I took the first step on my road to kegging today. I bought a CO2 tank with a regulator and tap from Craig's List. I've posted pictures of the system below. I'd appreciate any advice on my next steps in getting this into proper condition. It was used for commercial kegs, so I'm going to need to adjust some of the parts, but not sure what at this point. And, it hasn't been used in several years so here are my intial questions:
Can you tell from the codes or size if this is a 5# tank?
What parts do I need to connect this to a corny keg?
What can I do about the gauge that's turned backwards?
Should I take it all apart and retape all the connections?
What do I leave attached when I take it in to get tested and filled?
Thanks or your help. I'm picking up some corny kegs that have been sitting in my dad's barn soon. Should be up and running in a couple weeks!
