Thanks guys. I believe I will keg this one then, if it's not going to make that much of a difference. It will be nice to have a dark beer on tap for once. Now I've just got to save up and get myself a nitrogen setup. Then this won't every be a question again!

I'm currently fermenting a Chocolate stout and will need to decide the proper way to store and serve it. I have a 3 tap keg system, but I do not have a stout faucet or a beer gas tank. If I keg the beer, it will be served on CO2 from a regular 525ss Perlick faucet. Would bottling this be...

A week later and I'm out another tank of Co2... I don't know where this is coming from. I replaced the posts and their orings. I replaced the disconnects to the gas lines. I dunk tested the kegs with and without the disconnects connected. I submerged all of the gas lines and saw nothing...

I ended up replacing both the disconnect and the orings on the posts. I would have done it more scientifically and only changed one or the other to see what the real culprit was, but I just wanted a sealed system. :) I did another dunk test and I saw no leaks. I'm hoping that I've finally got...

It's definitely coming from beneath, where it seals to the post. I'm just crossing my fingers that replacing them will do it for me.

So after submerging the kegs, I found the leak, but I'm a bit confused. I have 3 gas disconnects and 2 of them bubble a bit when connected to any of my kegs. I took them off, but I can't see any difference between those 2 and the third good one. I'll replace them, but is there something I...

I have not submerged the kegs, as I don't have anything big enough to hold them upright at the moment. I'll have to pick up a trash can after work today along with another tank of Co2. They should sell colored Co2 for testing the system. It would make life so much easier.

I had submerged the hoses after my second tank leaked. I got nothing from it. My regulator is a taprite regulator. From what I've read I'm not supposed to have a separate gasket besides the built in oring. Is that correct?

I'm unsure what to do now. I replaced all my posts, hoping that maybe I just missed some leak somehow. I pressurized my kegs and sprayed the posts and all over the lid with starsan and I came up with no leaks. I unhooked the gas and left the kegs for 2 days and when I pulled the gas reliefs...

Hey guys, I got my keg system up and kind of running. I fixed some lose connections and some damaged gas in posts that had been leaking. I hooked up 2 kegs and my Co2 level stayed pretty constant for a week. I then connected my beer line to the keg and saw no liquid leaking anywhere, but over...

I used a standard hinge for my lid and the factory hinges for my collar. I added a simple latch between the collar and lid so the lid didn't fall open when I opened the collar. I also added a chain between the lid and collar so it restricts how far the lid opens. The factory seal on the lid...

I know there are a lot of discussions on wiring a love controller. I'll be installing one in the keezer that I'll be building. However, I'm trying to figure out the best way to route the wiring safely. I plan to mount the display on the front, but I'd like the connection to power and the...
