What are the dimensions of a 1/4 keg and 1/6 keg of pilsner urquell? i want to know if I have room in my kegerator

Caleb Houseknecht
June 15, 2015, 4:46 pm

Hey Dennis!

If it's a standard 1/4 Barrel, the diameter should be 16-1/8," and the height 13.

If it's a standard 1/6 Barrel, the diameter should be 9-1/4," and the height 23.

Hope that helps!

Which type of coupler does steigl beer use?

Caleb Houseknecht
July 13, 2015, 1:59 pm

Hey there, Jim,

To be honest, we are not quite sure. We did some research and couldn't find anything either. I would suggest contacting them through this form - https://www.stiegl.at/en/contact. If you find out, let us know so we can add it to our list. Sorry about that, and we hope you're able to find out!

Hey,

Which type of coupler do i need for Falco/Molotov Cocktail?
It seems to be S, but it's not. I took a shower with a S coupler...
D????

Thanks

Caleb Houseknecht
August 12, 2015, 2:49 pm

Hey Ben,

I spoke with two of our draft beer experts and both suggested a D coupler. It has a shorter probe, and if you got sprayed with S, it was likely because the unengaged probe was hitting the keg valve. Definitely try a D, and let us know if that works!

Larry
September 12, 2015, 7:49 pm

Is a 1/6 keg available in either Pilsner Urquell or Staropramen?

Caleb Houseknecht
September 17, 2015, 2:17 pm

Hey Larry,

Sorry for the delayed response here. We'd suggest checking with your local distributor! It all depends on where you live and/or how far you're willing to drive to get it. Hope that helps!

Lukas Kohler

I do not see Schlosseggenberg on your list. It looks like and fits a D coupler, but the ball bearing is too low.

Do you know what it is? Thanks,

Do you know what style coupler Andechs uses?

Caitlin Hartney
March 4, 2016, 2:14 pm

Hi, Ron. Because beer comes from different distributors who may be selling different iterations of that beer, we recommend you contact the distributor from whom you are planning on buying it. They should be able to tell you which coupler to use.

Rick
March 19, 2016, 4:57 pm

I am interested in a coupler for Beck's Beer. Your site indicates a "D" and others I found say it's a "S." Can you clear it up?

Thanks

Caitlin Hartney
March 21, 2016, 7:55 pm

Hi, Rick. We are confident "D" is the correct coupler.

Rick
March 21, 2016, 8:00 pm

Thanks Caitlin. I appreciate the reply. Now I can order my keg of Beck's.

Caitlin Hartney
March 21, 2016, 8:11 pm

That said, be sure to check with your local keg source, as different distributors may be getting their kegs from different sources.

What couplers to soda companies like Pepsi use?

Caitlin Hartney
April 6, 2016, 2:52 pm

Hi, Steve. Modern soda is dispensed via a Bag-in-Box system; it is not pre-mixed. So, Pepsi wouldn't use couplers.

Steve
April 10, 2016, 2:01 am

Some companies still use kegs. I have an opportunity to buy some used soda kegs for a good price but I want to make sure that they'll be compatible before I spend the money.

Is the 1/4 keg of yuenglings actually a 1/6 keg? It measures the 23" in height but it's actually about 11" diameter (outside to outside measured). Thanks for clarifying this........Mike

Jon
September 4, 2016, 3:31 pm

Just tapped a keg of Stiegl Radler (Grapefruit) and it is a type S coupler. Initially tried a D and would get a slight spritz when opening the faucet after connecting with a D, but it wasn't actually opening the valve, so had to switch to the S with the slightly longer probe.

Gregg
September 9, 2016, 8:31 pm

I can confirm that Steigl Salzburger beer kegs use the S coupler. Please update your chart.

January 27, 2017, 5:52 pm

Hi, Pete. Generally the 6-liter and 5-liter kegs are proprietary to whatever dispenser they are supposed to be used for. Unfortunately, We do not have any. You should contact the manufacturer.

Czechvar beer keg koupler type ?anyone? THX

Alex
May 11, 2017, 2:34 pm

Why are there all these different connector types? Is it because every brewer wants some sort of "exclusivity" that only their beer can be served with a tap? Is it dependent on functionalities/the beer type?

Dave S.
July 27, 2017, 11:13 pm

I was told by my local beer distributor that kegs of Estrella Damm Lager, although they use an S coupler, are only for commercial use. They said there is no way to use them on a kegorator because of some limitation or control feature that prevents its use. Do any of you know anything about this.. I've never heard of anything like that.

Richard
August 30, 2017, 2:07 am

D for sure - have bought several of their kegs

Chas
October 6, 2017, 6:06 pm

They used a G coupler. The same that Fullers uses.By the way Fullers London Porter is the best and their ESB is untouchable,a bit pricey.I live in NYC and it cost about $250 for a 50 Liter, but if you can swing it you will never have another Bass.Their London Pride is only OK.

I have a 30 litre keg of Stella Artois and when I connect the coupler nothing come out. Not sure if the Stella Keg takes a different coupler. The one I am using works OK for Alexander Keiths and on the chart it looks like a D. What should I try for the Stella Keg

December 22, 2017, 12:33 am

Stella takes an S type. It looks and connects just like the D, but it extends an extra 1/4" to complete the connection.

Chris

Hi Susan,

The only low-profile keg couplers we currently carry are for the D system.

John Namisnak
November 27, 2018, 4:45 pm

Hi Susan: I solved my issue using an "A" coupler with a German Paulaner Keg in my Kegerator by using a 90 degree stainless steel connector & a 4 pipe clamps. It made a nice 90 degree curve at top & I was able to squeeze it in the kegerator without messing up the line or tap or beer!

Hans
November 30, 2018, 5:37 am

I can confirm the 1/2 barrel takes an S coupler. Recently purchased and finished off the keg. No comment on the 1/6 barrel. Stella on draft was incredible. I'd never been that impressed with it in the bottle before. Seemed like the type of beer that would show up at an office Christmas party because it's perceived as fancy. On tap was a whole nother story. Delicious! Now if they could just bring the price down.

Jack Singer

I have an old barrel shaped keg with 2 holes on the side and one on the base or top. bottom of keg says Budwiser St louis mo, AB 15-15.5-661. Side hole has a solid wood bung and other 2 have valves with a diamond shaped stem. Do you know what type of tap that would open this valve? you can see an example here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Vintage-Firestone-Barrel-Keg-Beer-Stainless-Steel-Container-Cans-EMPTY-/112666798801

Chris
April 3, 2019, 1:22 pm

Hi Costas,

I would recommend contacting American Solera directly. They have many different styles of beers at their brewery. With so many different styles, the coupler is likely dependent on which beer style you're serving.

Chris
April 3, 2019, 1:50 pm

Hi Mike,

Since English Milds are typically served from a cask, there isn't a lot of information out there on the coupler to use. That also may be contributing to the foaming issues you're experiencing. I would recommend calling the brewery directly, as they work with that specific beer on a daily basis.

Chris
April 3, 2019, 1:53 pm

Hi Marc,

There isn't a lot of information out there on that specific beer, but as a German pilsner, it is very likely to use an A-System keg coupler.

Chris
April 3, 2019, 2:01 pm

Hi Tony,

When kegging a home brew, most people choose a Corny, or Cornelius keg, though there are other options such as cask ale. It would depend on the beer you want to serve, and how you wish to serve it. If you want to discuss the specifics of your system, our draft beer experts at Customer Care can be reached at 877.636.3673, Monday through Friday, 9:00 am - 6:00 pm EST. You can also reach out here.

Chris
April 3, 2019, 4:07 pm

Hi David,

That is tough to tell just from the pictures there, but our best guess is either a Golden Gate coupler or maybe a Hoff-Stevens, though we'd lean more toward the Golden Gate. Would definitely advise contacting the seller, or if you're the seller, the place where you originally purchased it from.

Chris
April 3, 2019, 5:14 pm

Hi John,

Our Guinness on Tap blog and video gives step-by-step instructions for how to switch between couplers and beer styles in the context of switching from a CO2 system to a stout system. Hope that helps!

Chris
April 3, 2019, 5:39 pm

Hi Mike,

Windhoek uses an S-system coupler.

Chris
April 3, 2019, 5:47 pm

Jenn,

Grimbergen uses an A-system keg coupler.

Chris
April 3, 2019, 6:10 pm

Hi Roger,

The specifics of your draft system setup can definitely play a major role in the perfect PSI to pour your beer at. However, as a rule of thumb, Yuengling and other lagers should be poured between 10-14 PSI generally.

Kyle Bieneman
May 22, 2019, 1:38 pm

David Buchanan
