When is the keg full?

When I do closed transfers I go by weight. I bought a $30 scale just to do this but I find it comes in handy for weighing all sorts of things, like my grist, transfers to the travel keg, exactly how much is left in that serving keg, and even other things outside of the brewery. Nothing wrong with filling until it comes out the gas port except that it requires being more attentive when it’s almost full. With the scale I can do other chores in the brewery while just keeping an eye on the weight, always knowing exactly where it’s at. Not necessary but definitely nice to have.

This is what I do and it works just fine.  I use th same scale to weigh grain so I really didn’t have to buy another scale.
