Alright, this forum is costing me some serious change. Going to the panhandles and need to keep a keg going for 2 wks. Had a post about best options. After going back and forth, bought a kegarator for my rental house that I live in during the summer. I made one for my primary residence. Anyway, was planning on taking it with me to the panhandles but its just too big and thus gets me back to a jockey box.
I think a jockey box would be great for 1-2 days but for 2 wks, how will I control the carbonation. The keg will be inside but the pressure on the c02 has to be set high (from what I understand) to get it through the coil etc. This will likely overcarbonate the beer. Would I vent it periodically and set at low pressure until going to dispense, then crank up for the evening and lower back during the night/early am. Ideas before I spend more $. Thanks
