This Low Profile Ball Lock Tapping Head Assembly has been designed to suit standard Stainless Steel Mini Kegs such as the following:
- KL06347 - Mini Keg 2L (Stainless Growler)
- KL06354 - Mini Keg 4L
- KL06361 - Mini Keg 5L
- KL06385 - Mini Keg 10L
This particular tapping head kit comes included with 2.5bar pressure relief valve, liquid and gas ball lock posts and dip tube with filter.
The plastic carbonation caps used in the tapping head can withstand a wide range of chemicals used in the brewing industry and relatively high temperatures (over 100C). The Tapping Head itself is made from Stainless Steel so will withstand harsh conditions.
NOTE: The 5L keg shown in the photos is not included. You need to purchase this separately here.

Reviews
Absolutely what I wanted, thank
"Absolutely what I wanted, thank you for everything"
Good option for tighter spaces
"Compact size makes it slightly easier to fit in fridge and icebox especially when using Pluto guns and soda stream"
Excellent
"Excellent service great product"
Can even work with a floating dip tube with some jimmying
"I wanted to put a floating dip tube in, I had a dip tube kit, but the mini keg opening is too small for the metal float. I made a ring of siphon tube, sealing it with a small bit of the rigid dip tube that comes with the tapping head, and looping it through the ring that normally attached the ball to the dip tube filter head. That fits through and works great as a floating dip tube."

"Being low profile is nice, but at what cost? I've had 2 or 3 of these because I'm insane. The silicon elbow is hard as heck to get on and often falls off. They all leak co2 to varying extents. And the semi rigid dip tube is such a pain, so I got better luck switching to silicon dip tubes all the way to the cap."
Great tapping head
"Great tapping head. With these I can fit 5 4 litre kegs in my camping fridge"
Leaks like crazy
"This thing has drained my CO2 tank twice. I’ve used teflon tape on the threads and it still leaks. I’ve tried them tight, loose, and medium-tight and gas always gets out somehow. Sometimes, I’ll do a sanitizer test and it’ll be fine, only to come back later and hear gas hissing out. Cool concept, but I wish the posts were steel-to-steel."

"Excellent little ball lock lid, great for my 5L mini keg and allows me to whack it in the fridge easily. Connections are solid, pressure release works great. Can be a little finicky getting the dip tube attached, but that’s to be expected on a space saving unit such as this. Overall a tremendous piece of kit."
Worst
"This is the worse thing ever. The connection comes off every time."
Q&A
- A lot of complaints about this is the silicone elbow, can the "PCO38 Gen2 Black Elbow Cap Insert - Dip Tube to Carbonation Cap Joiner (For Oxebar 4L & 8L) SKU: KL46985" be used in this kit too?
- It is not compatible with this tapping head, sorry
