Keg cleaning is an ongoing job in a brewery. There are always kegs in various stages of cleanliness. Kegs aren't just to be cleaned either. They also have to be sanitized. And filled. And they are emptied at an amazing rate which starts the cycle all over again. When we first started home brewing, we used old soda or "corny" kegs because they were fairly simple to disassemble for cleaning. As a microbrewery, we have a bunch of brand spankin' new, shiny "Sanke" kegs that are waiting to be put into the brewery rotation. Sanke kegs are not that simple…
