Hooking up multiple kegs, 1 CO2 tank

[cjb]

Bumping this thread to ask a question here...

Why wouldn't you be able to force carbonate using the gas manifold? Unless I'm just misunderstanding "force" here...

If you wanted to carbonate 2 using a manifold...2 ales, say, could you not have one hooked up to serve at 10-12 PSI while the other was sitting under that same pressure for a week or two to force carbonate?

This only wouldn't work if you wanted to use the high pressure/rolling/shaking method while serving the other beer right? (manifold = 2 or more lines but all under same pressure?)

Thanks!

Right - if you're using the set-it-and-forget-it method, you can do multiple kegs with just one pressure. (And your definition of "force" carbing is correct btw, though it often gets misused to mean setting a higher pressure and/or shaking.)

Great, Thank you.

Just got a kegerator, about to get my 2nd corny and will have some beer to put in it before the other is tapped. Seems like a 2-way manifold is the way to go.
