So, it seems that finding used corny kegs for a sub $60 price is becoming more & more difficult. Granted, I have not looked *that hard*, however, I have struck out every time I've looked in the past few months.
I did need some more kegs, and saw that brand new ones are only a little bit more than the reconditioned ones... However, I really prefer the rubber tops, as opposed to the metal single handle versions.
So for just a little bit more still, I got me *new* corny kegs w/rubber tops!
I picked them up at Kegconnection.com There may be some sites out there with cheaper prices, but I've used them before, and they ship reliably for a flat $8 .. and throw in an extra set of O-rings to boot.
They also had the non-rubberized *new* kegs for $108. Used Kegs starting at $70.
Anyways, just wanted to pass along the info... Now, I just gotta get a brewday setup to fill these guys!

Re: Corny Kegs *new*
JohnW and I were just talking about new kegs on Saturday. Those sure are pretty.
Re: Corny Kegs *new*
Very pretty. And since it's serious bling, I think you should take them to JonW's buddy and see about getting them polished to a nice shine.
While you're working on that, I'll take the 4 kegs I bought for $140, use the savings to buy ingredients, and actually work on filling them with beer

Re: Corny Kegs *new*
No arugment here! Save some money and brew more!
I've been using some very beat-up old kegs along with a couple of decent used ones. I have one or two that are difficult to get a good lid seal on, even with new silicon o-rings. This was just an early father's day gift to myself... I always wanted at least 1 or 2 pristine new kegs.
Now, I just got to get me a few more of the brewcommune overlays to put on them. That really bling'd up my nicer used ones!

Re: Corny Kegs *new*
I'll see what I have left. Bring the new kegs to SCHF next year and we'll kick them around and get them broken in for you.lexuschris wrote:Now, I just got to get me a few more of the brewcommune overlays to put on them. That really bling'd up my nicer used ones!
