    Fellows - here is my issue today

    I have been using a conical fermenter for my last 5 batches and l keep on having the same issue when it is time to keg

    The first 5gal keg is no problem. Just gravity fills the keg

    When the beer levels between keg and fermenter it obviously stop transferring. Therefore I struggle to carry my fermenter and put it on cases. It almost tilted last time...

    Is there a way to push the beer out?

    I have a pump which will likely be my solution but the cleaning / sanatizing / cleaning is not appealing

    Can you think of any other way to push the beer through?

    Thanks

    Matt

    Brilliant.

    Thanks a lot. I’ll play with the fittings but it will work!

    Cheers.

    Maybe the most efficient thread on this site.
