    Filling my own 5lb CO2 tanks

    I had an extra regulator that I had parted out so I thought I would be frugal and use the CGA320 adapter that was on it. I received the paintball adapter and 1/4 to 1/8 adapter in the mail. I was happy to get started taking the CGA320 adapter off my old regulator and put this apparatus...

    Homebrewstuff.com has the tri-clad 1.2mm SS 15 gal with valve and thermomter discoutned to 189.99 due to some cosmetic issues on the welds, guaranteed not to leak. Picture appears to be the same ones I bought from morebeer for a lot more. I ordered one to give it a go, I weld so I've not got...

    Too long in Star San?

    I know tap water will turn star san cloudy over time which is why I use distilled in my spray bottles. As for the chalky residue, just as with the foam, I don't beleive it to be a problem. If in doubt, I suppose you could rinse if off with fresh water and do again but I think you should be ok.

    1) Below is a pic of the inside. You can see the power supply on the left hand side which is used to power the LED. I disasembled an extra phone charger I had lying and broke it down to just the board. I soldered directly to the board on the 120V side and spliced on the 12V side Fuse and...

    Homebrew Supply Websites

    I too am impressed with morebeer. I'd love to have a local brew shop to visit but in my overseas location, I don't have that luxury. I have ordered from morebeer and they have always been able to ship to me in a quick manner. I had one issue with a leaking weld on a stainless kettle and they...
