Thank you for the replies. Yes I am more scientifically minded than artistic, I tend to approach problems in a binary way hoping that precision and research can make up for my lack of creative talent. Thanks for the advice on repeating the process altering one variable at a time, I do find that...

Hi guys and gals, I have recently entered the world of pressure fermentation and would like to ask if anyone could chime in with any advice. I am brewing ale. Specifically TheMaultMiller Tribute all grain kit. I have set up a glycol chiller (home made using an oil cooler, pump, stc 1000 and...

Hi guys, quick update on my situation. Firstly, many thanks monkeydan, I ordered 3.15kg co2 from Adams gas and picked it up from a firm 12 miles away so I'm happy to say I'm going the normal co2 route, got one carbing up in my new homemade kegarator now. I read I should seat the lid with 30 psi...

This is all great stuff guys. Few links there I will read through, thanks so much for the CO2 links and leads. I'll keep you posted on how I get on.

Hi Broken Crow, Firstly, I'd like to thank you for your input, I absolutely accept I have very little experience in fermenting and especially kegging as I've never once kegged. I agree that to pursue such an experiment as this I would gain greatly from being able to draw from experience doing...

Hi Marc, yes, a pressure relief valve set to 60 or even 90 psi would seemingly ensure the pressure in the gas tank never exceeds that. I am going to hazard a guess that such a blow off valve could be placed inline to the regulator thus negating the need for extra ports on the keg itself.

Hi Kiwipen, thanks for the reply. Yes, I think a regulator between the two tanks sounds like a great idea. On the soda stream front, they seem like a really expensive way of doing CO2 to me but maybe I'm just a cheap scate, also, would't a soda stream bottle run out quickly on a 19L system?

Hi, I am a new member here and fairly new to home brew. I am just about to rack my fermenter into bottles, this is the third kit I have done. Already I am tired of sanitizing 30 odd bottles and have been having issues with some of my bottles not sealing and resulting in flat beer, I have no...

Hi there, I'm Rick and I'm an alc.., sorry, a new home brewer :) I have been fermenting 'kits only' for the last three months and think this is a hobby I will stick with and get more into.
