4. Set the barrel up and fill up with hot water and add e.g. PBW.
5. Replace the lid and flush some detergent through both gas and liquid posts and the safety valve. Leave for about 15 minutes.
6. Release the excess pressure and open the lid. Empty the cleaning agent (or transfer to the next keg if you are cleaning several at the same time).
