This is essentially five of our product offerings engineered into a single device:

With this tool, a brewing pump, a few feet of hose, and a few hardware fittings you are set to:

·         Use the built-in Spray Head to clean, rinse, and sanitize Sanke kegs (using products like Powdered Brewery Wash and Star San)

·         Ferment your wort in a Sanke keg

·         Use the Adjustable Racking Cane to transfer liquid in or out

·         Use the 14” deep Thermowell to know exactly what temperature the liquid contents of the keg are at all times

·         Close the Full Port Ball Valve to pressurize the liquid and/or gas inside the fermenter. Useful for auto-expelling cleaning solutions, rinse water, etc.

·         Attach a blow-off hose to the Full Port Ball Valve using your favorite 1/2" NPT Male connector, then open the valve to expel CO2 from fermenting wort

·         Use the Adjustable Racking Cane to extract the yeast and trub from the bottom of the keg, leaving clean beer behind

-       Or  -

·         Use the racking cane to rack the beer off the yeast and into bottles or kegs

·         Use the built-in CO2 Ball Lock connector to force carbonate contents under high regulator pressure, then serve contents after reducing regulator pressure

Adapts to your current connecting hardware of choice:

·         Hook up any 1/2" NPT male connecting item (sold separately) - such as Cam Lock, Quick Disconnect, or hose barb fitting - to the Full Port Ball Valve to transfer gas or liquid in or out of the keg.
