I tried a search, and maybe used the wrong terminology - found nothing.
Once a soda keg has been emptied of beer, its full of CO2 gas at serving pressure. Is there a way to recapture that CO2, or is it just wasted? I have a three spigot setup, and I guess the individual regulators must have a back flow preventer because I couldn't get the gas to flow from the pressurized empty keg coming out of the kegerator into the new full keg being readied to go into the kegerator. Would a jumper line push some of that CO2 into the fresh keg?
Is it worth bothering? I only have a five pound tank so it seems to empty quickly with the three tap setup and friends that like to drink...
