I have never tried either so I'm just asking, have you tried the corona mill? It seems to have very positive reviews in the corona thread. If I were to put a drive package on it I would build guards. The guys on here I see with exposed sheaves and belts make me really nervous.

I am planning on picking up a corona mill soon. I have a 1/4 HP EC motor laying around that I can turn down to 300 rpm. Is 300 rpm too fast for a corona mill? I don't like the idea of putting sheaves on the motor or the mill as the bearings aren't designed for that load. Well, I don't want to...

That looks great. I am hoping to do the same with my single tower kegerator this summer. I've never done any furniture work before so I have a lot of research and learning to do first.

Ah yes the instructions. When all else fails read the instructions. I will start soaking it in tsp and oxyclean right now

I used Harris Stay Clean liquid flux

I just installed the pull through fittings from brewhardware. I used stay clean liquid flux and in the process got it in the female threads. Any one have a suggestion how to get it out? Is there a solvent that will get the burnt flux out of the threads? Its going to be hard to tell if I got it...

I measured the larger o rings and they are 7/16 ID and 5/8 OF which according to the McMaster link below that I got from the o ring sticky seems to be correct. So I seem to have gotten a ball lock o ring and some mystery smaller o ring as the pin lock should be bigger...

I bought (6) 5g ball lock kegs a few months ago and installed the o-rings from keg connection. They felt a little loose but they work fine. http://www.brewinternational.com/oring-ball-lock-stem-set-of-2/ I just bought (4) 3g ball lock kegs and installed the rings from the link below. The...

The washers with the large holes came with the regulator. The hole washers are the ones I just got.

I picked up a 20 lb co2 tank today and was going to switch out the regulator washer with one I got from BrewInternational. My regulator has a threaded plug that holds the washer in place and the washers I got don't fit. Anyone know where to get the correct washers?

When I put the tank on my scale by itself it said I had .7 lbs after subtracting the tare weight. I weighed it with me holding it and got 3.5 lbs left. The 3.5 lbs is probably more accurate. I messed with the keg post,, turned pressure up and down and everything seems fine now.

Solder it is. Thanks

I bought some of the M12 connectors below. Should I just be soldering to each side of the connector or is there some other way I should be wiring these up? http://m.ebay.com/itm/2pcs-connector-M12-12mm-3Pin-metal-audio-cable-aviation-plug-panel-power-chassis-/281126349197?txnId=1635581453018

I have put the gas disconnect on the liquid our disconnect before and didn't have any immediate problems. What could happen if you have the gas on he liquid line aside from possibly filling the liquid line with beer if the keg has higher pressure. Full sanitizer purge advocates such as...

Thanks for the tips everyone. I'll start doing liquid purged before filling to save on gas. Weighing the tank is a good idea, I'll see where that is at and so if I can figure out if something is plugging up the keg. I dry hopped in a bag but it certainly could have came open.

I'm using the same length line for both. The beer I keged and carbed a couple weeks ago seemed over carbonated at 12 psi so I turned it down to 11 psi last week. Maybe it is just under carbonated now. Still figuring this all out.

I just started kegging and had a fresh 5lb co2 tank. I bought a commercial 1/6 barrel keg a month ago and put it in the kegerator. I brewed a 5g batch and put in a 5g corney. Purged the headspace 6 times, charged to 30 psi for 12 hours. Bled off the pressure and found it not carbonated...

mnHawk was a great guy to work with. Thanks again.

Or can I use WD40, 3-1 oil, air tool oil or gun oil? It would be nice to use something I already have laying around rather than buying something for one use.

What is suggested for oil when drillling into a keggle for soldering fittings on? I see Home Depot has Oatey Dark Thread Cutting Oil, would that be a good option or is there something different I should be using? I would prefer to stick to Home Depot or hardware store purchases rather than...
