Hey Everybody,
So I just received my first keg kit, a 3 Gallon corny, 5 lb C02 tank, regulator, hoses, etc. My wife walks in and starts reading the "Warning" label that comes with the CO2 tank and starts freaking out and tells me I can't keep the keg equipment in the house because it's not safe around the kids or in the house.
I live in a 800 sq ft apartment with 2 kids (8 months & 3.5 years) and she's worried that the tank will explode or leak and asphyxiate us all.
Is it safe to have in an apartment this small with 2 young kids? If I were to keep it stored in a locked closet would that be safe?
If it is safe, help me persuade SWMBO that it is perfectly safe and can stay in the house. Please, help me keep my keg.
Cheers (from a bottle for now)
