Hello all, I am getting into corny kegs and Finding the initial setup a little rough. I have a few (5) new high pressure air regulators and Im trying to see if anyone has used one for the co2 on a corny keg setup. will it work? any ideas?
 
I'm not sure what you have but I use a regulator that easily adjusts in 1# increments for serving. It's a 0-50 # regulator. If you have a regulator that is much higher you won't be able to adjust it right and will set your self up for trouble.
 
They are all 0-160 psi, I have used the same model on HVLP paint guns before and I can get a steady pressure of 19 psi after a little bit of messing with it. I did find a place where I can get a dual gauge co2 setup for 22.00 so I may just do that.
