Cheap Gadget that really works

Post by Normski » Wed Apr 15, 2009 8:13 pm

When pouring beer from my keg I was getting a lot of head and had to jug it, and then pour into a glass.
I tried using a part of a turkey baster attached to the tap of my kktt. It pours a better pint and as the head is smoother, tastes better too. The baster cost me £2.25
You just use the tube not the bulb of the turkey baster, attach it to the tap of your keg and insert it in the glass to the bottom and open the tap.
It works so well I took some smudges to show, I'll try to upload them if anyones interested.

Hi Tone,Beesley,Trunky and all.
Heres the pics. It does seam to be doing the same job as a Dalex, but as you say a lot cheaper. I have even seen them on Wilkinsons site for 50p but I dont know if they are the correct size, So check yourself before purchasing.
i may have to spread to pics over serveral mails.

I love cheap and gadgets, and to have them in the same sentence is even better. Nice find/implementation Normski. :D

I never said how I came across the Idea.
There I was watching these two lesbians an they asked me to fetch the Turkey baster. I took one look at it an thought! Hang on a minute, I've got an Idea. (you have to use a Micheal Caine voice for the last bit)
