Has anyone else put a lager like a coppers lager in a plastic beer keg? I have finally just emptied my Beer keg with a coopers stout.
I hear that the plastic ones dont hold enough pressure to produce a decent lager.
So just wonder, do I step back from a stout in my keg to try a lager, of do I just keep it for stout's/Ales???
Has anyone plastic kegged a lager?
Re: Has anyone plastic kegged a lager?
I did it once and it didn't work. It kept releasing the pressure and ending up tasting like pish

Re: Has anyone plastic kegged a lager?
Cornies are 4 gallon stainless vessels from the drinks industry, they are capable of maintaining much higher pressures than plastic kegs. You also need a CO2 gas supply, such as a pub gas bottle, in order to dispense from them. Have a search around the forum, there's lots of info about them. Lots... and lots...

I was thinking of buying a king keg for my belgian ales (brewferm stuff).
Would this be ok? - i know they have quite high carbonation rates....
Damn sight more convenient than cleaning 30 bottles each brew!
