As you know by now...I didn't win my e-bay bid on that pressurized line cleaner. Brand new....$65.00 with free shipping....dang! Someone sniped me and got it for $66.00.
Anyway....I know I need to clean my lines, and just on principle, I now can't pay $100+ for the the same cleaning unit kit.
However, as the Scotch Ale worked its magic on my brain....it dawned on me that I can now easily put liquid IN my corney. So...I did some checking around....but I wanted to check here also....
Can you put a quart of luke warm water and a 1/2 oz of liquid BLC IN a corney and use that corney for a "pseudo" pressurized line cleaning kit?
Gas in, liquid out....
Better yet...since I will have a two tap system, can I run the BLC from the corney, through the first beer line and shank, and apply a "jumper hose" between the shanks so that the BLC will flow continue to flow through to the second shank and beer line, then finally terminate at the (disconnected) sankey for the other keg?
That seems like it will work in theory...since it will run BLC through the ball connector for the corney, both beer lines and shanks, and into the sankey. Since the faucets have to come off anyway to be cleaned by hand...it only makes sense to run a "jumper" between the shanks.
What do you think?
