting, keep me posted. Or if bringing the kegs over are easier for you, I have no issue with that as I'm in Kitchener. If that works better, we can set up a time to meet that works for both of us.

Sorry, just rotten wooden bungs, no clamps.
