I am new to kegging and have a couple questions about cleaning used
ball-lo=
ck corny kegs.
To clean and sanitize the keg before using for the first time=2C should I
r=
emove the o-rings from the valve posts? If so=2C how does one remove the
t=
op o-rings without damaging them? The o-rings for the dip-tube (out) and
s=
hort tube (in) are easy to remove=2C but I don't know how to remove the
top=
o-rings without the danger of damaging them.
=20
Also=2C can the poppet-valves be disassembled=2C beyond removing the
o-ring=
s=2C to clean and sanitize for the first time? If so=2C how does one
disas=
semble the poppet valve?
=20
Thank your for any and all help!
