A thought occurred to me as I was contemplating kegging my latest batch. Yes, sometimes thoughts occur to me out of the blue, but most of the time it is more like a tangential thing, I’m thinking about something and out of the blue comes another idea. What makes this one mentionable is, well, I remember it and I’m sitting at my desk when I had it. Sad? Perhaps, but I digress.

Don’t forget to check the O-rings on your kegs! Especially if the kegs inexplicably lose pressure or have been in use for a couple of years. For around four bucks they can be replaced with new ones and thats one less thing to worry about. It doesn’t hurt to put a thin coat of keg lube on there as well to help with the seals.

Treat your kegs well and they’ll treat your beer well too!

Cheers!
