nice, yeah this is a great topic, because I don't want to die from **** co2. So that means you can force carbonate with good gas from a paintball shop?

thanks for the info. I went to AirGas 2 days ago and the guy that worked there told me that a 5lb tank plus the first fill would cost me 90 dollar. So i don't see where people get 50 from. I would be cool with a 2.5lb tank. I don't plan on kegging 365.

Hey guys, First off, this site has been tons of help. So thanks to everyone. I was wondering if you can bring a paintball tank to Airgas or Praxair (or any welding supply store) and get it filled? Or do paintball stores only fill those tanks? I'm kind of afraid to force...

yeah im going to. But thats because I don't have any paintball shops by me.

hey, thanks for the info. I found this. http://www.williamsbrewing.com/BREWER_S_EDGE_PAINTBALL_TANK_R_P1791C148.cfm But what i need is a piece that will push down the Paintball tank pin to allow the CO2 to come out. My tank attaches to my regulator, but I need something to press the pin down...

I know this has been done before, but I am in need of someone who can point me to a link that has the exact piece I need to connect my paintball tank (20 oz) to my regulator. I've seen what people say reccomend on othersites, but I'm looking to see what you guys ues. I would idealy like to buy...

I was wondering, does the CO2 need to be food grade? or can it be the kind from a paintball store?

I'm not, I'm going to cut the top off and use it as a pot.

my friend told me that they were aluminum. Is there a way i can tell if its stainless?

just a quick quetsion, I thought you were not supposed to use aluminum pots when you make beer. Wouldnt this apply for sanke kegs? I have a milwaukees best keg that I plan on using soon. Any info would be great. Peter

wait, so is there a way to fill these kegs and tap them at a party?

hey, I'm with you on this one, but I don't think there is a way to reuse them. it would be crazy if someone came up with a way.

hey, quick follow up. can i naturally carbonate beer in a corny keg with sugar?

hey guys, quick question: on the inside of my 3 corny's (all coke products) there is only one metal tube running from the top. Should there only be one for the liquid? or does the gas get its own tube as well? also, would i need to buy pin-locks since they are coke products? Thanks Peter

hey, how warm is too warm to keep your beer in a room to let it carbonate? B/C my house has an old boiler room and it gets really nice and toasty in there. Peter
