The keg experiment

The experiment commences. Interested to see how/if aging time is changed in an oxygen-free environment (keg will be pressurised with Argon). Also interested to see if I can pour juice from the beer tap :stuck_out_tongue: which is not important but would be cool A/F.

Well - it looks like it works :rofl:
I couple of kinks to iron out.

  1. It uses a lot of argon to push the juice out so I need a bigger canister
  2. The cheap ass tap I got is pretty shit and will need to be changed
  3. Dunno how the aging part will roll will let you all know as I taste test.

The bottle I poured out in this is my control bottle.

I am interested in your results. I did a test similar to that except I used the food saver and a mason jar. As a matter of fact, that is how I store my nic. I put it in the jar, take the air out and put it in the freezer.

It would be super cool if you could pour it out using the tap… :sunglasses:

It does pour with the tap - i just need a bigger argon canister to keep the pressure up (now that i know it pours out I will be getting a larger bottle).

It would be an excellent way to store nic.

That’s sweet, now you just need an rta with a 40ml capacity and fill holes big enough to fit the tap nozzle in lol

Meh. I think the hand sanitizer trick is much easier! :sunglasses:

Fixed the tap today and have a bigger bottle of argon on the way this week so I can up the pressure in the keg and it should pour a bit quicker.

If you used helium instead of argon would you talk like Donald Duck when ya talked?

:rofl: Unfortunately I don’t think it would work be a bit like the great helium beer hoax a few years back

Na probably not - don’t need to keep concentrates in kegs (yet :rofl:)

I was thinking e-juice dispensers on the side of the flavor fridge…

Should you need assistance in emptying the kegs for future storage requirements, please don’t hesitate to ask. I’m here to help.

Just sayin’…

Never say never - like a self serve ejuice machine like an instant coffee machine.

Only if you forget to wash your bottles (is just a big bottle lol) and that may be a bonus secret ingredient :wink:
