No problem at all. It's a pleasure.

I just discovered after 2 years that you can actually unmount the post??

Love the posts with the wedge seal. Made a mistake and ordered some look-alikes by mistake...and those went right in the garbage. Now I make sure I get the KegLand branded carbonation caps.

I just watched your old videos from 5y ago and just realized that u not change at all.. Btw thanks for all your videos

Love these carbonation caps and T-piece setups. Great work Kee and Co 👌👌👌

Yes they are quite useful. We should have come up with this a long time ago.

I look forward to using these caps. I recently purchased my Brewzilla gen 4 and am totally in love with it. I make N.A./LOW ABV beer and bottling is time consuming. These caps will be great to carbonate bottles for give away.

To open up even more applications for these disco caps, how about manufacturing/supplying the male bottle threads (including the larger 38) with various common adapter threads and 1.5", 2", (for the 38), 4" TC ferrules? Bulkhead fittings with the male bottle caps too would be very useful.

the carb cap on the reg is so clever, really handy way to have hot swappable gas lines!

I agree. Being able to use them as a gas line disconnect is quite useful.

I slide 3/8x1/4 beer line over the quarter inch stem and use it to counter pressure fill pet bottles, so damn quick and easy to purge and fill

Great info here! Two questions: 1. Will the new upgraded black barb screw perfectly inside of the pre-2023 red/yellow posts? 2. If so would you consider selling just the upgraded black barbs? I have dozens of these carbonation caps and would hate to toss them all together if I could just get the black barbs and install them into my existing caps.

Like these posts. Is there a video on the gas line disconnect you showed at the end of the video?

Recommendation for a new product based on these. I recently diy'd a glycol chiller from an aircon, but one thing that was really tricky was an affordable quick disconnect system to prevent glycol leakage when removing from fermenter at the end of fermentation to clean etc. I ended up cutting the threaded "cap" part off of these and filing down to a diameter that i could fit inside a 10mm ID pvc pipe. It would be really cool if you made a high flow version of these with a barb to fit 10mm ID pipe, and no "cap" part. What I have come up with seems to work really well for this and doesn't cost a bunch of cash per connection. Hope to see this in future!

It's funny you say this. It's something that we have been thinking about here too. I think it's about time we made a high flow ball lock disconnect. The area of highest resistance and highest chance of blocking is the current poppet spring. So this area in particular I think could do with some further innovation and potentially a new high flow standard.

I noticed that the poppet does not go all the way to the top like the stainless steel ones do, is that a design decision?

Looks like the links are to the previous gen with the April 2020 design review PDF

I replaced all my stainless with plastic - it's so much esier to identify gas and liquid with the colour coding - no more accidents connecting them up the wrong way around.

What lines do you recommend using on the carb cap as a floating dip tube on the fermzilla? Just bought an all-round starter kit and already have a blowtie spunding valve, some caps and a float and want to put it all together.

What is the safe temperature for the whole assembly (including the o-rings)? Can it be boiled? Is it safe to put into autoclave?

I love them, however, I have to replace them every 6 months on my FermZilla as I end up damaging the top thread. If I had a torque wrench, what torque would you recommend on a FermZilla? Thank you

Where can we buy the new caps? The links go to the previous version of the caps without the new black post.

This is a fantastic upgrade. The less o rings in the system the better.

Yes I agree. The injection molded tooling needs to be much more precise with tighter tolerances but it's well worth it in the long run. Also oxygen ingress is much higher over rubber seals than hard POK sealing surface so for beer quality it's also preferable.

I’d love to see a carb cap (or even an adapter) for the 20L wort bags so they can be easily hooked up to a beer engine.

Slightly related too, I'd really like to see a smaller floating dip tube design that fits through a standard Sankey keg hole and even a 1.5" TC ferrule. Preferably still the stainless balls, which I pressure cook with tubing to sterilise before fitting.

That is a fair point. I will bring that to the team and see what we can come up with.

Thanks again, Kee. Have you ever considered making keg posts in the same yellow and red plastic to keep the colour coding consistent, and to make it easier to tell the in and out posts apart?

I use silicone green and blue orings from Valuebrew on my kegs. Green for gas. Blue for beer.

I have one of your stainless carbonation cap and noticed a new big problem. EU is changing the caps for PET-bottles to a new tethered cap system. They also altered the threads with seemingly smaller pitch and shorter overall thread length. Do you have any plans to make a new EU line of these accessories?

Can we please have a carb cap with an 8mm barb? There are not many 6mm duotight fittings. Surely most of us run 8mm duotight...maybe a 6mm-8mm elbow would take care of it. Hmmm, maybe need one both ways, 6mm barb to 8mm female. 8mm barb to 6mm female. It feels like there is a piece missing when the 6-8mm reducer is female to female.

i recently went to get some accessories for my new brewzilla from you since morebeer does not carry these parts. i was surprised to see you don't ship outside of australia? could you please consider changing this, there is a lot that you sell that i would really like to buy and would be happy to pay the shipping costs.

How many PSI can this carbonation cap withstand?　I would also like to know the PSI of KL06880 and KL09010.

At 11:38 what's the product connected to the regulator please?

What parts did you use on your co2 tank for the quick disconnect????

SS slim profile body is more aestheticly pleasing on a kitchen bench/counter also it's carbonation bottle quick attach & release mechanism requires no screw on ability as you've noted? Which I assume you'd adapt to current SS users bottlk

Yes we understand that is normally the case but we have designed these red and yellow carbonation caps so they work with both ball lock posts. Back in the day when posts were invented they were only used for corny kegs which had one narrow application. Now with these being used on fermenters they are used for many different applications so having a multi purpose post is more useful. So now we rely on the colour of the posts to determine which one you have the tip tube connected to.

Do you make a carbonation cap to fit Sodastream bottles?

Eliminating the o`rings sounds like Elon Musk , the best part is no part.

Man. I wish you guys made your other products decent like this. The fermzilla is fuuuuuuuullllll of bad design from your engineers. The thermowell is ineffective with any lid. It plain doesn't work if you're using the tri-clover lid. You can bend it, but it's still doing readings from inside the chilling coil which is highly inaccurate. The tri-clover has tons of problems. The flat lid works sorta. The bulkheads that are used on coil are super inefficient and leak super easy. I own just about every kegland product related to fermzilla and it's mostly junk.

These caps are the worst. Does not seal any good against the pet bottle. Tried severel types of pet bottles. Needs to be tighten down with a wrench to seal... Worst buy ever... The metallic ones with a gasket is so much better.

Who still has a 10mm still in their toolbox... Ffs
