Hey all HBTers,
I hope you are all doing well today.
I recently was at my local hbsupply and picked up a corny keg, regulator, picnic tap and the lines to run to the co2 tank, and a beer gun for bottling. I know there is a pretty easy way to build one, but I am very busy w/my last yr of school and don't have time to tinker a lot if prefab stuff is available. I will probably build one in the future though, and possibly do a comparison thread.
Besides beer, I have some sparkling wine which I need to carbonate and bottle.
Does whatever I'm carbonating need to be cold? The owner of the hbs told me that it needs to be cold when I am bottling it, but that it will it carb OK @ rt, is this correct?
What psi would you recommend for sparkling wine? I was told ~12 for beer and the same for wine, but its nice to get some other opinions.
Thanks
