I have two of the Mini Core 360 regulators and they're awesome. I put the digital gauge in both of mine and use them on SodaStream bottles all the time. Super handy.

I’ve been using the 8L Oxebars for a few months now and they’re great. I’ve got a small kegerator and having a small, narrow keg allows me to get more kegs in my kegerator. Also, totally agree with having a slightly larger one to hold half batches a 12L would be sweet!

They are light and easy to experiment with. Hopefully with the release of the 5 gallon version they might consider a 3 gallon as I doubt they will do a 2.5 gallon one since they already have the 2.1 version.

Great video. I’ve almost purchased one several times. I’ll do it eventually. Hey you need to just go full metric- forgot the gallons and pounds, too hard. 😊

Funny thing is I prefer metric for anything I need to be exact on especially in weight like brewing salts, or like baking Sour Dough bread, but when it comes to temps, I prefer Fahrenheit to Celsius as it seems more granular.

I have one, the first time I used it it worked great, the second time I used it I could not get it to seal properly. I ended up having to put a ton of keg lube on it and it finally sealed. I don't know what the deal was but it was super frustrating. I'm hoping the next time I use it it works better.

I didn't know about the 20l size. Thanks for the video. Cheers 😀 👍 🍻

Yeah, MoreBeer was running at about $28 complete with the top part during a big sale little while back.

I have a few of these and a homemade kegerator that only fits one corny keg but I can put one of these next to the keg and have two beers on tap in my kegerator. So far what I've done is when the keg get low I transfer to the oxebar then can fill the keg with a new brew. I just got a couple of the 4 liter oxebar and now I'm going to try kegging 1-4 liter and 2-8 liter with a 5 gallon batch.

Hi mate I'm enjoying your video an very helpful information I'm in Adelaide south Australia I have the 4lt kegs they are brilliant I do a 23lt batch 19 lts inthe keg 4 lts in the plastic keg love it keep up the good work cheers mate an happy brewing.

Do you ever try pitching different yeasts on the same wort? That is one of the things I love about these, is that I can either do something like that or even a back flavoring to each to try.

I've the 4l versions with nukatap mini, flow control cap and 360 regulator with sodastream bottle. Great little party kegs with this combo. Would love Kegland to make a non permanent stand for them as they can be a bit wobbly. Also Kegland if you are listening, can you bring out an all rounder with a permanent flat plastic stand instead of a wire one. That's what puts me off buying the all rounder

Same, i'm looking into making a portable "kegerator", sort of like david heath has shown off in his video, but using the wall mount accessory to mount a couple of taps on the front :)

How do you pressure test an all rounder tia

Just ordered this few days ago and I’m also thinking on the Core 360. 😂

I also use the Core 360, but also own two very similar devices from Ikegger and Brouwland (Belgium). The Ikegger and Brouwland ones are considerably better, imho, so if you can get your hands on one of those in your country, I would definitely recommend them instead of the one from Kegland.

Just something to note about these, they only have a 2yr life span. So you may be better off getting refurb stainless corney kegs.

Yeah, I've heard that which is a lot like their fermenters, but I would expect they can easily go 4 to 5 years without issues. The big concern is holding pressure without breaking as plastic of any kind can become brittle over the years mainly due to UV exposure, which mine are exposed to as little as possible without keeping them in the dark. (The garage area is 100% LED lighting which stays off, unless I'm in there.)

@@BitterRealityBrewing Considering it's from the manufacturer they stating it for safety reasons, specifically when used at pressure and average environments. But, yeah, doing what your doing _should_ help.

I also own 6 Oxebars (8L and 4L models). Pushed one to 6 months and couldn't taste anything bad/strange. Considering the low price point, the only bad thing IMHO is that the 8L kegs fall over very easily... Sure, stainless steel kegs are better, but also much more expensive.

It might be perfect I saw this now, as I just watched another home brewing video where they were selling 3D printed stands for the 8L Kegs. Thinking something like that might be coming out from KegLand next to help keep them standing up. When they are full, it isn't a problem, but when they get low, it is hard to keep them upright sometimes.

Have you convinced your wife that you need a bigger house yet?

LOL. She hates beer, but tolerates this as it makes me leave her alone.

You should switch to imperial gallons, when we make a 5 gallon batch in the UK we get more beer than you with your little US gallons 😂😂
