FLOTit 2.0 Floating Dip Tube - No Beer Left Behind

In this review of the FLOTit 2.0 floating dip tube, the bottom line is simple: it is for homebrewers who want clearer pours and less beer waste without modifying their keg or reaching inside. The FLOTit 2.0 stands out because it keeps connections outside the keg and uses a double filter inlet to prevent clogging and deliver a clear first pour, which addresses two common headaches: sediment in the glass and having to dump the first servings. For anyone bottling or serving from corny kegs, this product aims to preserve beer clarity and maximize usable beer.

Key Features

• No-arm-in-keg: All connections are made outside the keg so users do not need to reach inside or modify the keg interior, making installation cleaner and faster.
• Double filter inlet: The 500/300 micron filters keep hop particles and yeast from reaching the poppet valve, reducing clogging and ensuring clearer pours.
• No beer dumping: The floating design draws clearer beer from the top so you can serve the first pour instead of discarding it as sediment-laden.
• No added weight needed: The tube floats and stabilizes on its own so there is no requirement to attach extra weight to prevent foaming.
• Minimal beer left behind: The unique shape is engineered to pull very little beer from the yeast cake, maximizing the amount you can serve from a keg.

Who It's For

The FLOTit 2.0 is best for hobbyist and semi-serious homebrewers who use standard home kegs and want to improve beer clarity and reduce waste without complex keg modifications. It suits brewers who dry hop or produce beers with sediment-prone finishes, because the double filter inlet helps keep particulates out of the dispensing line.

It is less appropriate for brewers who already use advanced keg filtration systems integrated into a draft tower or those who need custom-length solutions beyond typical home keg setups. Also not aimed at commercial systems that require certified industrial fittings.

Pros & Cons

• Generally reported good value by customers who praise flotation and sediment removal.

Cons
