Secondary fermentation using specified amount of sugar was fine in 3 of 4 of these but the 4th got distorted. All in same environment in Garage temp range 50-75 Farenheit. See jpg attached to other email.

Excellent company, products are as described and delivered quickly and packed well. Top recommendation.for this company.

I like this system. It is less expensive that the larger kegging systems, the keg fits easily on your refrigerator shelf, and the equipment is simple and easy to clean. Fills a nice void between bottling and going all out for a larger system.

I got this as a gift. My biggest problem is that all the CO2 leaks out if you put the whole system in the fridge. I get one pour then come back the next night and all CO2 is gone. Not sure if there is a trick to get this to work but as of right now I go through cartridges quick.

I once owned the same kind of CO2 assisted tap for 5L kegs back in the 90's and I loved it. Today's unit is superior in several ways. First the overall construction is more substantial, with better and denser materiel, should significantly increase the life of the tap. Also the upgrade from 12 gram powerlets to 16 gram means better performance over several uses. Finally - the ability to turn the gas flow down to completely off allows you to switch the tap out to a new keg while maintaining the remains of the unused CO2 gas for the next can.

Be sure to get some lube to treat the dip tube and gaskets and prolong their service lives.

Cons: Well the 16 gram powerlets are a bit hard to find and somewhat more expensive, but you can find ways around this with some internet searching. (one guy has found a way to use the more common 12 gram cylinders!)

Overall for me it is a superior way to Keg and Serve my homebrew without going all in on a commercial keg setup.
