Rigging Multiple Blichmann Beer Guns

agreed, all except the "no need for the tube in a tube" being helpful.
Does not have to be that design, but for commercial systems it is more important then ever to flush with CO2.

Budweiser doesn't flush with Co2, instead they inject brewing water at a high pressure into each bottle which causes Co2 to come out of suspension. Right when the beer foams up they cap it...

Probably not feasible at the micro level though.....

Before filling, I'd bet my bottom dollar they do.

Most, if not all, large commercial bottling lines:

sanitize
flush w/ CO2
counter pressure fill
zap the top with the water stream (or a quick blast of CO2)
cap on foam
rinse the outside of the capped bottle

I've only seen a few canning lines & never worked with one, so I can't comment there.
