The way I understand the CO2 regulator is that it maintains set keg pressure by adding CO2 if the pressure drops and purging CO2 if pressure increases.
My keezer is set at 3C (37.4F) - 5C (41F), 12PSI - normally.
There must be some expansion and contraction (and therefore changes in pressure) of the beer and CO2 in the keg as the keezer cycles between the two temps.
Am I using CO2 each cold cycle ?
How sensitive is the reg. (kegconn.) to pressure changes ?
How big a change in temp is required to affect pressure to the extent the regulator purges excess pressure ?
