co2

Hey all, New to the forums here. I'm two 5 gallon batches into moving to a kegging set up. Not even through the second batch I realized I'm already out of CO2. From the CO2 swap place I go to - apparently one of the canisters should last 5 or more 5 gallon batches. So, I'm trying to find the...

Hello! I've just started getting my kegging equipment together. I've got all the pieces, I've stuck the collar on my freezer and got some CO2. I drink a few litres of Sparkling water a week so I bought a carbonation cap to carb my own from now on. I carbed up the first bottle yesterday, I got...

is there any general guidance for the volume of gas being sucked back when cold crashing? E.g. if I have a 6.5g carboy and 5.5g of beer, and I cold crash from 68F to 35F, what volume of gas should I expect to suck-back? if this is pretty constant and predictable, I'd like to create a large...

Hi! Everytime I use my Beergun and give each bottle a good spray with CO2 before filling the beer, the carbonation take forever. Sometimes up to 3-4 months. I use the same amount of primer as I always do. The only differense is the lack of oxygen in the bottle. Is that the reason? Does anyone...

Hello everybody. Just trying to make a shelf stable fizzy hop water for events where alcohol is frowned upon (and to save money!). Hope you guys can help! Reading a ton of blogs about how to make this, mainly these articles (not exhaustive) help give an idea about how to make this stuff at...

Hello all! Been a long time since I posted anything. Have not really been active in the homebrew scene for a while, but getting ready to get back on the horse (or induction burner rather). While going through and reorganizing my brewery, I wanted to do an overhaul of my keezer. When I popped...

Just started getting into kegging. My regulator has a range of "Order gas" at or below 500 psi. Assuming a 5 lb co2 tank and brewing a moderately carbonated ale. How low of PSI do you need be able to complete carbonation? Would there be any left to serve with?

Hi everyone, I'm leaning towards picking up an Insignia 9.9cu ft fridge to convert for a kegerator. I am pretty sure I'll be able to gete 4 kegs in there. I'd like to keep the CO2 on the outside. Does anyone have experience drilling through the side of this one? I can't find a schematic of the...

Hey Guys, I'm new here but having some issues force carbonating. I know that CO2 holds better in cold but I don't yet have a kegerator and I read you can still carbonate warm with more pressure. I tired that and it works warm but when I bottle and put the beers in the fridge to cool them down -...

Anyone know what this contraption is?

Greetings, Typically I’ll dry hop in the keg or some kind of secondary fermenter. For scheduling reasons, I tossed the pellets into the primary and planned on just cold crashing to drop them out. To do so, I typically fill a balloon with some CO2 and attach to my standard blow-off tubing. It...

This is my homebrew keezer that I built a few years back. I am getting out of the hobby because I work for a professional brewery and don't brew at home anymore. This is the perfect setup for anyone looking to get out of bottling and in to kegging....cause bottling is the worst. Keezer: It...

I have two CO2 tank systems, one is my utility tank that I use for carbing my kegs, blowing out lines etc while the other is permanently hooked up to the kegerator and set at around 8 psi to push my beer (I have a 4-way manifold that splits the single line-in to the 4 kegs) So what I'm...

Mobile/extra CO2 setup for serving kegged beer. Selling off the remnants of my equipment Pinvalve(Paintball style) CO2 regulator from Keg Connection with ability to set specific psi. https://www.kegconnection.com/pinvalve-paintball-style/ ($58 new) 12 oz Painball Tank ( Empty )...

Pretty much the title. I carbonate only water and kombucha, 5 gallons at a time with very little if any head space. Takes about 7 days at 25psi to fully carbonate. I was expecting to get 15-22 corny kegs out of a 5lb tank as per the micromatic website. Noticed lack of pressure today after...

OK sort of a weird question but here's what happened. First time kegging and I was following the suggestions of mongoose in this thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/set-and-forget-carbing-and-temp.661277/ Note: this is a sanke keg with ball lock disconnect adapters installed on...

$65 shipped. Lightly used, in perfect shape. Sold kegerator. Threaded Pin lock gas connections included.

I've got the following situation. I've got a fridge to cold crash and store my beers before I move them to my kegerator where I can connect them to constant co2 pressure. I've got co2 available at the "cold crash fridge" but I can only keep 1 keg connected at the time. What i'm doing now is...

Hi, all. I know that this topic has been covered numerous times in general and that a lot of people have purchased these now-discontinued kegerators over the years, but I can't find anyone that has done this modification specifically with the Summit SBC-500B Kegerator. I bought this used this...

Has anyone removed the little drain fitting from their Danby to fit a CO2 line so that they can run their CO2 from outside the kegerator? It looks like it may be glued in their, and it may have a rubber piece that waterproofs it. I didn't want to hack away at it without asking. Thanks
