AIH New Double Rubber Handle 2.5 Gal Keg

I love me my mini keg!!!

Perfect size to fit on shelf of my keezer.

I love this this 2.5 gal keg. I will be purchasing another so I can split some 5 gal batches I make and then dry hop differently per each keg.

I purchased 2 5 gallon kegs like these and have been very happy with them. I recently purchased 2 2.5 gallon kegs so I can easily transport and keep them cool in a cooler to share my home brews with family and friends. These kegs are awesome! Don’t hesitate, just buy them!

This keg is well made, great looking, and solidly built. I have now used it several times and each time it has performed sensationally. My only gripe is that the "in" and "out" raised letters to identify gas in and beverage out are hard to see in low light as they are set in black. Since you don't want to make the mistake of putting the gas on an out ball lock, it would be nice to have higher relief or color coding. Adding a dot of paint on the out lock will avoid making the mistake. I love the etched writing as the label on this keg! It is a classy addition.

Its a great size keg. It fits on the hump of my Keezer and it's the perfect size to add Nitro cold brew to my setup without needing to get a bigger freezer.

Great shiny new keg. Smaller than I expected but that’s ok, and is easily portable.

I ordered two of these 2.5-gal kegs to expand my kombucha brewing capacity and will be purchasing more. They're easy to handle, carry, fill and clean - even for a petite lady boss brewer! I love that the opening is large enough to accommodate submersible tea or coffee diffusers, and I can reach down into the kegs to give them a good rinse between uses. I simply pour my fruit and herb purees into a fine mesh tea or cold brew coffee filter/diffuser, pop that into the keg, add my fermented tea and wow! the natural fermentation process takes off quickly and results in a beautifully carbonated kombucha beverage. I do occasionally use forced carbonation to add more fizz; however, the kegs are so airtight that my brews quickly build up natural CO2. I gently agitate the kegs once or twice a day to ensure that any traces of sediment or "ooglies" (baby SCOBY cultures) don't clog the dip tube. Extremely satisfied with the quality, ease of use and affordability of these kegs.

These are very nice.

Bought this for my SIL who is just getting into brewing. He loves it for small / split batches we do and also for carbonated mix drinks.

This is a great well built 2.5 gallon keg. I have another one from another manufacturer that does not use rubber for the handle. I like this one a lot better. The posts are nice and seem to fit all of my generic QD’s unlike that other one I have where they get stuck easily. I’ll be looking at getting another one in the future.

Quality product, great service; will buy from again.

This was my first time to keg a brew. I thought I would like to bottle half and keg half. When the time came to save time I just racked into two of these 2.5 gal kegs. Worked fantastic. They seem to be of good quality. I now have set up a cooler to hold one for trips away from home. Would like to get another one. Sale price is good but only slightly cheaper then 5 gallon due to shipping.

The kegs seem well made and look great. I haven't used them yet but am looking forward to having this smaller size available especially for transport.

Very happy with the product and especially the company. Outstanding service.

Have a few of these now. Nice kegs for the EDLP $$. A 2.5 gallon keg is always handy to store, transport and serve your homebrew at a gathering.

Holds pressure, nice and shiny! As advertised. Nice product!

I'm a 2.5 gallon brewer so I love these small kegs for my needs. The quality of the keg is as good as it gets. I actually have a 3 gallon of the same manufacturer and love that as well. I put a small dip tube screen they sell here over the end and I'm dry hopping loose in the keg with pellets and no issues. You can't go wrong with these kegs.

Great little keg for a great price. These 2.5 gal kegs are perfect to carry around to parties and events. I took mine to a homebrew fest and it worked perfect. I recommend also picking up one of those Gatorade type water cooler to fill with ice around it. You'll also need the CO2. I bought the portable CO2 canisters but remember you'll need a ball valve to fit the canister, which is something I forgot.

Very pleased. Clean, solid. Posts work great, which is nice since my Torpedo kegs have horrible posts. Perfect for leftover amounts that you don't want to put into a 5-gal keg, and is quite portable for taking on the road. Also works well as a cleaning keg.

I use 2 of these to split a 5 gal recipe for different beers from the same base. The keg is well built and have had no issues with it. Great value!

Very well built and functional small keg. Fits in my short under-counter refrigerator and in my picnic cooler.

Came very well packaged. Absolute perfect condition. Seal works perfectly. Can’t ask for much more.

Great keg! Perfect size to take with you. Fits in a fridge easy enough or in a cooler camping.

I brew in 10-12 gallon batches. Great to have an overflow keg to hold the excess without tying up a 5 gallon keg. Mine was brand new, dime bright and ready for work, which is more than some of the people at my office.

I ordered this so I could split 5 gallon batches for treatments, great for the jalapeno citra pale ale recipe. The size was perfect for my keezer so that it could fit on top of the "hump" where the refrigeration components are held. Solid build and handy hang tab on the lid make for convenient use of an infusion ball. I'll definitely be buying another one!

They work as expected although I only buy on sale or they are too expensive.

This thing is great! I have a kegerator at home and I love this little keg. I use it to make mixed drinks or seltzer water and the 2.5 gal size is amazing because you don't necessarily need 5 Gal of seltzer or margaritas on tap. It's shorter size allows it to fit on the shelf in my kegerator (which I made from a converted chest freezer) which eliminated a bunch of empty space. I also had a little mix-up with the shipping and AIH handled it very nicely. Will definitely be coming back when I need things in the future.

Sometimes you just have a few gallons left over and don't feel like bottling, but you want the keg space. Or you want to take something to an event and don't want to lug around a larger keg. Either way these work great for whatever the need.

I have 4 of these and love them. Perfect size, they fit in fridge and I built a jockey box around them. Only problem, I had one with a manufacture flaw that broke. I had a pinhole in the bottom and not only lost a keg of beer but had foam all over the garage. The garage smelled GREAT though.
