You should be at 2.57 volumes the high end of carbonation for most lagers/ales. But still in the right range. If you always carb at this volume and like it this way your dispensing problems lie elsewhere. Your reg may be off, or your system does not have enough restriction to produce a pour more...

Looks like an old primary that has a flow gauge on the high pressure side and a cap on the output. For the amount of work to get it back to PSI and parts I would not bother with it to be honest.

If have threaded mfl just shut the reg off remove the disconnect spray the hose down and jam it in the carboy. Turn on and purge. Nice pic by the way Day Trippr.

Those are beautiful. Hires used them in the drive ins into the 60's. You added the Hires powder extract then the sugar and topped it off with water. The expense of making them work now would make it not very feasible. As a new homebrewer I would suggest passing. If there is any geek in you...

Don't care times two.

Good morning. I notice you are in Canada! Let me help make this painless and very easy: http://www.ontariobeerkegs.com/Four_Tap_Kegerator_Kit_for_Cornelius_Beer_Kegs_p/4keg-kegerator-pass-through.htm All our conversion kits with passthrough shanks currently are upgraded to Stainless Steel...

Nothing in Toronto is reasonably priced I am afraid. We get folks on a weekly basis from Toronto driving up to us, and a steady stream on weekends. There are two Ontario vendors that contribute to HBT you may want to consider. The first: beergrains.com And of course us...

My theory is the discs could be working as intended. But the kegs are exploding before 60PSI from the heat stress. Heated polymers are not as strong as a lower temperature sample.

It is my understanding it is the PKA (Plastic Kegs America) that are having the issues. Although rated for 60PSI with cold beer. I have a hunch nobody has tested for plastic stress and thermodynamic expansion from the hot water cleaning process.

Oh HBT Stripper pasties! Looks like a decent compromise.

Universal poppets should not restrict the flow, if anything increase it there is less material involved for restriction. If your connect poppet is not pushing in all the way to open the valve simply cut a coil off the poppet to reduce tension.

The bar and feet is not designed to hold pressure, just guide the lid. I just set the stones to the desired pressure and drink the beer the next day. The instructions are too much work. Keg lids are designed to work when under pressure. They are not faulty if leaks with no pressure.

I do not know of a brewery that uses NSF kegs.
