Hey guys,

As another club who has a few barrels now and has done a few fillings and
emptying if at all possible the best way to rak is with the beer in cornies
being pushed with CO2. We have done it all kinds of ways but have now
decided that for any future fillings and emptying that it will be done ONLY
with cornies and CO2. It is just easier, faster and cleaner.

Just my 2 censt from one club to another.
