Description

If you have a pressure-capable conical with a 1.5" TC port on the top and 1/2" Female NPT threads on the racking port valve, this kit will allow you to apply gentle pressure to the conical to force the beer out and into a corny keg through the liquid line for an oxygen free transfer.

The specific conical we made the kit for is the SS Brewing Technologies Chronical fermenter (non brewmaster's edition) but it will work with any fermenter that can handle a little pressure, has 1.5" TC port on the top and a racking port with female 1/2" NPT on the drain valve.

This kit includes:
One TC to ball lock gas post adapter (you supply the gasket and clamp or purchase separately)
One premium hex nipple with oring gaskets on both sides to allow for hand tight seals which can be easily taken apart for cleaning (again by hand). This threads into the drain valve.
One Female NPT x 3/8 hose barb
Six feet of racking hose
One Black ball lock QD with 3/8" hose barb swivel.

You will need a source of CO2 with a grey ball lock connector on the end of the hose to apply gas to the conical port.

Our kit is superior to the SSBrewtech offering in these ways:

Significantly cheaper
Uses ball lock on the gas side so you don't have to take apart your CO2 source lines.
The liquid side connection installs via hand tight gasketed connections so no teflon tape or tools required for setup or breakdown. YES you SHOULD be breaking everything down between uses to fully clean and sanitize everything. We actually recommend boiling the NPT valves and fittings before use every time.

Best practices for a oxygen free transfer:

Fill your serving keg to the top with sanitizer solution.
Pressurize the keg with CO2 and dispense out all of the sanitizer by attaching the black QD, hose and nipple assembly to the beverage out post. This will leave your keg full of CO2 and zero oxygen and also sanitize the filling hose assembly at the same time.
Spray the open threads of the conical drain valve with sanitizer, then thread the nipple and hose assembly into the valve until the oring makes contact with the valve. Hand tight is fine.
Turn your regulator down to zero pressure, attach the TC x gas post adapter to the top port of the conical, and attach the gas QD to the adapter.
With the black QD still attached to the corny out post, open the racking valve on the conical.
Pull the vent on the corny and turn it 90 degrees to lock it open (or pop a spare grey QD onto the gas post with no hose attached)
Slowly increase regulator pressure until beer begins to flow being careful not to exceed the pressure rating of the conical (refer to manufacturer literature... RTFM).
