LOL. also http://www.brewersdiscount.com/item5082.ctlg is a great check valve for a decent price. Terry has other fittings with built in check valves as well. :mug:

Just dropped the pressure to 2 psi to see if I could slowly fill the lines with beer and "condition" them for not foaming. As I watched the beer come out of the keg into the clear line I could see that CO2 was coming out of the beer and part filling the lines. I can't say that it helped...

Just plumbed up my new keezer. 9 foot of beer hose, 12 psi. First pour on all 4 taps came out mostly foam. Good thing I had a pitcher. Settled and tasted just fine. Hoses were still filled with foam at end of pour. 1/2 hr later hoses are 1/2 air & 1/2 beer. Didn't see this with first...

Bought 5" brackets and bent them up to retain. Fits in dishwasher nicely!!!

Dayummmm, that's alcohol abuse.

I added 4 secondary regulators after my 4 way manifold for my 4 keg keezer. Now I have more places that can leak. I hope I'm happy with it.

Collar, attached to the freezer not the lid. that's my 2¢

done it twice. more cleaning to do when keg goes empty. been using CO2 since.

[/size] lol!!!

like this one ??????

another thought,,, If your keg is carbed to high levels, your regulator is non-relieving, and you don't have a check-valve, the pressure can back up from the CO2 eczaping the beer and pressurize the regulator.

I had a regulator do the same. It was a brandy new watts secondary. I took it apart and put it back together. All is fine now. I think the poppet was not moving freely enough to move the diaphram freely.

Just when I thought I had a decent hang on this home brewing stuff...... Nitro beer,,,, what's a nitro beer? What am I missing out on?

My tank was outside (~40°F) and reading about 400. I moved it inside to warm up overnight and it went to ~800. My second tank was about the same and it it didn't change when becoming warmer. It went empty a week later. Sooooo, vapor pressure on CO2 does change with temp. When I force carb...

Got two cats that like to scratch their faces on things. Got two tap handles on my old kegerator. Saw dammed cat rubbing dammed face on edge of nice handle. Pictured 10 gallons of great homebrew on floor...... Connected two small bungie cords between tower and handles. It...

How do you remove it for cleaning (running it thru the dishwasher)?

Quaffer, (& others) I see you have the Bar Producs 19" drip tray sitting on corner brackets. Is it just sitting there with gravity holding it in place? If so, have you ever knoched it off?? Eisendrath

Got the 2x10 collar stained yesterday and first coat of polyurethane on today. The minwax red mahogany stain really didn't come out too red. But it looks ok anyway. Tonight I keg a smoked porter and an alaskan amber clone. Less than a week from now it'll be together and those two will join...

Quaffer, you have another desciple. Got my black Kenmore 8.8 today. Rest of parts on the way. Thanks for all the great advice and instruction. Is there anything you would have done differently if starting over??? :mug: Eisendrath!

Got about 5 feet of 3/16 hose and one swizle in each keg at 12 - 15 psi. Get 1/2" of foam. Love it!
