okay cost be damned. I'll just get the necessities... now could one of you gentlemen maybe direct me to some links on YouTube to ensure that I don't screw anything up my first time setting everything up and purging the oxygen and carbonating, all that good stuff, and maybe some links to all the...

I guess the same question applies here. Can I use a pump tap then if the priming sugar wont suffice?

I have a chest feezer with one of those temperature regulator devices to keep the kegs cool, could I just carbonate them with corn sugar and use the pump style taps? or do I need the co2 to cause enough pressure to force the beer out?

I never thought of using priming sugar to carbonate the batch inside the keg instead of with a co2 tank, I think I'll just start there and get two picnic taps. Is there anything wrong with that? Is is there any benefit of using a co2 tank to carbonate instead? I guess I just don't understand...

okay so assuming my check list is complete aside from however many on and off valves (that are also check valves) i need, could one of you fine gentlemen please send me a list of links to some quality products for all those things I listed/need

Ok so no i dont need to force carbonate, assuming its faster than priming sugar (although it does seem appealing to get it done as fast as possible) Just trying to penny pinch which is why I was thinking 2 regulators (assuming they arent cheap, im also tryin to do it with as few parts as...

how would it be fermenting and not create any gas?

i know i know, just finished buying all the noob stuff, but that (not being absolutely neccesary) didnt get purchased right away...soon, soon

ps Has anyone ever mixed 2 yeasts together? If so what happened?

haha we'll see rescuedog, and what i mean by "sat out" is that i fell asleep waiting for the wort to cool down to 70 and the yeast ended up sitting out for 20 hrs or so (now that i think about it, it was more like 20 not 24) before pitching it

I was using some yeast, california liquid ale yeast (i was told). I was recycling it quite a few times (6-7 times) and this last time it sat out for 24hrs before i pitched it, waited another 24hrs after pitching and there was no activity, so not wanting to buy a hydrometer i just said screw it...
