King Keg tap

Post by pas8280 » Thu Dec 02, 2010 8:54 pm

Just a quick question chapsi will be putting a brew in a king keg bottom tap at the weekend and realised there is a reducing plug inside the tap presumably for attaching a pipe and float as in the top tap model.
Should i leave it in or take it out bearing in mind i will be drawing off via a beer engine and demand valve ?

Take it out....the Inner Diameter of thin tube inside the keg would be to small to work with the pull of a beer engine.
Just attach a length of suitable size hose from the tap(put a jubilee around it) to the demand valve and then to the beer engine!
