Great, thanks buddy. Appreciate all the help provided.

Cool, good to know thanks. Will be kegging this time, will purge first for sure. I do have a new counter pressure bottle filling rig I need to get acquainted with too, guessing I should reduce the pressure if using that?

Hopefully the last question for now. Once the beer is carbed. Do I need to vent the tank so the gauge shows it’s on 1-2psi for the transfer and set regulator to match so the beer flows? I assume by releasing the pressure this actually only removes the gas in the headspace and doesn’t mean the...

That’s absolutely the response I was looking for and so clearly explained too. Thanks so much. I’m guessing if I leave the gas hooked up, the regulator means it only adds pressure when it drops below the set psi so the gas isn’t just going to run out from leaving it on. sorry, I really meant...

Thanks @VikeMan that definitely helps explain things a bit for me. Though I'm not sure the foam had much to do with fermentation as it's been totally flat until I injected the CO2 earlier today. Thanks also @Jtvann - I did wonder about pushing CO2 through the carbstone as the sample was...

Thanks @VikeMan. I understand that transfer needs much less pressure to push through, but beyond that is where I start confusing myself. I had 10psi added into the tank, which took around 15 minutes, I pushed this in through the carb stone and the beer therefore became carbonated (evident when...

I went into my brew area this morning to find the pressure gauge just slightly off the needle, finally! I'm guessing the disconnecting and reseating the gauge last night and checking the other top tc fittings must have sealed a very slight leak. I've now pressurised at 10psi via the carb stone...

How long should I blow CO2 into the vessel before expecting to see any movement on the pressure gauge?

Great, thanks for these first steps. I have taken the pressure gauge off to inspect but didn’t think to push lightly on the bottom so will give that a try. My pressure gauge is screwed into a 1.5” TC with ridges at the bottom, but no hole (which surprised me). Am I pressing on this or unscrewing...

Hi all. New member, but quite a long time home brewer. I have just upgraded to a SS Brewtech 14 gallon Unitank and am generally really happy with the flexibility this offers. However I’m quite confused with the whole CO2 set up and how to best package oxygen free (I’ve always bottle conditioned...
