    Empty Tank

    Thats exactly why I got a second co2 tank. Just incase something happens and I go to poor a beer and nothing happens. I would think u must have a pretty big leak. Like already said refill and spray with soapy water, should be easy to find.

    New to kegging, anything I should know

    He said he had a taprite reg. When I got my taprite it said not to use that washer bc it has a built in o ring. Mine doesnt leak, and I dont use the washer.

    Which Vanilla Extract should I add?

    In my opinion, add a 1/2 oz when u bottle add it ontop ur priming sugar then rach ur beer ontop. U need tryal and error. 1/2oz is a good staring point. See how u like it then adjust.

    Which Vanilla Extract should I add?

    I just added McCormicks to a oatmeal stout I made. I put 1 oz into my keg then racked my beer ontop of it. Taste great!

    Question on setting up a419 on keggerator

    Thanks, I have that chart saved already lol. I know about the rocking, I just dont want to stir up the sediment in the keg. Ive read a lot of posts where people do the 30/15/serving pressure method with good results. Ill check it to make sure it doesnt get over carbed.

    Question on setting up a419 on keggerator

    Thanks a lot!! Would I be safe if the keezer ended up freezing somehow with the co2 and reg in there? How does my cycle time look? Comp runs for 5min and stays off for about 40min.

    Making my move to kegging

    Well I was thinking about that but I really want to keep the tank in my keezer, so the 5lb one would fit perfect. I also have a welding shop 3 min away from me that will re fill my tanks.

    Making my move to kegging

    Yes sir 3 kegs and 2 5lb co2 tanks. And im not worried about another regulator as I plan to use the 2nd co2 tank as a backup for when my 1st tank runs out. I want to always have a spare. And the shipping for all that came out around $50 so thats not bad. I know I can fit 4 kegs in the freezer...
