2L Ball Lock Keg - with Corny Keg Lid
- Description
- Shipping information
What we think at BKT HQ:
These are super cute, growler size corny kegs that are perfect for taking beer from a larger corny keg to either drink inside or take to a party.
They work great with your existing corny keg dispensing gear but if you want something really portable we recommend using a small charger reg (here) (you'll need a Gas MFL as well) and a deluxe party tap (here) or pluto gun (here).
Kegland say they are designed primarily for dispensing carbonated water using their carbonator lid (see here) but they are great for transporting home brew as well.
From Kegland:
2L Ball Lock Keg with Corny Keg Lid and Metal Handle (152mm x 252mm)
The KegLand 2000mL Ball Lock Keg is the smallest Cornelius keg lid capable ball lock keg to date. Primarily designed for a compact carbonating reservoir for soda water systems. It can of course be used as a more homebrew-styled portable party keg growler.
For more details on how to set this up as a carbonating soda water dispenser please see the manual here -> Carbonating Soda Reactor Lid. (takes you to the kegland website). We have this product here.
The other main difference between this keg and the Mini Keg range is that it comes with a rigid stainless steel gas and liquid dip tube (Please see internal photo). Meaning it cannot be used on its side without configuring a floating dip tube. To do this and not cut down the internal dip tube, we would suggest swapping the lid out for one of these -> The Corny Floater.
Dimensions:
152mm wide x 252mm to the handle.
231mm to the top of the ball lock posts. If using a machined ball lock disconnect the height would be approximately 273mm.
When using a soda reactor lid. The height including a machined ball lock disconnect would be 297mm

Brewing frequently asked questions
How long does it take to brew beer?
The time it takes to brew beer can vary, but on average, the process takes about 4 to 6 weeks. This includes the various stages such as malting, mashing, boiling, fermenting, conditioning, and bottling. However, some beer styles may require longer aging periods for optimal flavor development.
Is home brewing worth it?
Many people find home brewing to be a rewarding and enjoyable hobby, allowing them to create unique and customised beers. It provides a deeper understanding of the brewing process and offers the opportunity to experiment with different ingredients and styles. Additionally, home brewing can be cost-effective in the long run compared to purchasing craft beers. However, it requires time, effort, and a certain level of commitment. Whether it's worth it ultimately depends on one's passion for brewing and the satisfaction derived from the process and the end product.
Is home brewing legal?
Home brewing for personal use is generally legal, and there is no need for a specific license as long as certain conditions are met. Home brewers are allowed to produce beer, wine, and cider for personal consumption. However, there are limits on the amount that can be brewed without a license. As of January 2022, the limits were 100 litres for beer and 100 litres for wine per household.
It's important to stay informed about any updates or changes in the regulations, so it's advisable to check with local authorities or brewing associations for the most current information regarding home brewing laws in the UK. Always ensure that you comply with the relevant regulations and guidelines to enjoy home brewing within the legal framework.
