Kegging Without a Kegerator? OxyBar 8L Kegs & Budget CO2 Setup!

Описание: Looking to get into kegging but don’t have space for a full-size kegerator? In this video, I’ll walk you through setting up the 8L OxyBar kegs with tapping heads, perfect for small fridges, portable setups, and even taking to BBQs! 🍻
What’s Covered:
✅ Size Comparison – See how the 8L OxyBar keg stacks up against a standard Corny keg.

✅ Regulator Options – From budget-friendly to premium choices:
• $24 CO2 bulb regulator (16g cartridges)
• $60 upgraded CO2 bulb regulator + SodaStream adapter
• $70 Westway CO2 regulator (full-size option)
• Kegland CORE 360 mini regulator (versatile & portable)

✅ CO2 Bottle Options – What works best?
• Standard 2.6kg CO2 bottles (Type 30 thread)
• Compact 400g aluminum cylinders (Type 30 thread)
• SodaStream bottles – OEM vs. Kegland refillable (and why the refillable version is a game-changer)

✅ Tapping Options – Pour like a pro!
• Budget: Nylon Pluto gun with Duotight adapters
• Premium: NukaTap Mini on a flow-control ball lock disconnect

✅ Smart Hacks & Setup Tips:
• SodaStream stability hack – A 3D-printed cone to stop bottles from tipping over in the fridge
• Regulator strap – Prevent damage by securing your CO2 setup to the keg
• Ultimate portability – Fit an 8L keg into a Yeti bucket with a SodaStream bottle for ice-cold beers at a BBQ
• Dual kegging setup – Use a Duotight T-piece to carbonate one keg while drinking from another
