Re: old keg

What kind of keg is it? If it's a standard quarter- or half-barrel type
keg, you probably won't be able to put your own brew in it. You would
probably need specialized fittings above what's available in a homebrew
supply shop. They'd be very hard to clean at home. And, unless you are up
to making really large batches, it's probably way to big for kegging
homebrew.

If it's a 5 gallon cornelius keg, then, yes, you can easily use it. All you
would need are some quick disconnect fittings, tubing and a CO2 tank.

Although I haven't done this yet, you could turn a 1/4- or 1/2 barrel keg
into a boiler by cuting off the top and getting a cajun cooker to handle the
size of the keg.
