So I've got a couple of probably pretty easy questions:
1.) Is there an upper limit to the number of kegs that can be attached to one co2? I'm not planning on something ridiculous...I've only got two corney kegs at the moment but the ULTIMATE goal is to have a chest freezer with a swapped out thermostat with probably 6-8ish (whatever will fit) kegs.
2.) Generally speaking, is there a rough estimate as to how much co2 it'll take to carbonate and serve an entire keg? Say, something like "a 10 lb co2 tank will carbonate and serve 3 kegs"?
3.) Will I need some sort of expansion chamber before the co2 hits the kegs, or will the regulator do that? I'm an old paintball player and I'm quite well aware of what happens when gaseous c02 is used too quickly and liquid co2 is introduced to a system...I'd hate to think what liquid co2 would do to beer.
Thanks to everyone here...I've already gathered so many ideas and helpful information here that I'm starting to obsess about homebrew...much to the chagrin of my gf, who got this stuff for me a few months ago.
Muwhahahaha!
