Hey Bros!
I am going to try and build a beer keg smoker and have sourced a keg. The question I have is that it states on the side of the keg that it is made from "NDIN". Any ideas what that is and is it safe to use as a smoker? :confused:
 
Be right back....just got an insatiable urge to watch "Marathon Man"!

"
Mini Keg - A mini keg has a storage capacity of only 1.32 gallons of beer. These kegs are made of aluminum and can be recycled after use. Unlike other keg types that you would rent from a distributor, mini kegs can be purchased from most alcohol retailers. They are popular for their compact size that easily fits on your refrigerator shelf. This keg type might also be called a bubba keg DIN-keg and Euro-keg
In European countries the most common keg size is 50 liters - this includes the UK with its non-metric keg system where the standard keg of 11 imperial gallons is almost exactly the size of 50 liters in the metric system. The German DIN 6647-1 and DIN 6647-2 have also defined Kegs in the sizes of 30 and 20 liters. A newer Euro regulation defines 50, 30, 25 and 20 liters where the Keg shape is usually thicker but less tall than the German keg specifications."
 
just wondering about the ndin material. kegs are hard to get over here so finding any let alone a stainless one is difficult!

Maybe that first one might be a clue as to what's in it.
The rest.....well....kinda. haha
 
It is either Stainless steel or aluminum. Hit it with a torch if it turns blue in that spot as it cools it's Stainless if it melts well... it was aluminum:doh:
