I just received my keg, regulator, fittings, and tubing today and I'm getting ready to keg my batch that's been sitting in the secondary for almost three weeks. I'm trying to decide whether to force or naturally carbonate my first keg trial.
The gas line that came with the kit I ordered is 5/16" (Foxx Superflex) vinyl tubing. There's an informative article from Zymurgy included in the kit that says "some supply outlets sell regular vinyl tubing, which will burst at the higher pressures necessary for forced carbonation." Burst at 30 psi? Is that true? Do I need a stronger line than this for force carbonating??
Thanks,
SP
