    Easy question, but I wasn't able to find it. I'm sure the 'similar threads' at the bottom will probably have it. (Its better then search!)

    I want to monitor the pressure in a corny keg that may or may not be attached to gas. Basically a low pressure gauge connected to a quick disconnect, but I have no idea what parts I'm looking for.

    Obviously a quick disconnect and a low pressure guage, but what joins them?

    It'd be like NPT --> ?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    riverfrontbrewer had it right. Williams Brewing was the way to go. Much cleaner pressure tester. The one from Northern looked like a kludge and was way more expensive. I got two from Williams for the same price as one from Northern and they look pretty nice. Northern didn't include the quick disconnect.
