Anyone had any experience with using these for homebrew?


In my experience, they're both very useful and convenient containers for brewing (particularly the pigs). On the other hand, you pay for that convenience (particularly with the pigs).

You can also find 3-gallon corny kegs, but be prepared to shell out well over $100 for those guys - rare items.

Yeah, I just realized you had to buy and use a pressure pouch with each 5L batch. The mini-keg looks interesting, I may get one and if I like it, pick up 2 more. They hold 1 and 1/3rd gallon, so I guess that will get me most of a 5 gallon brew.. or do you think one should just load one mini-keg at a time and keep the rest of the brew in the secondary fermenter for a while?
