    Replacement power adapter for Tower Cooler

    Anticlimactic ending... Found the original adapter. It's a 12v, 1A brick but I haven't measured the tip size. Thanks for all the help Lizard!

    Replacement power adapter for Tower Cooler

    Great advice, especially the idea of opening the box (picture me slapping my forecranium), thank you very much. I think I do have an old PS at home somewhere, I'll give that a shot. In the interim I'll measure the socket. I was afraid of burning up the fan but doubt I will at that low a...

    Replacement power adapter for Tower Cooler

    Unfortunately there's nothing marked - it's kind of a homebuilt project box built by a guy and sold on a website. I'm assuming it's a 110V - 5V adapter but don't know for sure. I'll ping the site again and see if I get a response. Thanks though!

    Replacement power adapter for Tower Cooler

    I bought a keg tower cooler from TowerCooler.com a couple of years back and have misplaced the power adapter after a few moves. Does anyone know the specs (plug size, output)? I've emailed but haven't heard back from them in a couple of days. Thanks. Jim

    New baby labels?

    Grog tag looks like a great option. Love the Dominator and Porter labels too. Thanks!

    New baby labels?

    Sort of appropriate for this forum... My wife and I are expecting out first child (boy!) and I'd like to distribute some "It's a Boy!" homebrew. Has anyone made or bought some good labels for something like this?

    Ack! My new tap handles won't fit!

    I had the same issue with the exact same setup. If you use 2 chalkboard handles on the outboard taps it works fine. Just rotate the chalkboard handles about 45 degrees away from each other then tighten the nuts. You can still even fit a normal black handle on the center. Iv also seen a few...

    Keg purchase surprise

    I didn't see anything to that effect, but that would suck. Cleaning/sanitizing would be more difficult.

    Keg purchase surprise

    That's what I was thinking - they fulfilled the order even though they're all out of used ball locks. Great way to do business though!

    Keg purchase surprise

    I recently placed an order with Northern Brewer for, among many other things, a used ball lock keg. My order arrived yesterday and to my pleasant surprise instead of receiving the usual beat up, dented, scratched, broken-rubber-handle keg, I received a nearly brand new Italian soda-style strap...

    Finding the leak!

    Found it! Well, found them! Some loose fittings in the wye splitter and one of the hose barbs, starsan of course did the trick. I was glad I was able to narrow it down by turning off the air and closing the outlet valves. Didn't make sense that after doing so the high pressure gauge would...

    Finding the leak!

    First, good to know that if my reg high side pressure drops it's not abnormal. My only concern is it does this even with all gas line shutoff valves closed, ie the only pressure should be inside the regulator itself. Is that still normal with a Taprite reg? I'll redo my connections again...

    Finding the leak!

    I'm trying to isolate a leak in my setup. Currently I have a dual body, regulator with high pressure gauge. This is connected to 3 kegs, 1 body to 1 keg, 1 body to 2 kegs via a wye spitter. The other night I came home to an empty system, about 10 days after making the mods from a 2 tap to 3 with...

    Is this a fair deal?

    Interesting - check out this ad on CL: http://eastnc.craigslist.org/app/3083509030.html Exactly the same photo, but the CL seller calls it a Keg King. Not the same person as the locations are different. Knowing how CL works, I'm betting he ripped off the OP's photo!
