    Flat Beer- Help

    Just did a transfer from a Commercial Sanke (blue moon) to a corny 2 nights ago and it worked great. Took about 20min. As soon as I started getting foam from the pressure relief valve, I caught the foam with a pitcher and let it keep filling until the corny weighed about 48 lbs which should be...

    Transfer from Sankey to Corny keg?

    I just did this last night and it worked great. Took about 20min. As soon as I started getting foam from the pressure relief valve, I caught the foam with a pitcher and let it keep filling until the corny weighed about 48 lbs which should be 40lbs of beer and 8lbs for an empty corny. Drank the...

    Sanyo 4433S for Kegerator

    Also, I didnt remove the top of fridge at all. Just drilled a hole with a hole cutting bit. There is less metal on this unit to go through than other fridge models Ive helped with so it was easy and I dont think there are any lines to worry about in the top of this unit. I just found the dead...

    Sanyo 4433S for Kegerator

    This should give you an idea. The digital monitor is just double side taped to the back. The smaller white wire is to a tower cooling unit that I made as well which just runs all of the time. I have my thermostat to kick the fridge on at 42deg and back off again when it gets down the 38. I...

    Sanyo 4433S for Kegerator

    I did this same conversion and I was able to fit my CO2 tank (5#) inside the fridge on the back little shelf and I have 2 cornys inside (see attached photo). I also used a Johnson Systems digital thermostat to control the temp. I drilled a small hole for the probe. I went to the back of the...

    15 Gallon Fermenter made from Sanke keg

    Not sure if anyone is still monitoring this but Im a bit new to brewing. Someone mentioned that the advantage of using the Sanke is that you dont have to use a carboy as a secondary. As I understand it, part of the reason to transfer from your bucket to a carboy is to get rid of a lot of that...

    Need help with Johnson Controls A419 Settings

    Need help with Johnson Controls A419 Settings

    so the way yours is set up is if your SP is say 40 deg, its going to kick on at 41 deg, correct? So you change any of the other settings on there Asd, Ofs etc? Thanks

    Need help with Johnson Controls A419 Settings

    I just got this unit. Im curious to know how most people set this up in terms of "cut in at set point" vs "cut out at set point". In my mind I would want it set to cut out at set point, and then set the SP at my desired temp but Im just checking. With the diff, if I set it at say 4 I assume...

    Do I have a broken Regulator?

    Along the regulator, it has 2 gauges, 1 for PSI to the tanks and 1 to tell how full the CO2 tank is. I just got this tank filled on Thurs but the needle on the gauge basically says near empty. How the heck does this regulator even know what size tank its hooked to? Is there a way set it to...

    Draft Tower Cooling wired directly to Fridge?

    In order to get proper room in my kegerator I had to move the thermostat/lightbulb box anyway and relocate it. I spliced in about an extra 5 in of wire as well to make this easier and removed the bulb as it would stay on all the time due to where the unit now sits. Since i have a draft tower...
