How to decompress a beer keg and remove valve easy way

How to removed gas from beer keg safely, and remove valve the easy way.

I'm trying to reassemble one, and your trick of sticking a pry bar in the handle to compress it is just the idea I was looking for. It's so obvious I'm a little embarrassed. Thanks

I'm glad I can help!!

@ACPro if I had a video of me trying to reassemble that thing before i watched your video, it would probably become a viral fail video.

About to attempt this with a fully loaded keg 🙌🏽

[@AlphaOmega143]

It worked out fantastically 🙌🏽 tysm

[@ACPro]

Great . I am glad my video was able to help you!!

[@jamesbailey5627]

Best video I found! However, when bashing mine round to get the ears to line up I chipped away part of the ear. Is that a problem when reassembling? Also how can I bash it to line up while maintaining the integrity of the tap? Thanks!

Bending the tabs will not hurt anything

[@jamesbailey5627]

@@ACPro Good to know! I was able to get it reassembled and it held pressure. Thanks!

What is the diameter of that steel tube inside of the keg, please?

[@ACPro]

I will have to mic it but first guess 1.5 inch

[@b.e.d.brewing3909]

Well, this is definitely one way to do it :-)

[@ACPro]

I think so too!
