I just purchased a Robinair Vacuum pump Model 15101B (5 CFM).
I need to know how to regulate the vacuum pressure so I don't suck up my wine into the pump (which I just did) or implode the carboy. What set-up do you use to accomplish this and what is the maximum pressure that should not be exceeded to implode a carboy (especially one that may be weak form age or other).
I see now pressure can be controlled (putting my finger over it) via the small horizontal intake. Just need to understand the best pressure control value to attach and set to maintain a constant and safe pressure.
All suggestions appreciated - Cheers!
