Title: Keg Volume Strips
Post by: blisster on May 05, 2014, 04:52:45 PM

Does anyone here use keg volume strips to show how much is left in the kegs?

I'm thinking of ordering a few.  Tapping the keg isn't very accurate.

I'm wondering how well they work or if they are worth the investment?

I can't imagine they'd be too accurate, and they'd be a waste in a keezer.

Here's a $90 option that might work a bit better. I'm going to continue lifting and guessing haha

A good pipeline makes all this irrelevant :cheers:
