Expanding CO2 Regulator

[Normans54]

Hey everybody,

I currently have a two tap kegerator but my taprite CO2 regulator only has one keg pressure gauge. I currently have a manifold that distributes the CO2 to the two kegs, but obviously they both have to be at the same pressure. I have seen secondary regulators out there that I would attach to my manifold, but I am wondering if there is any way that I can expand my existing single gauge regulator and turn it into a dual gauge regulator? Thanks so much!

I just bought a 2 regulator version and sold my single. Cost diff between the 2 was about 40 dollars.

I have my single go off the CO2 bottle then it feeds to my 4 regulator to feed 4 kegs. I am thinking of adding a manifold between the two to force carb other kegs but that may be down the road.

Yes, you can, its pretty simple plumbing. Just look closely at a dual reg set up.

You'll need one of these.

How many different pressures do you want to serve at? That's how many regulators you'll need, either primary or secondary ones.

Now one could get by using different line lengths, in-line flow restrictors, and/or flow control faucets. So all kegs get pressurized at the highest needed psi, and the line/restrictors/faucets bring it down to the desired (lower) pressure for each. Yes? No?
