    Just speculating but the gas bottle will have to have the top valve removed to get the liquid out. Since you are dealing with high pressure compressed gas I would take it to a compressed gas supplier and have them perform this operation. If it is a paintball cylinder throw it out and chalk it...

    Compact tap and CO2 regulator for PicoBrew Serving Keg?

    You are better off using the brew kegs for serving. The pico serving kegs are a pain to dispense from with the CO2 regular Pico sells. For the 5 lb CO2 cylinder you will need a gas regulator to control pressure, some gas line, clamps and a gas (grey) ball lock connector for the brewing kegs...

    I struggled with this as well. But after watching the video on the PicoFerm support page, I discovered what I think I was doing wrong. I use a windows machine with firefox so your situation might be different. People seem to have better success with laptop rather than a mobile device for...

    How many days carbonation supposed to last in serving keg

    Marc, I am assuming you are talking about a Pico Serving Keg. If you are you might be better served posting thidunder the Picobrew Pico thread by jrb03. You can gt more input quicker. If you are refering to a Pico serving keg, what you have posted is completely normal. First, I would wait...

    I think it all depends on what you are ordering and the ingredients they have available. I ordered Denny's Imperial Bourbon Vanilla Porter on 12/12. Shipped on 12/16, Arrived on 12/26.

    Welcome to the forum!! I have a Pico S and have ball lock (Corney Kegs) for brewing/fermenting and serving. But yes ball lock kegs are much better for that than the serving kegs. So if you can convert your Kergerator go for it. With a Pico sized single batch you can get away with 1.75 gallon...

    Might want to recheck your numbers, the OG for Half Squeezed is 1.057. His gravity was 1.052. Pico states that the pac should hit within .005 of the specified OG. I have brewed other paks when the grain was not fully wet and found that my OG was within a few <0.003 of the specified OG. I...

    Don should have read through the posts here or the FAQ section on the Facebook group to better understand on how to brew good beer on the Pico. It has been well documented here not to add the whole packet of US 05 yeast. Dry hopping should take place after fermentation a minimum of 7 days (he...

    The last 2 paks I brewed I checked the OG for the first time. I shake the pak and add the DME back just as you have stated. The Stingray IPA pak was wet in all the corners OG was 1.065 compared to a stated value of 1.070. The second pak (Rouge Dead Guy) was a different story. I cranked the...

    macgyuver I am thinking of removing the barb from the mini regulator from PicoBrew. How hard was it to remove? I have read that it is extremely difficult and required a vice to hold the regulator body. Was that your experience?
