kegging homebrews

[BigFoot]

any homebrewers here keg instead of bottle? i have a kegerator, so kegging would make sense, just dont know/have any info on it. curious to see what someofthe brothers here do.

Looked quite in depth to this back in the day. However never got around to it. The cornelius kegs are the deal. No need to wait for bottle conditioning. Give it a shot of co2. give it a shake. Let it settle for a few days and you are ready to tap. The kegs have come up in price last time I looked. Methinks they are not the surplus that they used to be. I never started with kegs because I just was not drinking what I was making and finally gave up altogether.

You'll find lots of info there. I use the site but I don't keg so I don't know much about the soda kegs and stuff.

I keg exclusively. I'm an odd duck amongst home brewers....I never brewed extract, jumped right to all-grain...never bottled, right to kegging.
I've got a 2 handle keg fridge in my bar and use corny kegs as mentioned above.
Happy to help with any question you have about connections, corny's and what not.

I just don't have the space to jump into like you did. Next house I swear. I don't even have a stinkin basement and I live in PA!

Kegging is the only way to go. I built a small kegerator so I can have two beers on tap at all times.
