What students say
Easy to follow
This course is a very easy to follow introduction to kegging home brewed beer. Once completed you will know the parts of the keg, how to clean and sanitize your keg, how to fill your keg, basic carbonation techniques, and how to pour your first beer using a "picnic" tap. The course takes less than an hour but gives you a plethora of information. Highly recommend this to anyone who is considering kegging their beer.

Keg my beer
I loved it. It confirmed what I thought!
Good
I wish i would have watched this the first time I tried to keg my brews. instead I followed forums and got lost in many different ways to achieve good carbonation. Its very straight forward. the only thing I that didn't seem right in the video is that the quick carb. method is way easier than he says and you can drink your beer in a day or two and it will get better with time. I think his beer is just cloudy from chill haze which can be fixed with fining agents

Kegging
Good basic level kegging course. I've been kegging a while and picked up a couple tips. Good for the beginner who hasn't kegged before. I would encourage an advanced kegging course where details of force carbonation, service pressures, service line length and other nuances are discussed. Apologies if that course exists and I just haven't seen it yet.
