Dirty Keg

Oh man, never ever put off cleaning out a fried keg. I went to the garage to grab an empty keg so I can get that Kolsch in my belly for the weekend. I opened the thing up and was hit with a most unpleasant odor and sight.

That little bit of beer left on the bottom after the keg gurgles empty was covered in mold. It moved as a whole, not as a liquid but as a mat of solid nastiness! Because of my laziness, now I have to take the whole thing apart, scrub the goo out of it and all its parts.

I could have sworn I rinsed that one out before putting it up, and I thought I put a CO2 charge on it too, but it must have leaked the charge, or I just opened it and then put it back or something, but wow it is nasty.

I wonder if I have a spare set of O-rings sitting around…

Cheers,
Tony
